I'm looking at the tools black has for land denial. If I go turn 1 Blackmail what will you show me? Probably a land among other cards. If you don't show any lands it is a good sign for the land denial strategy. Smallpox and Fulminator mage are good for taking out the lands your opponent is going to land. But how about taking it to the next level with Lurking Informant and Chittering Rats. (most good players probably stopped reading when I mentioned the informant). This way you can deny your opponent for lands a long time. Hopefully on turn 4 you can play psychotic episode off smallpox and live the dream.
Now I can see some weaknesses. The strategy can be fighting an upphill battle if you're going second. And the second game I bet your opponent will not show you a land, but if I find a way of changing the strategy out of the board maybe the synergy may be viable? I don't have much chances to get this tested in the near future so I really don't know if its jank or not. PLease tell me. Is there some way to make this work? Splashing a color?
I am petitioning for the removal of mythic rarity and boycotting overpriced singles. Sig this to join the cause for a more affordable Magic the Gathering.
White for Reveillark is a very good idea. Then you also can play flagstones...
