The same question can also be asked of cards like Kird Ape or Loam Lion. By mana cost they might be seen as mono-colored, but really they aren't. I put Kird Ape in Gruul and Murderous Redcap in Black, personally. I like that the hybrid costs allow me to shift a card to a different color to make room if need be. If I want to add more black cards, I can always shift Redcap to my red section, for example.
I run Unsummon over Vapor Snag or Silent Departure. The instant speed is a big deal, and the 1 damage from vapor snag is generally irrelvant or an actual drawback when trying to protect one of your dudes.
Already playing Wolfir Avenger also. Looks like Giant Growth should get cut, was thinking about adding Mutagenic Growth or Briarhorn. Thanks for the insights all!
1-Mana Black Discard Spells by Number of Targets in My Cube
Thoughtseize – 330 (lose 2 life)
Inquistion of Kozilek – 231
Despise – 178
Duress – 138
Appetite for Brains – 99 (exiles)
So obviously Thoughtseize and Inqusition of Kozilek are the top 2.
But does this mean that I ought to be running Despise over Duress? Or does black’s ease in dealing with creatures outweigh the 40 fewer targets?
I'm thinking Appetite is no good here. Exiling is a bit double-edged (you can Thoughtseize yourself to throw a fattie in the ‘yard. Not so much here.) and far fewer targets.
Is that all the targeted 1-mana discard that exists? I’m thinking of running the top 4 on this list though. Make sense?
I'd love to cube with you if you have the inclination.

1BB Sorcery, destroy target land.
This card seems like it could fit the recent push towards the "pox package". Obviously it's no Sinkhole, but that card is pretty insane.
Thoughts on this card? Anyone playing it?
Open to other blink suggestions as well. Already running restoration angel and veneer.
