I use this with Painter's Servant making all creature's -1/-1. Servant becomes 0/2. Shuts out pretty much every tribal deck my friends run, not to mention Engineered Plague(s) are also in the deck. Run Inquisition for flavor and it synergiezes with deck built actually quite well, and Corruption is usually the kill. Though my 1 Hatred has led me to a few Painter's Servant kills.

its sideboard material. play against white weenie people, then put this into ur deck. still, only 3 of 5 stars. why? first, ur opponent has to play white. second, because ur opponent has to play white weenie. third, beause a single crusade, glorious anthem or whatever cancels the effect out again, so it wont kill much, just save u some life. still a good card, so 3 stars

This is a grate card for multi color decks revoving around black and for such things as Drain Life or Smampwalk or evan the white cards like Angry Mob or Karma
