Key Word: Life Advantage The Idea is this... Drop the Forsaken Wastes when You have more
life then your opponent. You can gain more life by casting either first turn Ivory Tower, Black Vise or
Ebony Charm. The Charm mostly is used for it's first listed ability. (Target Opponent loses 1 Life and
you gain one.) But if you don't get life advantage early on, Drain Life, and the Orders, and Hippies are
also at your disposal. When you get the life advantage and the wastes are in effect, try to use the Rats
and pestilence to increase the damage. You might take lots of damage, but if you had a decent life
advantage before, you might pull out of the game alive. You also must use the "One-Sided" Damage as
well. You can still cast Drain Life during a Wastes. You won't gain any life, but your opponent still
takes the damage. Festering Evil and Urborg Stalker are meant to increase the damage done every
turn, and if you don't draw a wastes or the tutor you can use the "Evil of Uncle Fester" as a mediocre
substitute. The Hymns to our old pal Tourach is just some discard, and Ishan is just a beatdown
creature.

This is an experimental Deck I was working on, and basically, I have this deck in Library of Dominia
and I thought that I would like to get a critique on this "Thing" because I wanna use it in a t1 tournament
soon. So I just copied my Library of Dominia file, and put it here. I know it is a rather suicidal deck.
What do you think

Land
1x Bottomless Vault (I traded my Lake of the Deads, so this is all I got. Do you think I would actually play more then one of these?)
18x Swamp

Artifacts
1x Black Vise
1x Ivory Tower
1x Sol Ring
1x Zuran Orb (I know it's not restricted anymore.)

Black
4x Crypt Rats
4x Dark Ritual
1x Demonic Tutor
4x Drain Life
4x Ebony Charm
2x Festering Evil
2x Forsaken Wastes
4x Hymn to Tourach
4x Hypnotic Specter
1x Ihsan's Shade
4x Order of the Ebon Hand
2x Pestilence
1x Urborg Stalker

Any Comments would be humbly appreciated
I would also like to put a sideboard up, but I'm not well
schooled in t1 sideboards. All I know to put into the Sideboard is
2 Nev's Disks.
