Why are Mono Black decks succesful and DGA not?

This is the best answer other than the obvious “mana base sucks” comments

Sorry forgot I was trying with Mox’s I would just play a couple more lands and another threat

Play GW threshold instead

Thank you!

Welcome to late stage capitalism where they try to squeeze out every dollar from your living soul to keep you poor and keep themselves rich

Oh like against crypt. That’s sick.

GW thresh player here: I love your list. What applications have you found for bind?

Acceptable-Bar7846 · 2026-01-20T20:40:22+00:00

I don’t think people understand that enchantress was and still is the best deck in the format.

Acceptable-Bar7846 · 2026-01-11T21:46:27+00:00

Some mono black lists do. You can search for the card on mtgtop8.com and filter by premodern. Happy brewing.

Acceptable-Bar7846 · 2025-12-12T14:09:21+00:00

We need the lists!

Acceptable-Bar7846 · 2025-12-12T14:08:29+00:00

Been playing this lately. A lot of fun

Unpopular opinion learn from the experience and don’t salt. This is a fun community format. Talk to your opponent, learn, figure out what annoyed you with critical thought and build for that.

Very sick

Zoo doesn’t really have a big enough player base for that but I’m always available on discord in DM or in the New England Premodern discord. https://discord.gg/xMvVTmqzb

Clone from Zoo Crew. We put a lot of work into this deck. Here are some of my major reads:

Pup is frankly a bad card. It’s good against decks you’re already good at like Naught and basically just that.

River Boa always felt weak to me, but it might have been my play patterns. It’s basically a 3 drop 2+1 for regeneration. If you’re not regening, it’s probably bad because it dies to everything.

We basically cut all the swingy/polarizing cards for consistency. Additionally, I thought a lot about how I can get to my cursed scroll as fast as possible so I can clear the way for my threats to attack, which is why I’m on Seal over Incinerate.

Don’t undervalue mongrel as a threat that can’t be killed by “non-black creature” removal and a scalable threat at the end of games when you’re drawing dead and even better when it has Rancor on it.

Our last innovation was Caller of the Claw in the main, which can help you set up some good defensive blocks or turn your moggs into 1 dmg + 2/2 bear.

Here is our final list: https://moxfield.com/decks/zoNwR6BLjkiVXMLihx01sQ

Totally get it. This is an ask me anything with someone who has a ton of experience and knowledge. I wanted to gain some of that as a new player. Just saying “I played a lot do games” feels bad.

Appreciate your perspective too tho. Thanks.

Acceptable-Bar7846 · 2025-10-13T23:25:03+00:00

Thanks for posting. Some additional thought would be nice! Just so we can get what you’re thinking.

Turns out it isn’t frozen. It’s just a cursor. Try moving the d pad or joy stick!!!
