Worried about removal? Use Duress and other one-drop discard spells to make your demon nice and safe :)

I'm hoping 2 of these Demons puts some much needed kick into my Vampire build. I like this card because whatever the original theme of the black deck, this demon adds a new and simple strategy of last resort. Whispersilk Cloak seems a good choice in a deck with the Demon of Death's Gate.

I remember when I thought Lord of the Pit was the best. Stupid power creep. I'm getting old.

Swamp, Dark ritual, three one drop black creatures, demon of death's gate, tainted strike
1. Swamp
2. Dark ritual
3. drop three creatures
4. play demon
5. swing with a 10/9 flying trample infect on turn 2 (dead)
6. Laugh


Pros: Make opponent very angry
Weaknesses Unsummon, counter, and almost anything else blue. Also a chump blocker with flying could ruin the whole 10 poison idea, therefore hope for another tainted strike or equip with grafted exoskeleton later.

All you need is seven cards really and you have a magic hand that kills on turn 2 unless countered or removed, then you finished.

Great card anyway

yeah he would be so much easier to get out if Dark Ritual were in standard. Drop 3 meaningless 1/1's and then get this guy out. I run him in my vamp deck though. Kalastria Highborn with him reads, Sac 3 vamps, pay BBB, get a 9/9 flying trampler, target opponent loses 6 life. It takes a few more turns to get him out than it would normally, but i think it's worth it.

dies to removal? Just duress or mind sludge before you cast him. That's black's version of counter spells, always run a few.
