Dark Confidant Beatdown
Dark Confidant is a 2/1 Human Wizard from Ravnica: City Guilds, the new base set due to come out October 7th. It costs 1B and reads: \"At the beginning of your upkeep, reveal the top card of your library and put it into your hand. You lose life equal to its converted mana cost.\" This deck takes advantage of the interaction between Sensei's Divining Top and Dark Confidant to draw at least one creature a turn to overwhelm the opponent. Bile Urchin was the best one-drop I could find, so I added four of those immediately. It also has an interaction with Nezumi Graverobber. The Graverobber perfectly fits the role of an agressive two-drop, along with Hand of Cruelty, Nezumi Cutthroat, and Wicked Akuba. In the non-creature section we have Consume Spirit, Kiku's Shadow, and Swallowing Plague. These all serve as removal, while Consume Spirit and Swallowing Plague have the added bonus of giving you any life that Dark Confidant took away from you back. Kiku's Shadow is simply solid removal. I threw Quicksand in as some extra removal. There is no sideboard, but Uba Mask can be brought in against mono-blue control. Extra removal and life gain would also work well. The rest is up to you. Have fun with the deck.
