I decided to go with life loss on this one, but I also needed creature management. That brought up -1/-1 cards and some assassination. Protection from black is, of course, still a problem, but there are really too few cards that would pose an issue for that to become a focus. I can manage creatures large and small, and the result will be about the same, as I hammer away at the life my opponent has. The 20/7/7/5/1 curve is unusual, but it gives me a good chance for a lot of stuff early. A little card drawing and searching will keep things moving for me. The average cost is 2.00.
