Ravenrose on Greedy Ghost and Nightmare Cat

I love the name of the deck and this is definitely an interesting pairing. I do think this may need some more card draw - Read the Bones, Sign in Blood, Foreboding Fruit. You may need some extra protection; Sphere of Safety and Ghostly Prison come to mind. Maybe one or two boardwipes - Merciless Eviction, Austere Command, Living Death.

I hope this has helped a little.

ModernMonday: Alright, so I think / Knights is an awesome design to build around, although it should be noted it’s not really tournament caliber on the competitive meter, especially not in the current Modern landscape. That said, you can certainly make something semi-competitive if you make wise choices. Think, ‘kitchen table competitive’.

At a glance, you already have some great cards here but you’ve also got a few that don’t really add much to your strategy. Terminate is solid (although if you include fetchlands than Fatal Push is arguably better). Echoing Return is not that helpful. You don’t really have a single key creature that is absolutely essential to your gameplan, and you’re also not running a 30-of Persistent Petitioners style deck. I’d cut it.

Night's Whisper or Sign in Blood > Foreboding Fruit if you’re in black. Red has lots of draw spells, some with additional options like Cathartic Pyre. Speaking of Red, Lightning Bolt is a class A spell all around. It retains its usefulness no matter when it’s drawn.

Aside from that, Knights <3 equipment. There are tons of Modern legal equippables that can augment your knights in various ways. Something like Shadowspear comes to mind, and then there are Knight-specific equips that give a bonus to that creature type (like Steelclaw Lance which you already have).

Lastly, as a general rule of thumb it’s better to pick a smaller number of specific creatures that work well together and run 3-or 4-ofs as opposed to a whole bunch of different creatures at 1 or 2 copies apiece. Your consistency is increased and the deck becomes more streamlined when you can reliably draw into something predictable and useful each turn. I’d pick maybe 4 or 5 different Knights you especially like and run 4 copies each. Hope this helps. Pay attention to the feedback various users give; there’s a plethora of extremely knowledgeable individuals on this site, and I know I myself have been given fantastic suggestions by other users that I’d never have thought of, and my decks have been markedly improved just from other people’s advice.

I run a similar deck but I threw in some Bastion of Remembrance and Serrated Scorpion for chump blockers. Also use the black shrine (blanking on the name atm) paired with Vito, Thorn of the Dusk Rose for life gain. Foreboding Fruit is good to add also.

So, even with Vitos ability Dark Confidant seems like a bad fit for this deck. With 12 cards with 5+ cmc you could be in for a big slap in face every upkeep. Additionally, you have some underwhelming cards like Tavern Swindler and Foreboding Fruit. Marauding Blight-Priest and perhaps Nullpriest of Oblivion would serve you better.

Long time no comment, here.

Suggest Liliana's Caress and/or Megrim for discarding away your opponent's life count.

Underworld Dreams and Howling Mine ensures damage on the draw and that you have something for them to discard.

Consider Painful Lesson or Foreboding Fruit for more of the same, and maybe even Bloodchief's Thirst or Heartless Act in place of Black Sun for removal.

Cheers!

Vorrac Battlehorns >>> Loxodon Warhammer

Treacherous Blessing >>> Foreboding Fruit if no Phyrexian Arena is available.
