I f you want a rat deck which is simple to run and just about unbeatable

this deck is for you.  Just follow a few simple guide lines.

4x  Sewer Rats -        1st turn -   pay 1 life / 1 black get 1/1 per mana spent spend 3 only till end of turn

4x  Bog Rats -           1st turn -   cannot be blocked by walls

4x  Ravenous Rats -   2nd turn -  Opponent discards a card

4x  Chittering Rats -   3rd turn -   when coming into play opponent puts a card on top of library

4x  Razortooth Rats - 3rd turn -   cannot be blocked except by artifacts and black creatures

4x  Pestilence Rats -  3rd turn -   power equal to other rats in play

4x  Crypt Rats -         3rd turn -   deals x damage to each creature and player

4x  Dark Banishing -  3rd turn -   destroy non-black creature

4x  Aniamate Dead -  2nd turn -  regenerate any creature in any graveyard and put into play

                                               (other cards work great to like raise dead)

20x swamps

      Play is simple just try to keep as many rats in play as possible. Use your Ravenous rats and

Chittering Rats to disrupt your opponent as much as possible.  Get out your Pestilence Rats and

Swarm Of Rats as fast as possible and bash your oponent. If a troublesome creature comes out

trash him with Dark Banish, but be careful not to waste the card.  When you lose a Swarm Of Rats

or Pestilance Rat or see a good opertunity to get a good creature out a graveyard use Aniamate to

get it.  When you attack and your opponent is almost dead then during your last main phase use

Crypt rat's ability to kill your oponent.
