I finished building Suicide Black today to put into my testing gauntlet, and it's produced fantastic results. It's definitely viable, and I'm now torn between what I would like to bring to the next FNM: Suicide Black, Soldiers, or Warp World (I love this deck, it's fun to play and has amazing matchups against a lot of decks.
