2 stalking stones

1 Visara the Dreadful

4 Extraplanar Lens
4 Consume Spirit
4 Diabolic Tutor
4 Decree of Pain
3 Mind Sludge
3 Infest
4 Oblivion Stone
3 Phyrexian Arena
4 Terror

any advice would be helpful

I think 26 lands is a little excessive. Might want to trim it down to around 20 -22.

Four Extraplanar Lens is also a bit excessive. Two would be just fine. You have Phyrexian Arena to help you draw into one, and if that fails you still have the option of tutoring for them. Once you have a Lens in hand/play, the other three become dead draws.

I'd also swap out Terror for Dark Banishing. The ability to pop off Frogmites and Myr Enforcers is worth the extra mana cost to me.

Those are my suggestions. Overall I like the build of your deck.

Refer to post above. It looks like a good deck. Just one thing, lots of MBC decks are playing Mirrodin rare Grid Monitor: 4, artifact 4/6 "you can't play creature spells". You might consider adding in 2 or so. Remember that Stalking Stones are lands so you can still play them with Monitor out.

Hrm... I'm not to sure about this deck, whenever I play game with few creatures I end up getting screwed by not having enough to kill em, although I can keep them from killing me for a long time, I would up the creature count, 1 visara seems skimpy to me although u do use other semi-creatures. Food 4 Thought I guess :p If you do try more creatures let me know how it works out 4 u.

Grid Moniter is a very popular card in MBC but personally I perfer solemn simulacrum.It gets you more land,and card advantage.
