One part of the story is they are both a bit more resilient to removal than they look, where Red removal does not trade one for one with Archfiend and Sheoldred demands having the removal on hand because she limits the ability of your opponent to dig for removal
Well, thanks to the From the Future keyword, you cant cast him during your first, second, or third turns but that doesnt mean you cant cast him on someone elses turn
Invoke Despair is the game-changing removal spell you need in black decks
When your opponent doesnt have creatures to exile, it lets you reanimate your own, which makes this so much more versatile than its counterparts against creature-light matchups such as control
With the majority of cards being cast at sorcery speed, the control players job becomes much more linear, and in turn, the decks become more powerful
