Drown in the Loch is one of the best utility spells because it can act as both a removal piece and a counterspell, although it is significantly better the more cards you mill

Black has access to both burst mana and tutor effects and so tends to play one or the other depending on what the deck is doing
Also, over the course of writing the article, I think Ive sold myself on playing without the basic Swamp, hence the mana base change, but you could play it either way
This just pushes the mechanic further and makes it even more central to deckbuilding
With enough extra ink, you can keep your other characters full healed turn after turn
