Train wanted a deck that ran with Nightmare, so here we go.

To make it viable, I've used Sakura-Tribe Elder, Rampant Growth, Reap and Sow , and Grisly Salvage to for land fetches and ramping. The idea is to landramp as much as possible, then use Urbog, Tomb of Yawgmoth to get an overpowered Nightmare . Until that point is reached, using the fight mechanic will keep the field under control. Prey Upon and Ulvenwald Tracker are the fight initiation cards, while Ruthless Ripper and Reaper of Sheoldred are the cards intended to combo with it.

The sideboard is mostly to help deal with specific decks - Elixir of Immortality for mill, Primal Rage to deal with indestructible creatures, and Savage Summoning for the control decks.

The swaps are as follow: Ranger's Guile and Mutilate replacing both Grisly Salvage, 2 Sakura-Tribe Elders, and one Reap and Sow vs burn. Elixir of Immortality replaces the Grisly Salvages and a Rampant Growth against mill. Primal Rage replaces 2 of the Prey Upon and an Ulvenwald Tracker for decks laden with indestructible creatures, while Savage Summoning replaces both Rampant Growths and both Reap and Sow s when against a control deck.

The maybe-board is basically just the cards which could improve the deck, but completely break the budget, so I've left them over here. If you were curious, these cards add a total of $360 to the deck price.
