All NPH, phyrexian mana themed deck.

Trying to keep it budget, else a batterskull, sword, or karn might be included.

The maybeboard are cards that work well in the deck, but arent necessarily NPH.

The meat of the deck lies in the pumpable creatures and the rage extractors. The pumpable creatures can end the game alone, but in combination with soul conduit you have a one turn win scenario. The rage extractors will do decent damage once the deck gets rolling as nearly every single card uses phyrexian mana in its casting cost.

The Norn's Annex and Spellskites provide a little defense in case things just aren't going your way.

Blinding Souleater and Act of Aggression provide methods of clearing the way for your dragons/immolating souleaters.

Gitaxian Probes are key to knowing when to blow your life on damage.

dismember in sideboard for creature based decks, swap for mutagenic growth.

Hex Parasite in sideboard vs planeswalker heavy decks, also replace with mutagenic growth.

I have two concerns for this deck: 1) I feel like it needs lifegain, but I don't know where or how to fit it in. 2) Its slow, maybe too slow. Turn 1-3 can be really painful, and since there is little lifegain and most of the abilities/spells have a life cost (assuming you want to get them out sooner rather than later) a weenie deck or fast burn poses a pretty big threat.

Comments and critiques purdy please.
