the deck is filled with indestructible creatures and is build around an enchantment that causes cards to be destroyed if they take any damage. With caltrops that deal damage to attacking mobs and Pestilence which becomes a low-cost way to destroy every creature on the board that is not indestructible when you have death pits in play. you use Circle of Affliction and call black to make it so when you get hurt by activating Pestilence you can pay 1 and steal 1 life from your opponent (making Pestilence not hurt you as much). Also giving creatures lifelink can do something similar without the cost when stuffy doll is out (Pestilence deals dmg to stuffy doll and it in turn does dmg to someone else which heals you from lifelink. Meaning as long as you have more then 1 life you can use Pestilence without having your life go down. Sapling of Colfenor cant hurt you since none of the creatures have attack higher then defense and is useful to help you get through the deck faster. However, it can be replaced if you can not afford that card and if you do replace it you might want to make sure the creature is indestructible or add a non creature (keep in mind this deck has few creatures so if you take Sapling of Colfenor out I suggest making at least 1 of the cards you add in another stuffy doll then the other can be howling mine, elixir of immortality, or whatever you prefer.
