Very low-cost spells and deathrite shaman control the board early. Efficient Varolz-enabled Lotleth troll scavenge build late-game threats.

Built around Deathrite Shaman doing 4 damage per turn (2 to each opponent with 2 opponents), we spend a lot of cards on protecting our little elf - 3 Boons of Erebos and 2 Golgari Charms regenerate him from destruction effects and 3 Ranger's Guiles protect him from targeted removal as well. With two mana, most of these spells can immediately be used to dome the opponents for 4 again.

This deck never taps out - it always leaves one swamp up. With a little sandbagging of threats, whatever threat is on the board will stay on the board thanks to the number of responses available to this deck.
