Been working on this deck for awhile. 4C rites, with a possible turn 3 Griselbrand which will allow you to draw into Borborgymos Enraged. with the card draw it will be easy to grab a lot of land and drop for damage... alternatively, Flayer of the Hatebound comes out of the graveyard for direct damage, and if you happen to get two coming out of the graveyard, you will deliver a total of 23 damage to your opponents face. Lingering Souls to provide blockers, Deathrite Shaman for some extra damage and mana source. Lotleth Trolls provide creature discard outlet and the rest is pretty much for self milling. this deck can be lethal by turn 4 but that's only on the perfect draw.

the perfect draw: T1 drop red source, cast Faithless Looting discard, Griselbrand and Unburial Rites. T2 drop green source, cast farseek for white source. T3 drop fourth land, flashback Unburial Rites targeting Griselbrand. end of opponents 3rd turn, pay seven life draw seven cards. T4 drop land, cast faithless looting, discard Borborygmos Enraged and Unburial Rites, flashback Unburial Rites target Borborygmos Enraged, drop all your remaining land for win.

greater odds for turn five lethal. what i like about this deck is that you don't even have to deal combat damage to win. best reach for damage i think out of most 4c rites decks i've looked up. feedback would be great!
