The main mechanic is to make lots of tokens and counters and sacrifice them all for fun effects, direct damage or other such things, then bring them back to life, and as a finisher, hopefully steal from everyone's graveyards.

You've got generation like Ant Queen, Creakwood Liege, Awakening Zone, Goblin Assault, Golgari Germination and Dragonlair Spider, which can all give you a nice supply of weenies to block, sac and do stuff with. Some, like those from Awakening Zone, even give you mana!

So you've got an army of 1/1? What now Einstein? Well you can make everything unblockable with Champion of Lambholt. Give lots of direct damage with Deathbringer Thoctar and Jarad, Golgari Lich Lord. Make Kresh HUGE. Even MOAR tokens with Korozda Guildmage and Mycoloth. Get them big beasties out with Deathrender . Or you can tap them all for cool effects with Skirsdag High Priest and Mossbridge Troll . Or bring yer critters from your library with Jar of Eyeballs and Birthing Pod!

And did I mention you can bring them all back to life with Cauldron of Souls, Mikaeus, the Unhallowed and Gleancrawler ? And if they happen to die with Flayer of the Hatebound, Falkenrath Noble, or Stalking Vengeance, then all SORTS of cool stuff could happen!

And then you get counters. Oh, the glorious counters! Corpsejack Menace, Forgotten Ancient, Primordial Hydra, Vigor, Vulturous Zombie... so many counters!

To put the cherry on the cherry, if you've managed to kill enough creatures, you can hopefully look forward to stealing at least SOME of them with Liliana Vess, Geth, Lord of the Vault, Grave Betrayal , Coffin Queen, Lord of the Void and Sisters of Stone Death!

Keep checking back for more updates. I play many games and will constantly be fine tuning my deck. Check out my other EDH decks too!

Did some trades for some pretty awesome cards from a really nice black EDH player today, so am swapping out some card pre-emtively before I build my beck good and proper:

Lhurgoyf can come out for Coffin Queen. As much as I love the art, Coffin Queen is better suited to stealing and the deck's theme of graveyards being empty and on your side of the board.

Then I've also got Butcher of Malakir and Chainer, Dementia Master. I really want to swap them out for stuff like Rise from the Grave and Soul's Majesty, but I'll leave them out for now. I also have Pox. If I ever managed to fit It That Betrays in the deck, it'd be fairly insane.

When I get Ashnod's Altar, Grave Pact and Phyrexian Tower, they'll all be going in the deck. Then it's a matter of seeing what else is ripe for being replaced.
