---

Main thing here is just doing damage and whittling your opponents down.

Combos:

Mikaeus, the unhallowed + Triskelion = infinite targeted damage

Show & Tell + Omniscience + X = free spells (I often use behold the beyond to tutor for these 2 + a powerhouse)

Strats:

Use sneak attack to pull out creatures for (next to) free, get counters on them with Marchesa.

Hurt yourself with lands/talismans in order to get more triggers with Marchesa.

Get out Butcher of Malakir or grave pact and let your creatures die and bounce in order to harm them.

Keiga, the Tide Star lets you kill it, steal a creature, and have both Keiga and that creature by the end step.

Not having Nicol Bolas, Planeswalker in a Grixis deck is a sin.

Oona's blackguard lets you deal damage, then empty your opponent's hand, win win.

Burnished Hart to ramp and thin out your deck.

Chasm Skulker to build up a steady token defence, and to coax an opponent into wasting a destroy spell early so others may survive. Plus it just comes back out and you get more tokens.

Black market for a huge build up of mana late game.

Defence:

Kira for safety from targeted spells.

Marchesa, of course, for creature protection from damage.

Phyrexian Reclamation for when your creatures die.

I could go on about each card, but you get the idea. Feedback is appreciated.
