Trying to mill myself here. Spliterfright and Spider Spawning and Boneyard Wurm are my main win conditions here. Kessig Cagebreakers is also great if I'm able to untap with him. The plan here is to mill yourself using Mulch, Dream Twist, Deranged Assistant, and Armored Skaab help mill me out here, with Mulch doing the double-duty of helping me find lands that would help me get black. Even Spliterfright[[ will help once it gets into play. If my creatures die, [[Unburial Rites should be enough to get them back on the flashback. Since there is no white, I can only hope to mill it into my graveyard (shouldn't be too much of a problem here). If you want to budgetize this deck, taking out some of the more expensive dual lands should help you out. You do need to have some black, so a Golgari Guildgate or Dimir Guildgate would have to do if you can't afford the dual lands, or even just throwing in a Swamp or two. Sever the Bloodline helps deal with some of the bombs this deck can struggle with, and really shines against populate/token decks. In the sideboard, we have a Creeping Renaissance in case we're playing against a control deck, a few Gnaw to the Bone 's to help defend against burn (you can easily gain 10+ life), Laboratory Maniac as an alt-win condition, Naturalize to deal with any pesky artifacts or swords, a few more Sever the Bloodline's for good measure, a Spider Spawning in case we face a swarm deck, and Alpha Authority to help against control and make sure that my creatures like Splinterfright don't get team-blocked to the death. Any comments would be much appreciated, especially if you have some creatures you think would help me out here.
