So this is essentially a Fluctuator based deck, at least during game one. What you're trying to get out is Fluctuator ASAP. As a result, you're able to cycle all the way to a Songs of the Damed to get the mana you need for Living Death, or alternatively Emrakul, the Aeons Torn as another win-con. Usually this will nearly all slide as your opponent won't pack in many counters or Tormod's Crypt Also, another combo is to have any cycle land such as Slippery Karst out, tap it for mana just to have, play Dromar's Cavern, which resturns Slippery Karst to your hand so you can cycle it as you see fit. The Gitaxian Probe and Street Wraith are there to move the deck in turns 1 or 2 to cycle to that second land to cast Fluctuator . If you don't have Fluctuator in your game one starting hand, mulligan. Only mulligan down to 5, however. Usually, it shows up it the opening or after a mulligan, so drawing it is not a problem. Game 2: This is where you switch out your deck a bit. Instead of it being a cycling based deck, it's more an early dumper. Whether you side in the Pact of Negation as insurance, that's up to you. However, everything else is a must. The lotus petals help the early Buried Alive casting, dumping all but the one Demigod of Revenge that you hopefully have in your hand. The Street Wraith serves 2 purposes: 1) graveyard fodder for Songs of the Damned ramping into Demigod of Revenge to finish the combo and attack for game, and to work with Gitaxian Probe to fish for the other parts of the combo. This finishes your opponent off early, even as early as T1, if you get the right cards. I think this could be a viable deck, at least at FNM this friday. I'll update for the results!
