This deck has two main ways of winning. The first being the obvious play Torpor Orb early and play big,cheap creatures fast and win. The second path is having Varolz, the Scar-Stripped in play and using Lotleth Troll to discard your cheap,high-powered creatures so you can scavenge them and swing for the win. It is especially satisfying to win with a Birds of Paradise in one swing! ;)
