This is a zombie combo deck, helmed by Varina.

Primary reasons to use Varina are the ability to sculpt your hand, esper colors, and zombies.

With the amount of Lord's in this deck, you can turn sideways to win. However, primary wincons are the numerous combos in the deck.

Combos include:

Ashnod's Altar + Nim Deathmantle + Geralf's Messenger/Grave Titan. Results in infinite damage, tokens, or mana.

Gravecrawler + Phyrexian Altar. Infinite Gravecrawler recursion.

Obviously Rooftop Storm is a thing.

All of the above work well with Diregraf Captain, Wayward servant, Plague Belcher, Lich Lord of Unx, and Vengeful Dead.

My favorite wincon:

Cephalid illusionist + Shuko/Lightning Greaves. Mills the entire deck. Flashback Dread Return to get Posessed Skaab, get Victimize, cast to get Sun Titan and any Wayward Servant-type card. Use the Sun Titan trigger to get back Phyrexian Altar. Sac Sun Titan to the Altar for a black mana, cast Gravecrawler, loop to win.
