The main objective when playing this deck is to combo-off, via Thrumming Stone and Relentless Rats.

Other viable win conditions include but are not limited to:

Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx into Exsanguinate.

Cabal Coffers + Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth into Exsanguinate.

Activating Sorin Markov's -3 ability, then dealing 10 damage.

Coat of Arms and or Door of Destinies with Relentless Rats.

Creating large amounts of Rat Tokens with Marrow-Gnawer.

Wiping an opponent's board with Overwhelming Forces.

Casting Marrow-Gnawer with a large board of Relentless Rats, then swinging with fear.

(Note: Vesuva and Deserted Temple help when casting Exanguinate, due to Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx and Cabal Coffers.)

Honorable synergy mentions:

Bitterblossom with: Skullclamp - Sword of Feast and Famine - Sword of Fire and Ice - Contamination - Dark Prophecy - Grave Pact - And, in large numbers - Coat of Arms

I enjoy constructive criticism, and would love to hear what you guys have to say!
