Enter the battlefield effects + recursion themed deck aimed at destroying at least 1 of my opponents' permanents every round. I went with mainly ETB effects vs Exit the battlefield/die effects because ETBs are more consistent. Though I am may look to adding more die effects later.

Little things like Spore Frog, Sakura-Tribe Elder, Wood Elves, Fierce Empath, Caustic Caterpillar, Eternal Witness (especially to return Tragic Slip or Malicious Affliction) become doubly useful with Meren.

Some straight out kill cards - Nekrataal is cheap enough it can come back when needed. Bone Shredder with echo gets a kill and a counter without effort; as does evoking Shriekmaw or sacking Fleshbag Marauder as it enters.

Artifact and enchantment hate with Caustic Caterpillar, Viridian Zealot, Acidic Slime and Bane of Progress - not to mention Terastodon .

Some decent draw power can be achieved. Besides cheap enchantments - Elemental Bond , Vampiric Rites , Evolutionary Leap - which also to help sac creatures, Grim Haruspex and Soul of the Harvest can draw 1-3 cards a turn if on the field together.

Lots of searching for help: Woodland Bellower grabs several needed greenie weenies, Fierce Empath to grab WB or a finisher, card:Sidisi, Corpse Harvester, Beseech and Petition to grab anything.

Support cards for the self sacrificing/board control are Dictate of Erebos and Butcher of Malakir, which make it harder for opponents to attack into my small creatures or make them wary of putting good creatures on the board for fear of having to sac them. Grave Titan is just a favorite of mine as a finisher as is Overseer of the Damned.

This is built with cards I own, so it's cheap. There are things on my maybe board which might work well here if I grab them at some point. Suggestions R welcome.
