This deck is for winning through poisoning your opponents, I've been working on this one for quite some time, roughly 3 years now. If you have any suggestions, feel free to tell me!

Informational:

I chose Hapatra, Vizier of Poisons to be the commander, because of how well it synergizes with the way Infect creatures do damage. Your opponents will be punished if they block your infect creatures because they deal combat damage in the form of -1/-1 counters. Even if your attacking infect creature is blocked and you didn't get poison counters on your opponent, you gain a 1/1 deathtouch snake as a threat on your board.

Clarification on a rule about this infect and Hapatra, Vizier of Poisons combo, If a 2/4 infect creature deals 2 -1/-1 counters to an enemy creature, you only get ONE deathtouch snake. But if your 2/4 is blocked by multiple creatures, and they both get a -1/-1 counter, you get TWO deathtouch snakes.

Remember: Cards like Viper's Kiss and Crippling Blight do not trigger Hapatra, Vizier of Poisons because they are not giving counters.

Time of Need is in the deck to grab one of the seven Legendary Creatures within the deck, just in case you were wondering.

Key Cards:

Some big power moves of this deck are: Triumph of the Hordes , Necroskitter , Crumbling Ashes , Hand of the Praetors , And finally~ Skithiryx, the Blight Dragon - All major problems on the board for your opponents if they wanna win.

Improvements?:

Should I take out the five cost Bellowing Tanglewurm and switch him with the five cost Decimator Beetle for the synergy it has with the commander, Hapatra, Vizier of Poisons ?
