My take on a edgar markov deck. The main thing is to drops tons of guys fast. lots of 1 drops! Then You go in side ways. Best way to play this is to go for whatever deck is the most threatening first. Eliminate them as fast as you can. Then work your way down. Edgar can't combo well. But we do have a combo available if you can't seem to reach the goal with combat and shared animosity or the anthem creatures.

We play to the strength of the second thing the deck does well. Aristocrat. We have blood artists, Zulaport Cutthroat, God of the Forge, and bontu's monument. With a good amount of sac outlets. The secondary win of this deck is:

Phyrexian Altar

Oathsworn Vampire

and Any of the ETB or sac trigger things.

You cast Oathsworn Vampire get a second creature from edgar. Sac both to Phyrexian Altar for 2 mana. When this happens you will trigger a lose 1 life, gain 1 life ability, allowing you to cast Oathsworn from the graveyard. With the 2 mana floating you recast Oathsworn and repeat.

The big drawback of the deck is because it's aggro, you can't divide your attention till your initial target is dead. We run some cards to protect against mass removal. Some spot removal to stop combo pieces. Bojuka Bog for grave hate. But we are all about the "get in side ways".

Update 8/28/19

Infinite combo was removed. I found it to be a bit of a distraction. We went with more of a turbo aggro approach.
