The main core of this deck is basically deal damage through the cruel forced discard of the opponent's hand. To do it, the deck has a set of sorceries and creature's abilities to discard the whole opponents hand.

With the enchantments Megrim and Liliana's Caress, deals 2 of damage for EACH card discarded, so after the opponent discard certain amount of card, the enchantments deals the damage directly to the opponent's life.

It also has complementary set of cards to force the opponent to draw, such as Vision Skeins and Sign in Blood. There are some B plans around the main core just to insure the discard madness. By the latest experiences, I didnt need to use it at all, the consistency of the deck works really fine, and my hand comes every time balanced with the main purpose.

The Planeswalkers Jace Beleren and Liliana Vess are there just to harmonize. They have abilities capable to help the madness, or even distract the opponent. But someday I'll drag them out. Sorry LILI, I Love you, but I can't handle your CMC :(

All the creatures have at least one kind of ability that help to discard or even make the opponet draw a card.

There are also some possibilities of combos. The combo pairs can be the Liliana's Caress or Megrim with the creature Jace's Archivist or the sorcery Whispering Madness or Dark Deal. If I set the game strategy to use the Liliana's Caress & Jace's Archivist or Dark Deal with Quicken, by the fourth turn its possible to deal more than 20 life points, of course without any counter reaction, such as permanents return or banishments.

This deck its not set finished. Im looking forward to improve the cruelty without losing speed. Current on , but someday I'll change for .Please, leave a comment! Thx.
