Rat Colony deck! K'rrik helms the deck to make each rat cost just 1. You can cast rats for cheap and make K'rrik huge and hope to get some life back with his lifelink. Totally able to just try and play a fair rat colony deck but lying deep in the deck is a combo centric package. Jet Medallion / Bontu's Monument / Herald's Horn all are here to make each rat cost that 1 less and with K'rrik each rat becomes "free". You can then try to laser people to death once the rats are loose with Aetherflux Reservoir and Cloudstone Curio. This will net you infinite life and infinite counters on K'rrik in which you then just blast your opponents outright.

The final real combo with the deck is to just swarm. You can draw into or tutor for Thrumming Stone and cast a Rat Colony and hope you don't whiff and drop some of the tallest and widest rats Dominaria has ever seen. 29 Rat Colony leads the possibility to whiff but statistically should let the swarm make its entrance. Profane Transfusion is also a nasty card in this deck. Spend all your life to get a huge lead and then dump the damage onto an opponent!

All will be one. Blessed be Phyrexias Rat Brigade!
