Guys, I think I've done it. I've found the shell that uses the Knightfall combo the best. Others may have thought of mixing Life From The Loam strategies with Knightfall before, but every version I've seen has been focused on splashing the combo into the Assault build.

This deck plays super grindy. You wait out the game til your opponent is low on resources/removal, which is easy with the basic dredge/loam package. Once you think you can stick the combo, you can just jump on the combo train. Noxious Revival grabs back your Retreat to Coralhelm, while Haakon lets you cast KotR from the graveyard. While you don't often get to do the 20+ damage punch, Brownscale and token damage help to lower the magic number, while the dredge plan helps to load your yard with lands, too. The result is a very resiliant deck. My only issues have been enemy Leyline of the Void and Relic of Progenitus, as well as the very rare Grafdigger's Cage. If those cards start to be played more, I can easy side in cards like Nature's Claim, since I'm rarely racing life totals to begin with.

Anyone have any thoughts on this build?
