Control/tempo with recursive creatures. Just some of my favorite cards that happen to have synergy.

Creatures

Bloodsoaked Champion fun card (my Bloodghast playset is otherwise occupied). T1 this into t2 Strangleroot Geist puts them on the defensive or finishes them on the fly.

Strangleroot Geist GG has never looked so good. 2/1 with haste into a 3/2 with haste. quick double bearbear.

Rakshasa Deathdealer Comes down extremely hard on turn 4 as it can survive a bolt....one of my favorite cards to topdeck late game because it is so safe when it hits the board with an abundance of mana. Pump him two or three times while swinging and GG.

Gatekeeper of Malakir death on a stick, moving on.

Geralf's Messenger usually deals 4 life without swinging...and they REALLY hope it doesn't start swinging. big booty.

Scavenging Ooze scoozey himself. life buffer when needed, big boosh options/hoses graveyard strategies when needed.

Tasigur, the Golden Fang tap 1, play tasigur. Even at 3 cmc he is well costed and his activated ability is a bonus. Between the delve cost, scooze, and varolz I can control what remains in my grave and do my best to optimize.

Da Spells

Batterskull batterskill gonna kill

Darkblast dredge helps me, -1/-1 kills bob, recursion.....enough said.

Abrupt Decay oh, that card is bad for me. /tap BG

Maelstrom Pulse for when Decay can't touch it.

Bile Blight kills every token that shares a name, can kill 2 swiftspears, can kill....you get the idea. I run almost a full set because it has done extremely well by me...after you net 3 blood artists with one and come back with a victory....you start to like a card.

Dismember for when I'm not suiciding hard enough.

Thoughtseize y'know...so I can make them discard their thoughtseize.

So that is that. Sideboard full of things I have on hand that should make a difference, happy to receive any suggestions for mainboard or sideboard.

Thank you for reading, happy brewing!
