The goal is simple. Sweep the board with spells like Rolling Temblor and Mizzium Mortars to kill off your opponents threats, all while building up for the grand slam with Master of Cruelties ! Lots of spells/abilities to make him unblockable ala Glaring Spotlight and Blustersquall . Augur of Bolas and Think Twice help you did in to your deck in the first couple of turns to find answers to your opponents threats. And let's not forget Tragic Slip is thrown in to help kill off large threats like Desecration Demon and the like. Cryptborn Horror is just insane when followed up after Master of Cruelties causes your opponents to lose all but that last, precious point of life, but is still a great play after your opponent causes you to sac your Vexing Devil or after you land a successful hit to your opponent's face with the devil, courtesy of all of the evasion you can provide him to get the hits in! And speaking of evasion, wait until you equip a lowly Augur of Bolas with Elbrus, the Binding Blade Flip and activate your Glaring Spotlight to flip it for a great alt. win condition. Mutavault and Rogue's Passage help round out the list. Constructive criticism and suggestions welcome and hope you enjoy!
