Casual, low-complexity, low-aggro deck that has activity early and a slow burn mid-to-late game.

Strategy:

1. Cheap army of Deathtouch creatures to deter attacks
2. Supplement with artifact and enchantment deterrents
3. Build up mana
4. Nuke / Lifedrain players

Characteristics:

1. Easy to play. Minimal triggers to monitor. Fast turns.
2. Skewed towards 2-3 CMC creatures to build deterrence wall early
3. Low annoyance/attention factor. No opponent discards, sacrifices, exiles, counters, etc. Deterrence effects only related to targeting this deck's player, does not lock up the overall game.
4. 1 infinite Exquisite Blood + Sanguine Bond
5. No tutors

Can reduce deck cost by removing these cards with minimal overall impact to deck:

1. Bayou

2. Exquisite Blood

Removing the above will easily drop this sub-$250 (as of May 2021).
