This is a draw go control deck, looking to slow our opponent down and use a two card combo of Tainted Remedy and Beacon of Immortality. Beacon is also a stabilization tool, since it gets shuffled back into our library.

To also go with Tainted Remedy we are running 2 Condem and 4 Wall of Shards. Sometimes this, plus our man lands is enough to close out a game without ever "Combo Killing" our opponent.
