This deck is inspired after watching the always-awesome Jeff Hoogland play a more G/B control version as well as from the amazing Frank LePore's different iterations.

The idea is to hopefully get out an early Glissa, the Traitor with Ratchet Bomb to control the opponent or Tezzeret, Agent of Bolas to start digging for fun things. He combos amazingly well with a Vault Skirge for an easy 5/5 flying lifelink. Trading Post in my fishbowls has been fantastic at ditching extra lands I don't need or sacrificing redundant artifacts like a second Chromatic Lantern that I can hopefully bring right back.Garruk Relentless   is to for token defense or to fight ramp creatures. When flipped he can tutor for a needed Glissa, the Traitor or Wurmcoil Engine.

The sideboard is not tested yet; Trinket Mage is to tutor up something like Grafdigger's Cage or Nihil Spellbomb for graveyard hate, as well as Sylvok Lifestaff for lifegain.
