Midrange with -1/-1 counter theme. Falls behind a bit in the early game because, but once you get your key pieces down it's got a lot of potential.

Hapatra, Vizier of Poisons + Necroskitter + Obelisk Spider combo well together.

Uses green cartouche to fight your snakes on their bombs, flyers etc provides a bit more removal with lasting value, as does returning Trial of Ambition to hand with Cartouches. I put Tenacious Hunter in the sidedeck as an alternative to Crocadile of the Crossing but really either is fine here. I'll have to playtest more before I settle on one or the other.

Necroskitter works with all the -1s to make their board your board, Hapatra generates a shitload of tokens when used with the other creatures, and in a pinch Black Sun's Zenith can either wipe the board or throw -1s on everything to trigger Hapatra's token generation, Necroskitters board steal and Obelisk Spider's life swing, and even though your creatures will eat some of those tokens, they won't stick to the Ammit Eternal or Channeler Initiate for long. Hapatra and Ammit eternal are the wincon in this deck.
