Herald of Torment is not only is a 3/3 3 drop flyer, but he can also bestow onto Agent of the Fates and make your opponent sac a creature!

Duress and Thoughtseize - Early hand Rip Down.

Hero's Downfall - Kills basically anything on the field.

Sanguine Bond + Whip of Erebos - Deadly combo, especially when you throw a Gray Merchant of Asphodel or Corrupt down.

Whip of Erebos - Lifelink. If anything gets countered, use the effect it has.

Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx and Crypt Ghast - Mana Ramp

Agent of the Fates - Good creature to clear the board as well as hitting with 3.(Great for bestowing Nighthowler/Herald of Torment

Erebos, God of the Dead - No life gain for the opponent. If you have no cards in your hand, you have enough mana from Crypt Ghast or Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx to draw freely and enough life to draw as well.

My sideboard works for Selesnya decks as well as control decks.

Lifebane Zombie works for Selesnya.

Sanguine Bond + Crypt Incursion works because if they keep counter/kill your creature, well they used most of their counter/kill cards on the creatures, making Crypt Incursion deadly.

Pithing Needle is easy removal tool.

Elixir of Immortality can shut down Mill decks and can do quick 5 life damage opponent if Sanguine Bond is out, as well as putting your graveyard in your library.
