Capable of turn 4 wins in the playtester this deck is fast. With a low mana cost the tri-colour nature of this Deck isn't really an issue.
The Grixis colours allow for great removal and control options as well as card advantage.
How to turn 4 win:
The perfect opening hand is: Island Mountain Swamp
Frost Walker
Mardu Shadowspear
Touch of the Void
Titan's Strength
Turn 1: play the swamp and Shadowspear.
Turn 2: play the island and frost walker, hit for 2 damage
Turn 3: play the mountain and either touch of the Void or titans strength(add it to the shadowpear) and hit for 9
Turn 4: repeat turn 3 with the remaining card.
For information on the rest of the deck please read on. Without this specific combo of cards the deck is still capable of turn 5 wins quite regularly in playtests. I hope you like the deck and feel free to comment below.

The rest of the deck.
By playing
Mardu Shadowspear
and
Kolaghan Stormsinger
there are some great early game options for damage. With
Faerie Miscreant
comes the opportunity for card draw and an evasive creature.
This deck is built to be a great budget deck that can churn out fast wins and hold off against more traditional burn decks by using Dispel at the right moment.
Against stompy decks
Processor Assault
and
Touch of Moonglove
offer great removal with the latter also providing slight burn.
As for direct damage spells
Touch of the Void
comes in a little expensive but with Herald of Kozilek on the board 3 at the right time doesn't have to be costly. On top of that there is a great opportunity to exile (and later process) your enemies larger threats.
As for the Conduit of Ruin and
Eldrazi Devastator
these offer great finishers in games where bad card draw or good defensive opponents have made a quick match difficult. The opportunity to break a stalemate in such examples is fulfilled by the great combination of these cards. Not only does the Conduit find the devestator, it also makes it cheaper to help out in a tight spot.
