Rush with a Turn 1 Glistener Elf followed by a Turn 2 Assault Strobe + Groundswell ( Or 2x Mutagenic Growth).

Similar combos work for Turn 3 or 4 wins. Ichorclaw Myr + Assault Strobe + Colossal Might will secure a win even against most chump blockers.

If you cannot win with an early combo, use Tangle Angler and Blightwidow to hold out until you can bring a Putrefax into play.

If you are still not able to get through their defenses, equip Livewire Lash to one of your creatures, and dump your buff spells onto the creature to deal infect damage directly to your opponents.

Punishing Fire + Grove of the Burnwillows provides you with endless zap spells to deal with small enemy creatures, or to work in conjunction with Livewire Lash, assuming you have it equipped to Tangle Angler or Blightwidow
