This deck tries to win through controlling the board with cards like Cast Down, Chainer's Edict etc. Or wiping the board if it becomes necessary using Crypt Rats or Suffocating Fumes.

Too grind out real value the deck runs 4x Deadly Dispute and 4x Reckoner's Bargain that both can sacrifice Ichor Wellspring, Blood Fountain, Blood Tokens, Plant Tokens or Vault of Whispers in worst case scenario. Some times it can also be worth it to sacrifice Gurmag Angler to Reckoner's Bargain to gain back a ton of life.

The deck usually starts out by trying to play lands such as Khalni Garden and then a swamp allowing you to hold up two mana for either Cast Down or Deadly Dispute.

Some fun little tricks in the deck are:

• Crypt Rats + Unexpected Fangs as it allows us to activate the RATS for 1 and have it survive while getting back a ton of life each activation. Otherwise Unexpected Fangs in general is a fine card as you can throw it on one of your big guys such as Gurmag Angler or Vampire Sovereign.
• Bounce Land + Khalni Garden: allows you to generate a ton of plant tokens.
