Mostly black devo/orzhov deck, relies on Bogbrew Witch + Bubbling Cauldron + Festering Newt to gain life, force opponent(s) to lose life, and get rid of smaller creatures or reduce attack size. Also use either Bubbling Cauldron or Cartel Aristocrat sac mechanic to kill Gift of Immortality + Gray Merchant of Asphodel and take opponent(s) life/gain life again and again each time the Merchant reenters the board. High Priest of Penance + Pharika's Cure to destroy any nonland permanents (huge creatures, Planeswalkers, annoying enchants/artifacts) and prevent early game attacks. Went 3-1 at my very first FNM with this deck.
