This was originally a Chronic Flooding + Contaminated Ground deck that forced the enchanted lands to tap with Floodbringer , but I kinda dig the idea of a deck that doesn't actually do any damage by itself but only sets up a lot of hard choices with clear repercussions.

So, anyway. Tie swords like Contaminated Ground above my opponent's heads, and limit their options with land destruction.
