A deck i've made and i am considering making somewhat competitive. Please consider budget will be an issue. The key idea is to get a little bit of early creatures for any damage you can get in, and have the little guys keep swingin for as long as they can, till they die. Once they die, they can help feed the Nighthowler. Altar's Reap can sac them earlier for card draw. Once midgame comes around, you can start dropping the REAL threats. Liliana's Reaver, Purphoros's Emissary , and Nighthowler can all pull weight on their own, but with bestow, they can pull together for late game teamwork shenanigans. Also nice for late game, pop down a Rakdos Shred-Freak and bestow it with Nighthowler on the same turn before combat.
