This deck is built around sacrificing creatures for counters and gathering those counters together onto single creatures. That means this deck is built for more fast offense than mid-to-late game defense. Taking life from opponents when large creatures are in your control and when any creatures are destroyed is an alternate win condition.

Thrull Parasite was recommended by many people due to its ability to remove counters from creatures with Undying and give them potential immortality. Although this card's ability is repeatable, but only once per turn and it destroys the counters it removes. I am using Bioshift instead. It is a one-time use card, but it uses the counters it removes to boost other creatures. Using Bioshift instead of Thrull Parasite also negates the loss of life which it causes. Since this deck isn't designed for prolonged defense, life can easily be lost in combat. Ooze Flux is also implemented to keep Undying creatures in play.

Bloodflow Connoisseur, Bioshift, Doubling Season, and Sadistic Glee are key tools for gathering counters and growing an offensive monster. Predator's Gambit is a cheap way to boost whatever creature(s) you are building. This can also bypass your opponent's defenses, especially if you are building a Bloodflow Connoisseur. Rancor is another way to bypass an opponent's defenses. It is in the Sideboard, since that bonus will only be necessary when playing against a very defensive/creature heavy opponent.

I REALLY like Sadistic Glee since it is a one drop which can almost turn any creature into Bloodflow Connoisseur (without the ability to sacrifice at will). Fate Transfer is also on my list of likes, but Bioshift and Ooze Flux provide enough counter-keeping. The legality of these cards combined with the size of this deck pushed them into a waiting area inside my mind.
