This deck is a fast win one on one, and decently competitive in multiplayer.

Glissa is an amazing ramp general, allowing the abuse of Solemn Simulacrum, Burnished Hart, Expedition Map, coupled with Skullclamp as an excellent ramp/draw engine.

Slap Viridian Longbow, or if you have a good mana supply utilizing Thornbite Staff, you can wipe their field and recover your artifacts for more ramp. Late game recovering your equipments.

Main wincon is infect. Blightsteel Colossus, Phyrexian Hydra , Phyrexian Swarmlord , Skithiryx, the Blight Dragon , Putrefax and Phyrexian Juggernaut being your fatties for the infect side of This deck give your opponents either a one or 2 turn clock. And thats when not equipped. Rogue's Passage lets them slip in unblocked.

Cheating out blightsteel early game is usually a win. Deathrender, Kuldotha Forgemaster do the trick for this strategy.

Slapping, Phyresis , Grafted Exoskeleton or Snake Cult Initiation on any of your other fatties or glissa herself makes this deck flexible to your wincon. Being able to now use non infect creatures toward a more control purpose but still nabbing those infect points. Acidic Slime, Steel Hellkite, Bloodgift Demon, Reclamation Sage and glissa all serve great utility.

Sneak attacks are super deadly in infect. Thats why Tainted Strike, and Giant Growth were added. No one expects the seven infect damage an unsuspected Steel Hellkite could do. Or five from a Core Prowler followed by a proliferate.

No deck is complete without removal.Spot removal is essential. Dismember, Doom Blade, Grasp of Darkness , Tragic Slip are very fast. Cruel Edict and Diabolic Edict get around indestructible, hexproof and protection. Viridian Longbow and Thornbite Staff on glissa is awesome creature removal with a bonus. Acidic Slime, Reclamation Sage, Krosan Grip and Steel Hellkite are great mid to late game removal/ field control. Mass removal lies in the hands of Infest , Pernicious Deed and the ever powerful Plague Wind.

Tutors and good draw card mechanics ensure you a solid early to mid game setup. If your opponents last that long.

Any questions or suggestions welcome.
