By and large, tokens are the fuel that runs this deck. From Sidisi, Undead Vizier to Attrition to Skullclamp, a creature token will always fit the situation! Gravepact-like effects keep the field clear (although, gravepact isn't even in the deck...), and tons of mana can be generated through things like Black Market and Cabal Coffers. Demon of Dark Schemes and Aetherworks Marvel feed nicely off of each other to create energy to fuel their own effects, which is a neat little synergy that I really like.

There is also a fairly considerable reanimator subtheme going on. A few discard outlets and Sneak Attack help fill the graveyard with threats, and things like Hell's Caretaker or the previously mentioned Demon of Dark Schemes bring them back. The gearhulks, Sheoldred, Whispering One, or any of the big demons in the deck are all good targets to cheat into play.

So, what does this deck do to win? Sepulchral Primordial can really turn the tides in your favour, depending on what your opponents have played already. Purphoros, God of the Forge can dish out a lot of damage over a pretty short period of time, and he works as part of the one infinite combo in the deck. Gravecrawler and Phyrexian Altar together can make as many EtB triggers as needed as long as another Zombie (ie. Tymaret) is in play. Then there's Tymaret himself. 2 damage doesn't seem like a lot (and it isn't), but I have won a surprising number of games by chucking a few Goblin tokens at my opponent's face for 2 damage each to finish them off.
