This is just an idea a friend and I threw together, I haven't done too much testing with it yet, but it seems fun to me.

This deck centers around Blood Moon as a powerful hate card for a decent number of highly-played decks. To get blood moon out faster, it uses Simian Spirit Guide. Using Blood Moon, it aims to stall to play a bunch of Blood Ghasts or Demigods of Revenge. Demigod can be cast off of Spirit Guides and Blood Mooned lands as well, which is great.

Because both playsets of creatures can be recurred from the graveyard, looting effects are the primary form of dig. The deck also has some decent hand-hate in the form of Inquisition and Thoughtseize, and some decent on-board removal in the form of Terminate.

The sideboard helps some of the rougher seeming matchups: Burn, Aggro, Affinity, Twin.

This deck is a work in progress.

Edit

A bit more refined and streamlined, probably worth a discussion reset.
