This is my take on a deck called Killing My Tokens Softly. I have been piloting the 'Junk' coloured version for a while now and I often found myself loosing a lot to Lightning Bolt, Path to Exile my core combo creatures or just losing the race. This version is my first attempt at fixing that. Removing green for blue, dropping Sylvan Scrying and Hunted Troll for Swan Song and Hunted Phantasm.

The main interactions here are with Illness in the Ranks and Forbidden Orchard, as well as other token generators (ie. Hunted Phatasm, other killers (Zealous Persecution) and a Blood Artist or Suture Priest to ping them for it. Many other interactions hidden in here. Hoping this version is more stable. I foresee lack of card draw being a problem (Possibly add a Dark Confidant?)

Anyways, let me know your thoughts! And a plus 1 to you for reading into this!
