Fully optimized Alesha Stax build. The deck's goal is to disrupt and lock down opponents with efficient hate bears powerful prison tools. The main win condition is Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker + Village Bell-Ringer for a Splinter Twin-esk infinite combo. It's usually assembled off Buried Alive. Burying the two aforementioned creatures alongside Karmic Guide allows me to win off a single reanimation effect, including Alesha herself. The downside to using Alesha is that it then takes a full turn cycle to win, since Kiki-Jiki comes in tapped off her ability.

If the combo is offline for whatever reason, the deck is often able to win with pure beats aided by Elesh Norn, Grand Cenobite

Credit to angelforge for the deck idea. His early list provided a great starting point to upgrade from.
