A Hogaak deck that focuses on discard more then normal.

Discard strategies have a lot of ability to make tokens, which can convoke out Hogaak. Its less volatile to graveyard removal then most strategies. However this means we also won't have a hand, so we should take advantage of that, via: Miracle (Entreat the dead only relevant), Madness, Flashback, Hellbent, Retrace, Threshold, Delirium, Eternalize, Convoke... Maybe even Channel?

Strictly speaking I should be playing Spider Spawning, but arachnophobia, soooo
