-1/-1 counters are the best! No infect in this deck though. I saw Hapatra, Vizier of Poisons and instantly fell in love. Ive been waiting for a -1/-1 commander since I started magic and she did not disappoint. Low cost, great values and triggers all by herself if damage goes through.

This deck is about putting out -1/-1 counters, drawing cards, and gaining life. Add some black control, and a bit of some tricks and you are left with this.

More changes will happen when new cards are spoiled.

Let me know what you think!

Archfiend of Ifnir + Bottomless Pit/Liliana, Defiant Necromancer  / Cryptbreaker

Forgotten Ancient to beef up creatures that have taken -1/-1 counters

Vhati il-Dal , Sudden Spoiling and Sorceress Queen bring large creatures to their knees

Infinite combos:

Parallel Lives to double snake tokens with Hapatra, Vizier of Poisons + Blowfly Infestation makes Infinite tokens. Extra zombies with Cryptbreaker to get closer to more card draw. Nest of Scarabs for extra 1/1's.

Blowfly Infestation + Hapatra, Vizier of Poisons + Blood Artist good game, and a quick one at that.
