This deck is dependent on the commander staying out on the battlefield. Evolve, Persist, and Undying are heavily represented in this deck for obvious synergistic reasons with Marchesa. I also tried to shuffle in some ETB or on-death effects. If the commander remains on the battlefield this deck can continuously roll creatures onto the battlefield and attack without worry. Once you take the lead in terms of life remaining, things will slow down a little.

Flayer of the Hatebound combo'd with Marchesa, the Black Rose is practically end-game.

Unleashed or Graft abilities with Marchesa, the Black Rose is unrelenting. Unleashed will continuously return if you use the ability, and Graft becomes very versatile.

Considering adding more Graft to combine with Devour. Devouring any creature with a counter on it will bring it back, combined with Graft and the Commander you could get some very strong creatures out quickly.

Equipment and Aura's are primarily meant to help protect the Commander from removal.
