I wanted to create a deck that forces my opponents to attack me with their weakened creatures
+1/+1s for me, -1/-1s for you
The deck splits probably 1/3 +1/+1 mechanics to 2/3 -1/-1 spells
Yes that's not perfect zero sum, no I don't care

I really enjoy the interactions in this deck of increasing both +1/+1s and -1/-1s on my own creatures for benefit. For example, putting extra -1/-1s on Grim Poppet to redistribute them however is great

Proliferate is also great since I can hit +1/+1s, -1/-1s, and loyalty counters. If I was playing vivid lands, it'll hit those too (they're in my maybeboard)

Also, this is sort of a budget deck, so no big counter doublers (doubling season, etc.)
