The Goal is to steal their creatures and generally out tempo your opponents. The deck was born out of a necessity to counter an Animar deck harassing my playgroup - and now is in a place where it serves as a fairly nice counter to big creature decks at any table I sit at. You have a quite a few sac outlets to pop their creatures and/or Tuktuk to: High Market + Miren, the Moaning Well are great hard-to-hit land outlets, Barrage of Expendables + Goblin Bombardment + Makeshift Munitions are our ping enchantment outlets, while Ashnod's Altar + Culling Dais + Helm of Possession serve as our artifact outlets. Culling covers up a sore spot in the deck's lack of card draw; you will generally lean very heavily on tempo swing plays on the board. Helm is the obviously the most powerful out of those, and having a helm and any other sac outlet is wondrous.

Again I have to stress: A list like this has a pretty bad time against spellslinger decks. Hope it's 5 colors and pray you draw that Blood Moon?
