With the printing of both Back to Nature and Tormod's Crypt in M15, this deck may die, and I will be incredibly sad, but I will try to build with that in mind and we'll see how things go. Stain the Mind might be my saving grace in the end.

B/G Dredge with a Constellation finisher.

The goal of this deck is simple to describe but tricky to play due to a variety of means to the end goal. It boils down to filling the graveyard with the various enablers before using Strength from the Fallen triggers to make something huge that will either kill your opponent in one swing or which can be sacrificed using Jarad, Golgari Lich Lord for a big kill. The deck can also race faster decks with big beaters from Nighthowler, Jarad, Golgari Lich Lord, and Lotleth Troll.

The sideboard is still very much a work in progress.

The deck went 4-1 and I made top 2, splitting for prize. I beat burn and various other aggro things, only losing when a Rakdos deck pulled out Rakdos, Lord of Riots in combination with Desecration Demon, and then Rakdos Charmed my graveyard. That combined with bad flips to make a lost round.

The deck is performing wonderfully, and the only update I anticipate making is adding the painlands from m15, once they are legal. I also have to begin thinking about my replacements for the few cards I'm losing when rotation happens.
