Yeah, I wanted to buy the Jeleva precon, but True-Name Nemesis happened, so I bought the Prossh one instead. It's a fun deck, which even inspired my Endrek Sahr one; but I still wanted to build a Grixis deck. Not for Jeleva, though. For Nekusar. Why? I still don't know, maybe to recycle some cards from my old Crosis, the Purger deck, or maybe because I really liked his card design.

1. Yes, it's a Group Slug / Bear Hug style of deck -- give them extra draws, make them choke and drown with so many cards, and even tax them with damage! I'm still missing some cards, like the already suggested Underworld Dreams, or Master of the Feast, or Waste Not, but I'll be acquiring then as soon as my budget allows.

2. Currently, this deck has two insta-win combos, to be used with moderation: Exquisite Blood and Sanguine Bond; and Mind Over Matter, Arcanis and/or Azami, and Laboratory Maniac. However, I don't want to rely on them to win. I'm open to other combo and/or synergy suggestions, though.

3. EDIT: now I'm shifting to have a discard sub-theme -- it's good to have leftover cards from an old Nath of the Gilt-Leaf deck --, since it plays well with the mass draw main theme. Again, I'm open for suggestions.

Disclaimer: This is a real, physical deck, made with cards I own. Open for comments and suggestions, but I'm on a budget; so, please only common, uncommon, and/or bulk rare/mythic cards, as cheap as possible. And, if I already have the card, even better! Options I have are and/or will be presented on the Sideboard; cards I don't have yet, on the Maybeboard.

PS: I have a very limited budget so, while I'm listing some cards in my Maybeboard, it's very unlikely I'll have the opportunity to acquire them, due to their price tag. However, they are useful in Nekusar builds, so if you're interested and have the money, go for them!
