I guess you could call this a hand stax deck.

The plan is to get your opponents' hands down to zero, and bounce their permanents so they can discard those as well, to eventually give them no boardstate at all.

First 3 Enchantments fetched (depending on hand) are Necropotence, Bottomless Pit, Waste Not. Since discard here is random, more often or not I'm drawing more cards or putting a zombie (blocker) in play.

Afterward comes the pain, draining their life (megrim, caress, bloodchief) or added discard (necrogen mists) if their handsize stays large.

Painful Quandry is one of the deathblows, and I'll try to copy it if their hand is empty.

Drake Haven and Spirit Cairn are mainly for blocking, but are also a secondary win condition.

Getting opponents' hand to zero is usually easy, if there is a permanent causing card draw, it must go first. If at zero, I will make them draw a card or three (Ghirapur Orrery, Mikokoro)...so they can discard it and take more dmg.

Noetic Scales will bounce their creatures and they will discard whatever they don't cast that turn.
