This deck mainly focuses on going infinite using Ygra, Eater of All's unique rider effect that turns all creatures into artifacts. You can sac to Ashnod's Altar or Mushroom Watchdogs or Wicked Wolf infinitely, and as long as you have Camellia, the Seedmiser or Experimental Confectioner on the field, they will infinitely replenish, allowing you to combo off of the death/taxes cards like Blood Artist or The Meathook Massacre or stack infinite ETB/LTB counters on your commander or Syr Ginger, the Meal Ender.
Cauldron Familiar works in a similar fashion, sac it to make a rat or a squirrel, sac the rat or squirrel to bring it back, repeat infinitely. Rapacious Guest stacks infinite counters as long as you can keep sacrificing foods and then replenishing them, same as Syr Ginger and Ygra, but then you can sacrifice Rapacious Guest and nuke your enemies all at once. These two will serve to win even without Zulaport Cutthroat or Sanguinary Priest. Blasting Station is the same deal, tap, sac a creature that has become a food, replenish, the etb untaps, repeat infinitely.
Many cards in this deck are not mana efficient on their own, but generate food tokens which can become mana by way of Night of the Sweets' Revenge or Nuka-Cola Vending Machine and if you can generate infinite rats or squirrels, Pitiless Plunderer will generate a Treasure token every time you sac one and Academy Manufactor will generate one every time a Food enters.
There are three proper Tutors to seek out your Wincons, but there's also Thornvault Forager who mainly exists to tutor up Camellia, but Chatterfang, Squirrel General will give squirrels whenever you get any kind of token, so if Camellia is already on your field or in your graveyard, you can still benefit from seeking him as well. Peregrin Took and Parallel Lives and Doubling Season serve to increase your Food generation as well, to ensure more tokens to sacrifice, and Tough Cookie can turn a Food token into a creature to sacrifice to Ashnod's to get the party started.
Recently someone beat me with Dina, Soul Steeper because I didn't realize it was half of the Sanguine Bond+Exquisite Blood combo, so I put her in here as an extra piece to that combo, and Champion of Lambholdt is here because if you go infinite, but have no payoff, stacking infinite counters on her and your commander at the same time makes both of them unblockable and that's lethal damage.
Many of these cards are not the most mana-efficient instead choosing to favor generating Food tokens for combo purposes, but if someone wanted to replace Voracious Fell Beast with something like Assassin's Trophy because they're a masochist who doesn't mind giving their opponent land advantage, that would probably work out just fine. There's a decent combo with Sweettooth Witch and Ashnod's Altar and Camellia, the Seedmiser or Experimental Confectioner but there are too many moving parts that can't be replaced by other things involved in making that one work, so the witch is taking a seat on the maybeboard instead. I'm trying desperately to figure out how to get Giant's Skewer in here as sort of a "Block and you feed me, don't block and you bleed for me" sort of villainous choice, but it's too niche and I can't exactly justify it. Any suggestions for how to make this deck better are always appreciated!
