Alora, Merry Thief can make one of your creatures unblockable until end of turn. At the end of turn, you return that creature to your hand.

So thus deck basically includes every possible Man-o'-War and Ravenous Chupacabra creature it can, as well as a bunch of counters and recursion.

The goal is just to tempo and control your opponents out of the game. No big win con, just a million ways to slow everyone else down and stop their win cons.

Suggestions welcome!
