This is my version of the classic Alesha build featuring the Master of Cruelties combo.

This deck is meant to quickly start pressuring opponents with damage and discard while getting in range for a kill shot via cheating out an attacking Master of Cruelties. Once set up with our equipments and sac outlets this deck can deliver multiple alpha strikes in a single combat phase. This deck is fun to play as it is fairly resilient to boardwipes and can set up a one-shot in one turn mid to late game.

Basic Gameplay: We want to cycle two-power creatures with ETB effects into our graveyard using our looting spells and planeswalkers, then swing with our commander and reanimate something good once the coast is clear. In addition to Master of Cruelties we are packing a Vorpal Sword to threaten the OHK and a Elbus, the Binding Blade that we can cheat out with Stoneforge Mystic for the epic possibility of transforming it into Withengar. We have an array of enchantments, creatures, and equipment to help us get combat damage through and ignore cluttered board states, as well as a package of sacrifice outlets to ensure we get value out of all our creatures and tokens. Anafenza, Kin-Tree Spirit and Murderous Redcap can also infinite combo with a sac outlet in play for either infinite mana or infinite damage. A few reanimator spells can help us cheat out some big creatures or get our commander back if she falls in battle, and a heap of tutors make sure we have what we need at all times.

I am still tweaking this thing so let me know if you have any suggestions!
