This is a Grixis control deck, used to mill my opponents down and slowly eat away at their resources and eventually outlast them. Especially useful against life-gain decks. Starts out with getting Bloodsoaked champion out, then Xathrid necromancer and altar of dementia. The altar allows free sacrifice, with the added bonus of milling my opponents. I can slowly build up an army, all the while removing cards from my opponent's library. The other cards are mainly for support and control, giving all my zombies deathtouch to deal with the pesky hexproof monsters, with Marchesa to make all my creatures essentially immortal.

Some things I've realized:this deck really sucks on defense. This was partially intentional, as Marchesa's dethrone only works if the opponent has most life. Also it lacks any ability to deal with flying creatures early on, so I'm not sure if I'll be able to do anything to change that.
