The basic premise of this deck is that Spoils of the Vault and Plunge into Darkness get you life down faster than a bunch of loose 2 life cards (As in generic Zooicide.) Seeing as both of them search, the many "2/2 for 1" creatures can be replaced with a single set of Death's Shadow. The rest just builds around this style.

[Not actually Zoo or Zoo-icide I just liked the name. I would call it a Combo-Suicide]

If you have Death's Shadow use Spoils of the Vault or Plunge into Darkness for Angel's Grace to just loose life. Angel's Grace is to prevent you from dying when you have very little life. When you use Angel's Grace you should do so on your opponents turn to negate all combat damage they do. when you do this you can then use all you left over life-cost instants that would have killed you before like: Spoils of the Vault or Plunge into Darkness with no life penalty to get another Angel's Grace or whatever you need.

Removed Mishra's Bauble because I realized it made no sense to have in this deck and added Faith's Shield because it literally does everything and fills every hole in this deck. It: Stops you from getting burned out and stops lethal combat damage (it doesn't matter that it only works at 5hp because of you have more than 5hp you want to loose it anyway), protects Death's Shadow from removal, can force Death's Shadow's damage through, and can stop drawing too many cards from Plunge into Darkness. It's so perfect that I'm making it the new featured card.
