More of a fun than competitive deck.

Still tweaking this one, and the more I tinker with it the more artifact heavy it becomes.

The key to playing this deck is to get that first poison counter on you opponent as quickly as possible. There are 12 cards to inflict it: Blighted Agent , Virulent Wound , and Inkmoth Nexus .

Now, it hasn't been an issue so far. So I've swapped out the Blighted Agents for Necropede . The agents are great but, 1) Necropede is plenty good on its own, 2) has fun synergy with Throne of Geth , 3) the two colorless cost works better when chaining proliferates with Inexorable Tide - as you try to tap the Everflowing Chalice last thereby letting the charges build up as you cast, so you can continue to cast, or when drawing into it with Tezzeret's Gambit for the same reason. There are plenty of times I have cast the gambit with 3 land and a 1-counter chalice on the board, leaving the chalice untapped to proliferate, and drawing into a 2-drop, or a land and a magnet, etc.

But further testing will see if the (theoretically) slightly less reliable poison counter becomes a liability that outweighs the benefits.

Once the opponent has poison, the rest of the game is board control and proliferating the #%&@*! out of everything.

You will need lots and lots of tokens and/or dice.
