A fun casual deck that should never have worked, were it not for Endless Whispers. This crazy card lets us do some serious shenanigans by sacrificing our own creatures, being able to answer for them with our remaining creatures, and stealing our opponents' creatures from the grave.

Key combos and synergies:

Bone Splinters + Endless Whispers lets us trade creatures with the opponent. It's great when you don't need a Leaden Myr or Sangrophage, or Phylactery Lich when your opponent controls no artifacts.

Blind Zealot + Despoiler of Souls are our main attackers, since if either of them die, it still works out to our advantage. Despoiler of Souls can't block Blind Zealot, so the intimidate still works, while Blind Zealot can't get through our main blockers like Vampire Hexmage and Hand of Cruelty.

Kuon, Ogre Ascendant is absurdly easy to flip, and his enchantment ability is very one-sided in a deck that's meant to beat itself.

Dark Prophecy + Gray Merchant of Asphodel pretty much locks down the card draw and the life gain to sustain it. You can even purposely kill the Merchant (especially if your opponent has no black) and then use Bone Splinters to get him back.

Darksteel Citadel + Leaden Myr + Phylactery Lich is the ramp and the indestructible 5/5 for BBB.

All feedback is welcome! Enjoy!
