The point behind this deck is to push greven competitively focusing on his first ability to gain power by losing life. I have tried the creature route but it's much less consistent. Therefore, we use low cmc spells to pay infinite life and turn greven into lethal when ever he swings. Very high risk, high reward spikey game play so if you like that style of play, its a good fit. You are generally looking to win around turn 3-5 with the proper mulligan.

Pros: High risk very high reward, Very spiky and cheap win cons, Can usually go under the radar for a few games, Fast, often times getting greven out turn 2

Cons: Little interaction with other decks, Risky, Glass cannon, Extremely early game focused, so mid and late game are almost non existent

Overall, if you like high efficiency high risk gameplay, it's a very fun deck to play. Suggestions are always welcome, whether I use them or not I always appreciate hearing other peoples input. Enjoy :)
