Trying out a deck designed for Syr Konrad, the Grim. I can imagine several strategies one can use with him. I'm currently trying strategy A plus a little bit of an "Aristocrats" theme:

A) Use individual cards that trigger the general as many times as possible per use, ignoring if they have synergy or a comprehensive strategy ("Goodstuff") - Mimic Vat, Buried Alive, Fleshbag Marauder, Grave Pact, Tortured Existence, Entreat the Dead, Sheoldred, Whispering One, etc...

B) Go for one large mass reanimate such as Living Death, Command the Dreadhorde, Balthor the Defiled, Rise of the Dark Realms

C) Combo (non-infinite) by constantly cycling my creatures between graveyard and other zones for the least amount of mana possible - UNDYING, PERSIST, Cauldron of Souls, Mikaeus, the Unhallowed, Ashen Ghoul, Whisper, Blood Liturgist, Reassembling Skeleton plus Ashnod's Altar or Phyrexian Altar, etc...

D) Sacrifice outlets to have my entire board die as soon as the General is in play. The sacrifice outlets must be repeatable without spending mana (easy), but I would need a large amount of creatures in play early for this to be worthwhile - Bitterblossom, Chittering Witch, Sling-Gang Lieutenant, Sengir Autocrat, Marsh Flitter, Rite of Belzenlok, Grave Titan, Wurmcoil Engine, etc...
