I'll admit this deck started as an idea to abuse Relentless Rats, but as I was assembling it I realized the best combo is off of Marrow Gnawer + Thornbite Staff. Essentially, the two of them combined means an infinite rat combo. To take the combo even further I added Blasting Station as a means to kill all of my opponents before having to wait a full round for my infinite number of rats to loose summoning sickness. With all the tutors available, I think it shouldn't be too difficult to get Thornbite Staff into play and if someone shoots it down I could always tutor for something like Living Dead to get it out of my graveyard.

I really just wanted to test-play this deck but any ideas or suggestions are appreciated.
