---

Half rat, half discard, put pressure on your opponents to choose what cards to keep and what to discard as you tax them for their choices.

The deck utilized multiple discard spells, rats with discard effects and a few land destruction for pesky reliquary towers. Capitalize on the discard with cards that trigger off of discard or cards entering the graveyard.

Win conditions include swarming, damage dealt by triggers [liliana's caress, ayara, megrim, raiders wake, torment of scarabs, creeping dread]. Commander damage is not ideal.

Words of Waste and Geth's Grimoire can lead to opponents discarding their hand and the deck drawing a lot of cards at the cost of 1 colorless per card. Temple bell and creeping dread to draw just before the trigger in case opponents do not have cards in hand. torment of scarabs, honden of nights reach, painful quandery promote discarding. nezumi graverobber, geth, doomed necromancer, hell's caretaker,ink-eyes, coffin queen, whisper, and palace seige promote creature graveyard recursion. geth's grimoire, waste not, and profane memento draw value from opponent discarding.
