I was told that Ruric Thar has to be built as an only creature deck - but I'm not sure that that's true. I'm trying to make a deck where if Ruric Thar hits the board, I pretty much win the game, instead of one where he's supposed to somehow survive despite garnering a ton of hate. A sort of Ruric Thar pillow fort sorta.

Reddit says a build like this can't work. I want a second opinion.
