Nicol Bolas, the Deck.

The idea is to work together all three of the Bolas-Gods from Hour of Devastation. They're pretty good together and have some synergy around drawing and discarding cards. You can't have more fun than this!

Cards that work with all three Gods: Windfall, Wheel of Fortune, Whispering Madness: these draw you closer to some of the Gods in the deck, and they synergize with Locust God by drawing cards, with Scarab God by putting stuff in the graveyard, and with ... ok, not really with Scorpion God, unless you have Archfiend of Ifnir, which is awesome.

Cards that work with Scorpion God: Archfiend of Ifnir, Everlasting Torment, Necroskitter, Black Sun's Zenith, mana ramp: These are the -1/-1 counter cards. Archfiend of Ifnir is the key card since it translates all the draw and discard that works with the rest of the deck into stuff that works with the Scorpion God.
