Rat's for lifeBut seriously i go this going down the track of 5 ways of winning;

• card:Alter of the Brood+Marrow-Gnawer to create a slightly effective ticking mill, that's constantly growing per turn.

• Thornbite Staff+Marrow-Gnawer, Equip the Commander with the staff kill of a 1/1 rat too create the sacrifice untap, to then tap the Commander's ability to sacrifice a rat, untap the Commander, Create X 1/1 rats, sac, built rats, untap, repeat.

• Sanguine Bond+Exquisite Blood (Will be seen a mile a way but good for big EDH games)

• Contamination In general it's best too have the Commander out before the card is played, but it will make other players entirely useless they have a way too get mama from non land. So this is a real forfeit win

• Through general infection, either make a lot of Relentless Rats, or make more Pack Rat, just enough until you pull Glistening Oil or Grafted Exoskeleton to one shot poison damage someone.

And if all else fails. Play Marrow-Gnawer and make them fear rats.

This is my first EDH Deck and honestly, I wanted too make a pretty casual multi win deck. Just something someone could pick up play and enjoy, not looking for total game breaking bugs and combos, just some good old fashion rat legion anyone could play. Also it would be boring playing Thrumming Stone+Relentless RatsTried too make it somewhat low mana cost, so you could play the game without fear of low mana draw.
