Notes
 
I am not sure this deck will work, but I had to make a go of it. As with a couple of others before, this is built around punishing for casting creatures, but also for returning the creatures to my opponent's hand. Psychic Venom makes it possible to add more pain to casting decisions, and Seasinger can work on the few that get through and are useful. There are plenty of ways to win; I am just not convinced that there are enough ways not to lose. The 15/15/9/1 curve makes for an easy start and a 1.90 average cost.
