    found this deck yesterday on your moxfield, it is the best mentor deck I have ever played. i think it needs a couple of tweaks and requires a bit of finness to win as you need to hold some spells discard some creatures and just go kill them some of the time.

    I was playing around with the same kind of deck, but with fallaji archeologist and founding the third path (it lets you reanimate your reanimate spells. reanimateception!). It's a superfun deck to play. It's fast, it goes wide, it has more spells than creatures, I really like it and I'm at a 9/10 record in ranked with it.

    I think that deck at 17:10 was trying to self mill to get Cruel Somnophage out as a 10/10 or higher, with Jace as a potential backup for board shenanigans and card draw, but I didn't see any Descent mechanic so not sure how that was supposed to pay off otherwise.
