Deck Description

The idea of this deck is to make everyone discard cards with Cunning Lethemancer, Creeping Dread, and Delirium Skeins, while getting insane amounts of life through Confessor, an army of fliers with Spirit Cairn, and damage with Liliana's Caress.

How to Play

The ideal start to the game would be:
Turn 1: Confesser
Turn 2: Liliana's Caress/ Waste Not
Turn 3: Cunning Lethemancer
Turn 4: Geth's Grimoire

After that, you can go to town. Geth's Grimoire is a very important card as it lets you practically refill your hand after each discard. Hopefully, you can whittle your opponent's hand down before they can get a strong base, but Ruinous Path and Utter End are your fallbacks.

It was a toss-up between Master of the Feast, Quest for the Nihil Stone, and Waste Not. I chose Master of the Feast because when your opponents have no cards in their hands, you can make them draw and then discard without them benefiting.
