As it says in the deck info, the idea behind this deck is simple, get out a Rage Extractor and kill with Act of Aggression.

I think it's an interesting deviation from control decks; whether you like the land control part is another thing, but I find the usage of rage extractor and accelerating through Phyrexian mana very interesting.

The fact that Rage Extractor has the added value of slowly killing your opponent by keeping card advantage (or not losing it) through gitaxian/noxious is very interesting to me:

4x damage from Gitaxian Probe (plus not losing card advantage, and knowing opponent's hand)
4x damage from Noxious Revival (which also lets you re-use any other of your spells on the next draw)
4x from Geth's Verdict (plus removal)
?x damage from Contaminated Ground
20x damage from Act of Aggression (+creature damage?)
15x damage from Rage Extractor

And of course, if you don't care for the land part, then just swap them out and you've got 8 free slots for more regular control cards.

Well, let me know what you think and what you would change! (Especially because I'm almost sure the land gimmick wont work, so I'd like to know what you would use instead)
