Deck Description

Idea:
Seeing "Tainted Strike" and having just looked upon a "Stuffy doll" Deck it came to my mind that you didn't need combat damage to give your opponent poison counters and thus this would be a rather unpleasant synergy for my opponent .

It's very likely that Infect is a mere overkill here but I wanted to give it a try.

Building it:
So 3 Stuffy Doll, 3 Pariah and 2 Tainted Strike where set from the beginning.
Knowing that I would need some protection and some ramp I threw in 4 Knight of the White Orchid and 3 Swiftfoot Boots while also adding 3 Phyresis to increase the number of infect-spells.
Knight of the White Orchid should also serve as backup plan against creatureless decks.
4 Perimeter Captain and 4 Pride Guardian where added to give some further defence.
I added 4 Duress and 4 Doom Blade to get some removals into this deck.
Last I threw in some basic lands, supported by some (budget) duallands.

Tests:
This deck exists only on this site and has never been played against another deck. Regardless I'm open to all suggestions and ideas that may help to improve this deck.

How to Play

Defend yourself with Perimeter Captain and Pride Guardian. Knight of the White Orchid can also for defence but it's main purpose is ramp. Duress can give you early information what your opponent can do and remove dangerous spells. from his hand.
As soon as Stuffy Doll is on the field try to enchant it with Pariah and simply let your opponent attack. Throwing in a Tainted Strike will end the game very quickly.

Might I suggest some of the en-Kor? They all have the ability to pay 0 and redirect the next 1 damage to target creature you control, so essentially you can redirect all defensive damage onto your Doll and then redirect it as infect from there. The only modern one is Outrider en-Kor, sadly, but still the idea could have some merit.

Enjoy your deck!

Thank you for the suggestion. Basically Pariah is supposed to do that. I need Stuffy Doll and Pariah on the field for this deck to work. The outrider can only serve as further Blocker which is unnecessary when Pariah is on the field. He also can only redirect the damage onto another creature but not onto my opponent.

Tainted strike is only a once off effect. You want something like Grafted Exoskeleton or Phyresis for a more permanent infect option.

The idea behind this was that 11 damage from my opponent should be easy to get together in one turn and to surprise him with Tainted strike.
After stepping back and re-considering this idea the question is how I can get my opponent to attack when Pariah and Stuffy Doll is on the field.
