Description of deck by its author (quoted):
At the core of this deck is Poison... and lots of it.  Every creature that exists in Magic with Poison Counters in its rules text is in this deck.  There's aren't any crazy combos or amazing synergies going on the deck mainly because its more of a fun, theme deck than a WIN WIN WIN deck.  However, the deck is totally customizable.  You could take out a few of the inefficient Cobras and Vipers and substitute them with more aggro, more combo or more WIN.  That's the joy of Magic! 

As mentioned previously, there aren't any crazy combos.  However, know that any Poisonous creature does very well under a Whispersilk Cloak. 

There's a suite of fun equipment to spice up the deck along side a trio of Rancor.  Trample just makes a creature with Poisonous that much more dangerous.  Sign In Blood facilitates some card drawings, Hymn of Tourach keeps your opponent's hand in check and Chainer's Edict is like having four Diabolic Edicts in the deck, thanks to Flashback.  Serpent Generator is just for flavor.

There are only two other cards that mention Poison Counters that aren't in this deck, as of March 2010 anyway: Leeches and Snake Cult Initiation.
