I've never actually seen this deck run, could someone explain it?
It's a combo deck based around balustrade spy and flayer of the hatebound. You use dredgers to get cards in your graveyard and creatures in play, deck yourself with balustrade spy, then flashback dread return on flayer and other creatures to win. It can usually win on turn 2-3
I run this sometimes. A turn two win is almost impossible. Literally impossible if they are smart and pick to be on the draw. But yeah, dread return, fueled by narcomoebas and ichorids and nether shadows and bridges from below. It's nice.
The balustrade spy into returning flayer and golgari grave troll is awesome, but it can also do beat downs with ichorid every turn against the more controlly decks. It is pretty much non interactive with the exception of cabal therapy. Knowing what to name with it is sometimes more art than science. Heaps of fun to play in any event. Just gotta watch out for rest in peace and the (lesser played in legacy) leyline of the void.
