This is a Plague of Moths - Turbo Corpse deck that focuses on bringing out as many powerful 2 cost Lotus characters as possible (most notably Walking Corpses), getting them smoked over time, and returning them with PoM to go for the win.
This deck is very aggro; ideally you'll want to go for a burn by turn 3 or 4 using the Proving Ground - Pocket Demon engine. Dust Storm, Meteor Hammer and White Disciple will allow your weenie horde to punch through and take sites. Early BFPs will increase the size (and annoying reach) of the horde. Eventually you'll want to see them all go into the smoked pile in one form or fashion before playing PoM.
This deck can also win via coup de grace with White Ninja.
This deck won the 2023 Lackey League Halloween Tournament which used the Mark of Evil format. It also qualifies for the Halloween format (with 22 matching cards) and Classic format.
Per 16.3 in the rulebook, all damage on Walking Corpses is Corrupted. The text should read "Cannot turn to change location. All damage on this card is Corrupted."
