When one of the members of my playgroup said that infect was not a viable strategy, i just had to attempt to make a deck that defied that claim.
I made a mid-late game control style good stuff infect deck. This deck isn't designed to speed out skithiryx and nuke a player. it's designed to slowly build your pressence and infect everyone and proliferate a win. speed the clock up on those players giving you problems by swinging with skithiryx or using a tactical tainted strike.
this was a pretty short-lived deck. i don't ever really play it and infect as a whole isn't getting much more love, at least not for a while. so taking it apart.
if infect or poison ever has a big return i will reconsider making it again.
