This is my black/white blink/bounce deck. I got the idea after making a bant flicker deck and remembering gary... This deck was made to abuse ETB effects, but the primary win-con is to utilize Gray Merchant of Asphodel. There's also Abhorrent Overlord to flood the board with tokens, Gonti, Lord of Luxury and Puppeteer Clique to use other people's cards, Pontiff of Blight to give your other creatures extort and drain your opponents' life that way, and Grave Titan, Rune-Scarred Demon, and Shadowborn Demon for beat-down. There's cards like Gravedigger, Beacon of Unrest and Infernal Offering to recycle gary if it dies or gets removed too. This deck is intended to be more of a budget alternative... hence why I didn't include expensive lands.

Here's the deck. I was wondering what sort of potential people thought this deck had compared to Roon of the Hidden Realm and Norin the Wary decks.

I think that black's reanimation engines (Corpse Dance,Chainer, Dementia Master, etc.) are substantially better than Triad of Fates at "flickering" creatures. Without a lot of untapping and/or ability copying, Triad of Fates is very slow to flicker anything at all. Probably the best reason to play them is their extremely cool flavor, so I wouldn't sweat it if the deck isn't necessarily comparable to Roon of the Hidden Realm

There's definitely room for improvement, but it looks like you'd have more or less a good time playing this deck. Also, Arcane Sanctum, Crystal Shard, and Turn to Mist are not legal in a Triad of Fates deck because they all have blue in their color identity.
