THE DARKNESS (plus Shudderwock)

While seemingly absurd at first, upon closer inspection, you will realize that your initial assessment was correct. This deck is dumb and stupid. But for that one shining, glorious moment when you wake up the darkness, it is totally worth it. Basically, use banker, brann, brew, zola, murmur, and shudderwock to add as many candles as possible to the enemy deck. Then use oracle, nat, and swords to force your opponent to draw the candles quickly. slow down the game, heal yourself, and maintain board control with the other cards. It's pretty simple, really.
