One creature a turn though, unless you have multiples flying about, then
it becomes killing fun.

I like it. Then again, I like the concept of wackier decks that do somethig
fun

But I wonder, if one were to use Confusion in the Ranks (With adjustments to
the mana base), could it be made so that only your opponent would be using
cards to the Rats? Since they come into play, CIP discard happens, then
they
swap sides and die by being a 0/0 under the Plague. I ask because I like
the
idea.

Doesn't strike me has having enough lands to work right. But if it's
working for you, it looks like a good deck, full of fun side-switching
hijinks.

Though I might sugest some sweeping like Infest or Mutilate to clear
multiple creatures that sneak through your discard/kill combo engine
