Ezuri lifts. He lifts so hard that he makes everyone around him huge too.

Phyrexian themed Ezuri deck. The restrictions I imposed on myself were the cards either had to have the phyrexian watermark or be phyrexian themed. Mirran Spy is in the deck for flavour reasons, and Edric, Spymaster of Trest is a bit of a joke. He's just that good that he can infiltrate phyrexia unnoticed. Plus he was my last u/g commander and he's a cool dude. The only exception to this rule were the lands, as it would have ruined the mana base.

The list is in no way supposed to be optimized or highly competitive, though Ezuri can just make bad cards into big beaters so it sort of evens the deck out. I'd rather not have had infect, but this is a theme deck, so for flavour reasons I left it in. Plus it would have made it very hard to have only phyrexian cards in the deck as the older phyrexian cards (invasion, etc) tended to be black.

I didn't include Vorinclex, Voice of Hunger or Chancellor of the Tangle because Ezuri was compleated by the progress machine, which is Jin-Gitaxias, Core Augur's faction. Blightsteel Colossus was omitted because that card is unfun and I already have enough poison. Besides, Ezuri can easily turn in a simple Putrefax into a Blightsteel with enough experience counters. Green Sun Zenith isn't in the deck because there's not really much I would want to search out with it.

If you have any suggestions for older cards I may have missed that would be really cool for the deck let me know.

It was fun working around the restrictions for a phyrexian deck, I just wish there was a little more in the way of selection of cards. I pretty much had to grab every decent u/g phyrexian card and even quite a few bad ones just to fill out the list.
