The Mission of this Deck is to first beat and then be a competitive match for Only I Can Live Forever, it focuses on achieving this by stripping OICLF of it's main advantages which are also it's greatest weaknesses, a heavy reliance on artifacts and enchantments to produce creatures, this is acheived through spells that destroy or exile these cards, the other is a reliance on murder spells to snipe opponents cards at low cost, the proposed solution I have is Indestructible and Hexproof to protect my creatures, another strenght of his is intensly strong and ever growingly strong monsters to come in and pummel me, the attempted solution is to use a combination of fog, combat tricks and wards to fight and protect myself from losing health, my goal is to strip him of the early game advantage by using naturalize to remove his early artifacts and enchantements, then by building a creature advantage by stripping away his factories before boosting myself up and pummeling him, all the while protecting my relatively few creatures from his snipes, and hopefully building up fatties while doing so and using spells like scavenging ooze to cleanup any creatures of mine who get ganked so that he cannot use the final known option, using crypt incursion to absorb life from my dead critters, creatures like Terra Stomper and Swarmborn Giant are meant to finish him off while Archetype of Endurance is mostly meant to protect my creatures from murders as i run out of protection spells, but he could still potentially deal around 12 damage in a pinch
