This is an EDH deck where the point is what would usually be counter-intuitive; give your opponents creatures. In fact, as many as possible. Then hurt them for having those creatures.

Using cards like Blood Seeker, Vicious Shadows, Suture Priest etc to hurt the opponent and cards like Essence Warden and Authority of the Consuls to help us, we create a divide between life totals. Some pillow fort cards make sure people cannot capitalize against us. This deck makes it difficult for people to justify attacking us, as we are "helping" them by putting attackers on their field.

I'm looking for any cards that would fit in to this strategy that I may have overlooked.
