The basic idea of this deck is to lock down opposing players to buy yourself time to pull off an insta-win. If the deck is lucky then lockdowns can be fairly permanent and a blight steel colossus or storm herd will finish them off. If the deck is unlucky then insurrection or transcendence will instantly turn the tables. Also the life gain is only used as a deterrent to make players less willing to attack you or at least buy you more time. Essentially the deck sits still hoping for something awesome to save itself. I am looking for any suggestions at all to try improve this deck. Cheers.

Likewise I have included Oblivion Ring and Paradox Haze because while their main purpose is something other than donation, they do get donated.)
