Become the Monarch! Then establish a veneer of democracy which you undermine at every turn, solidifying your power and forcing your opponent to vote for their own demise, while also punishing them for disagreeing with you.

Deck uses typical Orzhov control cards stall the game ( Duress , Castigate , Cast Down , fav edicts) and draw as much as possible ( Glint Hawk + Prophetic Prism , Thraben Inspector , Monarch cards).

Use flyers to protect your crown and beat down your opponent.

Finally, for the win, cast Tyrant's Choice and vote for torture, presenting your opponent a false choice which guarantees 4 damage. Or better, get out Ballot Broker + Grudge Keeper , cast Tyrant's Choice and vote for both options, and give them the choice of lose 6, or sac a creature and lose 2.

Consume Spirit in case the game runs long. Will probably need some prophetic prisms.

Sideboard Swaps:

Kinda Always Broker/Bragos/2Sentinel -> Missionary/Guildpack Guardian;

Grudge Keeper -> Okiba-Gang Shinobi

If draining... (via spells, and less creatures)

Get Lone Missionary

Disfigure -> Hallow

Dead Weight-> Hallow

Edict/Cast Down -> Duress/Castigate

Strands don't protect from "lose life"

If Heavy Graveyard interaction:

Prism -> Progenitus (maybe Tormod's)

Edict / Cast Down -> Unmake / Journey to Nowhere;

No Shinobi

If many Creatures Damage or Sacrifice: Pris -> Holy Day? (cheaper)

Dawn Charm

If Threat Creature Damage:

Standard Bearer
