This is a life-gain combo/draw deck. Main combo is infinite life drain via Sanguine Bond/Vizkopa Guildmage and Exquisite Blood.

Also there are some nice win-cons with Felidar Sovereign and Celestial Convergence.

Sometimes a win can be procured with Serra Avatar + Whispersilk Cloak. With enough life and Sanguine Bond/Vizkopa Guildmage, Beacon of Immortality or Serra Avatar + Spirit Loop or any other kind of massive amount of life-gain (Ajani's ultimate with Soul Warden on the field) can be game-ending for opponents.

The card draw comes inherently with Oloro's second ability, though it is bolstered by Necropotence, Mesa Enchantress, Alhammarret's Archive, Greed, Rhystic Study and Drogskol Reaver.

Alone, the card advantage is great. However, with Prognostic Sphinx on the field, the ability to draw the cards I want to draw comes into play. Also, the no maximum hand size provided by Venser's Journal/Reliquary Tower/Tamiyo's Emblem/Library of Leng beef up Psychosis Crawler and create a big body, as well as a great way to win via Psychosis Crawler to ping 1 for each card drawn.
