Look at me trying to get a Bitter Ordeal combo to work in CMDR.........

This is a mono black deck meaning the mandatory Helm of Obedience and Leyline of the Void is in here as an alt win condition.

Well I did it, it works. The goal is super simple but it needs 3 cards, then a finish. So without further ado, lets get to the combo.

It works like this: You need 1 Basal Sliver this is going to let you sac slivers to get two , very very important. We actually don't use slivers that much nor the mana. We are looking for Skeletal Changeling. This is the point where you say, "hey you can't regen a sac creature," you are correct, we arn't. What we need now is a very special legendary creature. We need Haakon, Stromgald Scourge. Now we sac our sliver changeling for two , return our knight sliver at a cost of , then f@ck em and do it again and again. We have established a loop. When doing this state you that you do this for n+1 times so that you net two .

Now the obvious win is Bitter Ordeal for all cards. But we can always Blood Artist if need be.

You'll notice the deck is just mana ramp, and fetch. One of the best cars in here is Final Parting. It does two things we need, drop haakon and fetch needed cards. Do not use your discards they are for haakon in case you draw him.
