Afflicted Constellation

Pharika, the god worshipped mostly in Setessa's Winter Nexus, is apparently associated with grief and old age. Deadly poison can be healing medicine in small amounts, and this dichotomy is reflected in the god whose province is such tinctures. Pharika is the keeper of apothecary knowledge and the source of dark magic, potions and poison. She is also the mother of all Gorgons, who are said to have hidden many cures within their blood. Pharika herself is thought to take the form of a gorgon, Prayers to her are usually letters rolled up in ceramics and dumped in bogs. Stories say that the secretive god has hidden medicinal knowledge within the natural world. For example, in basilisk blood, although most die trying to learn them.

Why Pharika Constellation?

Pharika, God of Affliction has a special place in my heart as she is the first Nyx god I pulled and was the centerpiece of one of my more fun decks. I wanted to bring her back and decided Commander was the best way to immortalize the god.

My plan is to run a constellation deck with a bunch of self-mill which will Pharika to trigger constellation as many times as needed with her ability. However I have no real experience with constellation so this is what I just threw together quickly and I would really appreciate some help in making this deck strong and consistent!
