Totally giving in to my folly of trying to do too many things at once in one deck here lmao...

Playtesting Notes:
-Need to protect creatures from bounce - hexproof or Shroud... probably slotting in Swiftboot Boots for Lich which is hard to cast with 4 black mana symbols. Maybe Sejiri Steppe or Lumbering Falls lands. Limit is not instant speed or can equip indestructibl etc with
-More efficient tutors.

General Strats:
1. Non-harming (pillow-fort/rattle-snake subthemes):
-Subtheme of having a choice of sparing and precise disruption and humanitarian/police-state interventions (da social safety net, helping player in last, screwing with player in first place).
-Stuffy doll??
Combat tricks with stuffy doll?
1x Master Warcrafter
1x Prey Upon
1x Ulvenwald Tracker
-Giving control of pillow-fort or rattlesnake or troll permanents
-Rattlesnake staples: http://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/token-justice-copy/ (meh resource)
-Pillowfort staples: http://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/mh-pillow-fort/
-Discussion of rattlesnake cards: https://goyfwars.wordpress.com/2016/04/26/rattlesnakes-in-edh/
2. Unkillable: (life-gain, damage prevention and damage redirection subthemes)
-Altering win and lose-cons: Phyrexian Unlife, Ad Nauseum, Platinum Angel.
-Redirection to indestructible Palisade Giant or Spellskite-Turbo fog inspirations: http://www.mtgsalvation.com/forums/the-game/commander-edh/694639-theory-crafting-turbofog
-Life gain deck inspirations
-Defensive infinite combos
-Disrupt infinite combos
-Group hug subtheme
3. Mechanics: Toolbox using Sunforger, Birthing Pod, and resistant utility creatures
-Krosan Grip to disrupt Combos, Pithing Needle
-Select creature, artifact, enchantment removal
4. White card sleeves and deck box.
5. Goal: Consistency, survivability, and choice on self protection, disruption, and win-cons. No aggro.
6. Rotate out win-cons so I can prevent myself from spreading out too thin, while at the same time keeping variety and interest in my deck for the long term. Modular.
Combo with Ad Nauseum?
1x Library of Leng
1x Azusa, Lost But Seeking
Death's Shadow as a whomper on its own
