5 colour curses. This deck could probably be a lot better with Lynde, Cheerful Tormentor as the commander, with all the green and white cards being swapped to counter and kill spells, but I didn't want to miss out on any of the good curses since there's just not many of them. Go-Shintai of Life's Origin also really benefits from the cost reduction of cards like Herald of the Pantheon and Starfield Mystic, cutting into any commander tax you might build up if you get enough of them on the field. It also helps that it only costs 1 specific mana as opposed to 3. I also really like that you can bring curses back from the graveyard if the player they're attached to dies without attaching them to you and suffering a bunch of negative effects. Yenna, Redtooth Regent is great for copying any curses you have on the field in rapid succession. The curse you want to get out quickest is Curse of Misfortunes. Zur the Enchanter *f-etch* is another card to get out quick so you can cheat as many enchantments onto the field as possible.

The fact that Duskmourn didn't have a single curse in it is completely baffling to me. Duskmourn, a horror-themed set (read real life curses), overtly focused on enchantments of all card types (read AURA CURSES), didn't get any curses. Instead we got another subtype that'll never come back in rooms. I get that Wizards wanted to make it feel different from Innistrad, but when they make a card like Grievous Wound and don't make it a curse, I really question their thought process. Grievous Wound, an aura that enchants a player and is purely negative. Gee, doesn't that sound awfully similar to something else that already exists? I'm probably just imagining things.
