Took the Modern/Legacy Abzan Midrange concept to build an EDH deck around.

Deck offers disruption in the form of discard effects, has solid removal, and decent card advantage.

There are three ways to win.

One is to just beat down with Anafenza, the Foremost and other creatures.

Two is to cheat a powerful threat like Elesh Norn, Grand Cenobite into play through reanimation.

Three is to combo with Animate Dead + Leonin Relic-Warder while you have a Blood Artist out.

Many cards can be swapped to adjust to different metas.

This deck is intended to be relatively budget and some cards can be swapped out for even cheaper alternatives.

Cabal Coffers + Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth is not absolutely necessary, but it's really strong.

The deck can also accommodate Protean Hulk combos if you're interested in a more combo-oriented build.

If you don't like Anafenza, the Foremost, you could try out a partner pair like Tymna the Weaver and Ikra Shidiqi, the Usurper.
