I'm sure you're already aware, but you have another infinite life combo in your deck already. Gift of Immortality + Pawn of Ulamog + Sun Titan with Ayli's first ability will grant you as much life as you need. With either Zulaport Cutthroat, Vizkopa Guildmage, or Sanguine Bond on the field you can kill off the rest of the table. Fiend Hunter can replace the gift of immortality in the combo, just remember to let it's effect fully resolve before you sacrifice it.

Tree of Perdition is a pretty great card. It really hurts one opponent, can kill the table with Sanguine Bond out, and will easily push you well past the 50 life threshold for Ayli's second ability.

Necromancy offers a similar effect to Animate Dead but can be done at instant speed if you don't care about the creature sticking around, or if you desperately need a blocker.

Alhammarret's Archive doesn't do anything by itself, but it doubles the effectiveness of two of an Ayli decks favorite things.

Tyvm for the comment and suggestions.

That is a combo i havent bumped into yet :)

I plan on getting the tree later when it rotates. I dont think it is worth $6

Archive does seem pretty sweet and orzhov decks can also use more card draw

Idk about Necromancy, but i will try it out. I like that Animate Dead gets picked up by Sun Titan

Necromancy gets grabbed by Sun Titan too, and you can loop the two of them together with him to gain a ton of life, and if you have infinite mana (maybe from Pawn of Ulamog ) or dies effect or Sanguine Bond effect set yourself up very nicely. It's also worth noting that Necromancy doesn't target when you cast it, only when it enters the battlefield which can throw some blue players off their game.

My Ayli deck might give you some more inspiration if you want to take a look at it.

Damn. You're correct. I swear Necromancys was mana cost 2BB. Eyes are playing tricks on me i guess.

I like your deck. It has some good ideas.

I have never seen Dawn of the Dead before. That thing rocks. Going to have to scoop it up.

Also, cant believe i forgot Nim Deathmantle. Pretty sure i have a few copies sitting around.

Ty for the suggestions!
