maybe some sacrifice effects like Ashnod's Altar to reset the upkeep cost, and i personally would make this either a Platinum Angel + Soul Conduit type combo build, or some sort of voltron. regardless, i would play Soul Conduit and Repay in Kind along with Platinum Angel or Platinum Emperion to negate the upkeep cost.

Atony1400 You should probably play Hero's Downfall regardless so the weird upside is even better.
RazortoothMtg The one thing about Platinum Emperion is that I don't think you can pay Gallowbraid upkeep cost. Or any life for that matter. But I'll keep it in.
Thank you for the suggestions!.

Thief of Blood and Vampire Hexmage to gt rid of those upkeep counters. Also deals with walkers

RazortoothMtg I almost use the cumulative as upside so sometimes you don't wanna remove it. I do see games where that matter though so Hexmage is probably worth playing. Not sold on thief though.
Thank you for the suggestions!

Pithing Needle works wonders with Lethal Vapors :)

Lhurgyof I originally had Lich in the deck but I cut him last minute because the deck could really easily die from it. That being said is it any better then being at 2? Either way if you get hit you probably die. And you have the chance of killing everyone with Lich and Repay in Kind. I don't know. Pithing Needle or maybe the Contamination-Reassembling Skeleton combo is the card I would cut for it

This build actually looks, feels and is (after playing with it) AMAZING!
Love the flavor and the stares you get after going boom you are all dead :p
The mirrors are super political as well so you can make both friends and enemies as you like :p

Panas Do you mean like in the play test option? Or did you actually build it in real life? Either way, Thank you for the kind words!
Anyone who actually is crazy enough to build this, send me a game report. Any changes that should be made. I'd love to read through it!

I used it in my local Halloween themed event (since it's a horror with vampires and zombies). It creates a lot of nice moments and builds up a lot of suspense. It's almost like starring as the monster in a scary movie :p
But it's a one trick pony. Once people know what you are up to they will bolt/drain you proactively. It still won me 2 out of 4 tables. Then the word spread... Of course it was a themed event and a lot of people were not playing their million dollar, super tuned decks, but some were definitely strong builds.
All in all, i loved this and will keep it around for when new people come in to give them a scare ;p

Panas Thank you! I think being a one trick pony kinda comes with the decks idea. Although you could play another infinite combo or more stuff like Grave Pact and Bloodghast to lock creatures if you wanted to focus more on staying alive. It most definitely isn't a tier one deck you should play every day.
Let me know if you change or add to the list!

Hero's Downfall, to destroy Gallowbraid if your life gets too low.
