So the idea is to ramp into Vilis, Broker of Blood as quick as possible, after having played something that allows free lifeloss, from there, there are several different routes to victory. Firstly you use one of the free lifeloss engines, like Doom Whisperer , Wall of Blood , or Blood Celebrant ( the last one requiring an extra black man to continue the combo) to draw cards with Vilis's ability. Then use those cards to generate mana with rituals or artifacts and use that mana to play a Tendrils of Agony , Aetherflux Reservoir , or gray merchant to continue drawing cards, until you can eventually play a Skirge Familiar to discard cards for a big Exsanguinate . Another option is to get Psychosis Crawler down before you go off with the demon dealing damage for each card drawn and killing with the merchant or the tendrils. Note, a few cards can be a little tricky, like Necropotence which could end up exiling your win cons, or Lion's Eye Diamond that needs to be used early because keeping your cards is so important for Skirge Familiar . The one shot effects of lifeloss are also tricky to use because it will be difficult to determine a number. The cards drawn will determine which win con to go for or how many tutors you have to use to get there, most of which also cost life. The interaction with those is also fantastic. Like with Vampiric Tutor , which puts a card on top and then you draw 2 cards from the lifeloss. Also Aetherflux Reservoir is just there for the life gain, the activated ability will probably just deck you. Suggestions appreciated, this is definitely just a first draft.
