Cleric tribal and sacrificing deck. Trying to find that balance between thematics and power, so any more "clerical" or "Orzhov-ie" suggestions are welcome to replace cards that dont fit the theme, but are too good to pass up.

Dmg prevention clerics are in there b/c voltron is popular in my playgroup (and b/c i always thought they were very neat).

Basic game plan is to control the board via stax effects; wear the opponents down with cards like Blood Artist, Zulaport Cutthroat, Starlit Sanctum , etc; then swing in for the win with a swarm of lil dudes or big demons/angels.

Growing up catholic, i always think of being in church as a lil boy- a sweaty, drunk Irishman yelling at me from the pulpit about hell and how sinful we all are, all whilist demanding coin- when i see orzhov cards. Hence the name.

Finally, i know Braids, Cabal Minion is banned but my playgroup finds the card perfectly fine in the 99- like before they consolidated the ban list.
