This deck is meant to be a birthday present to everyone's favorite evincar of Rath, Davvol. The Phyrexian human who dines alone, and whose birthday is easily forgotten. This deck utilizes combos featuring the most flavorful card text and combo, Carnival of Souls, arguably one of the worst/best (depending on who is answering), cards in MTG history. The main point of the deck, is to offset the life loss from Carnival of Souls with any of the "ETB Life Trigger" creatures (Auriok Champion/Essence Warden/Soul Warden/Soul's Attendant/Suture Priest/Healer of the Pride). This deck is focused on featuring all cards with Davvol's words or likeness, and is centered on producing tokens, then using the tokens to further promote an infinite combo. As usual, feel free to like, up-vote, and share. Please, play responsibly.

Happy Birthday Davvol!
