Death's Awakening

Hey!

Before we start, I just want to say that this deck has been my lovechild with magic over quite some time.. I seriously have put a lot of time and effort into the construction. Lots of hours in the kitchen, game rooms, and tournament tables. So, if you like it, please let me know by hitting that upvote button. If you think there are some changes I could make, let me know in the comments. As always, thank you TappedOut community!

First, you'll need two very important things to happen.

1. you will need Varolz, the Scar-Striped to be out on the field as soon as possible in the early game.

2. you absolutely have to have Death's Shadow in your graveyard. He is the big money ticket to a super enjoyable win.

2022 - This deck was made and played 5 years ago now. I have been out of the modern circle for some time now and would like to know of any newer cards that may slot in well here. Thanks!
