I created this deck and unintentionally made it super flavor. This deck has the power to either be super diplomatic or to be a dictatorship. There's a ton of removal, and a bit of stun, in the deck. The deck also includes walls that dissuade people from swinging my way via either deathtouch blockers (Ophiomancer), forced sacs (Michiko Konda, Seeker of Truth), token generators (Kazuul, Tyrant of the Cliffs, Darien, King of Kjeldor), or creature destruction (No Mercy, Teysa, Envoy of Ghosts).Meanwhile, while I am behind my wall I buy time to amass my army of soldiers (clerics, ogres, vampires, and snakes) and wait to swing big. This deck also has no problem with taken the aggressive route if the situation calls for it to.

The deck only really seems to be missing recursion, but after getting more games in with it, I patch that.

Lemme know what you think or if you see a way to make it better.
