This is my improved EDH Weatherlight saga vorthos deck. I tried to include only cards related to the MTG story from after the brothers' war to the phyrexian invasion of dominaria circa late 90's early 00's (or relatively lore neutral cards to make it work).

The most consistent win condition is to attain control via Legacy Weapon, and then overrun your opponent with Primevals' Glorious Rebirth, multiple legends, and Heroes' Podium, though there are tons of interesting card interactions and tricks.

check out the companion deck Old Phyrexia 2.0

https://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/old-phyrexia-20-1/

any input is greatly appreciated on either deck, and please try to keep card suggestions lore friendly or at least as neutral as possible.
