We like your brains? Or.. steal your stuff and gain life from it.

Still a work in progress, as I acquire some more things that like to borrow opponent's creatures - sometimes permanently.

I've only playtested this in my group once or twice, I think, and at the time it was a bit slow. Giving it another go sometime in the near future, after a couple adjustments, so maybe it will do a little better this time around.

The big focus is using Nihiloor's second ability to gain life from stolen creatures. There are a few spells/creatures/artifacts in there that you can also use to blink creatures out and perma-steal them, so if you decide to blink Nihiloor for using his first ability, they don't return to owner. Additionally, those same blink/phasing uses can re-ETB Agent of Treachery and just keep stealin' stuff.

Lifegain from Nihiloor will make Celestial Unicorn or Voice of the Blessed or Scion of the Swarm big, so.. there's always smacking opponents with something that got a big pile of +1/+1 counters on them.
