Newer, More Evil, Priests

Cleric synergy with a nice little bit of life leeching wholesomeness. We always knew priests were evil; this deck is empirical, eschatological proof.

Overall strategy:

• Open with a life-gain-heavy buildup in the early game, with Lunarch Veteran  , Kor Celebrant, Cleric of Life's Bond and Righteous Valkyrie.This buys time to establish a strong board position, as Voice of the Blessed, Luminarch Aspirant and Cleric of Life's Bond start to add +1/+1 counters.

• Flyers start coming out in the mid-game, ideally boosting into an early win with Righteous Valkyrie.

• If that doesn't work out, Taborax, Hope's Demise, Markov Purifier and Orah, Skyclave Hierophant help sustain through early and mid-game aggression, emerging into a strong late game.

• In a worst case scenario, Nighthawk Scavenger, Hagra Mauling   and Poison the Cup mitigate larger threats as they emerge. Mask of Griselbrand should help out-draw most opponents if the game goes stagnant long enough to see it.

• Landing on board full of life-gain and lifelink, Marauding Blight-Priest makes a nice extra push to help close out the game.

Overall, a pretty straightforward, mostly cleric-based synergy deck. Comments and suggestions welcome.
