Oloro, chillin on this throne in his fortress of impenetrability. The deck is designed to dissuade people from attacking you. Unlike a 'Pillowfort' deck that stops people from doing much of anything to anyone, this fortress deck is made to allow other players to attack each other freely, but comes with a steep cost of attacking Oloro.

Combine the above with a ton of lifegain triggers, and ramp in order to take advantage of Oloros trigger, to ping opponents to death while maintaining card advantage.

Suggestions, comments, and +1s always appreciated!

Points of Interest/Favorite Combos:

Oloro, Ageless Ascetic + Radiant Fountain and/or any of the 7 other life giving lands = Cantrip lands! Woot, no more dead draw land pulls :)

Glacial Chasm + Dimir Aqueduct or any other of the Rav Karoo lands = Upkeep resetting for longer use without the huge life loss.

Words of Worship + Oloro = Pay (W): Gain 5 Life.

Words of Worship + Well of Lost Dreams = As much life and cards as you have mana.
