Note: This deck has gone through major revisions since this description was created, and I've been too lazy to update it. Update is soon to come, though!
A Combo deck centered around Oloro, Ageless Ascetic. The deck revolves strongly around gaining life and keeping your opponents at bay until you manage to combo out. The deck is good at stalling for time to find our wincons.
Suggestions
Updates Add
Diabolic Tutor --> Behold the Beyond:
Discarding your hand seems like a small price to pay to tutor for three cards. If you discard a combo piece, tutor for the other pieces and Open the Vaults. Could also try tutoring for Vedalken Orrery, Day's Undoing, and any other card that might be needed. Not sure how well this switch is going to go, but I believe it's worth a try.
Palace Siege --> Return to Dust:
The first ability on Palace Siege is normally useless, as I focus more on artifacts and enchantments than creatures. The second ability works well with cards such as Well of Lost Dream, Boon Reflection, Paradox Haze, among many others. However, the results aren't usually very impressive, even in best case scenarios. I think the Return to Dust will be much more versatile and capable of turning the tables around with a skillful cast; a switch that will likely stay.
Sphinx's Revelation --> Expedition Map
:
Now this was a tough decision. The Sphinx's Revelation has been very underwhelming in my experience, since I've never used it for more than X = 4. It could possibly set off the Exquisite Blood+Sanguine Bond for 4 mana, but Expedition Map can do that for 3 (colorless/of any color!) mana by tutoring for Tranquill Cove or any of the other life lands. Expedition Map is also more versatile in that it allows me to tutor for no max hand size with Reliquary Tower, protection from damage with Glacial Chasm, or a land for the early game. Admittedly an interesting switch, but one that I think I will like.
