Do you struggle with keeping check of lifetotals? Do you often miss important triggers and interactions? Now you can make your opponent feel just as confused, with "Sand" (Good luck!).

This is my attempt at a somewhat competitive lifegain combo/control deck. Although this deck can combo with Ad Nauseam+Phyrexian Unlife to essentially win on the spot, it's built in a way that allows you to win without drawing either of those. You do not need Phyrexian Unlife to combo (I originally built the deck without it) and you do not need Ad Nauseam to control the board. I wanted to make sure that if a part of the deck was removed, there would still be a reasonable way to win.

Notable interactions: Aetherflux Reservoir+Children of Korlis will let you blow up Spellskite with the most of style. Vizkopa Guildmage+Martyr of Sands is a 7-mana "kill-combo" that ignores Leyline of Sanctity. Sideboard: Sunscour+Bojuka Bog is a 0 mana exile the board for dredge/living-end etc.

Sideboard is not quite done, and I'm trying to figure out what needs to be there still.
