Just a fun expedition into the Orzhov world of gain and drain. There will for sure be revisions but it's been a fun one so far. Working on the win cons still but the primary is the Exquisite Blood / Sanguine Bond combo, Felidar Sovereign and Aetherflux Reservoir .

It's seen pretty good success in a high power meta dominated by Oloro, Ageless Ascetic Stax, The Gitrog Monster , Prossh, Skyraider of Kher , Nekusar, the Mindrazer and Avacyn, Angel of Hope . It's got a little bit of something for everyone and is a ton fun (for me lol).

Always looking for suggestions! It's my first foray into making a 'mean' deck (if you can call it that) to keep up with the others so the more degenerate and salt inducing the suggestions the better! Trying to get it as 'competitive' as possible
