Use Every Resource Available With Varina, Lich Queen

Run through your deck by taking advantage of card draw, self mill, and life gain to win with Tainted Pact and Thassa's Oracle , or using Gravecrawler and Phyrexian Altar with Corpse Knight , Wayward Servant , or Diregraf Captain .

The deck wants to play as an Aggro/Midrange deck that reacts to the board while looking for attacks to draw cards with Varina, Lich Queen 's ability. It is surprisingly resilient and adaptable at the cost of speed. It's not hyper fast, but it not slow either.
