Varina, Lich Queen seems like the perfect esper zombie commander. Instead of focusing heavily on more direct tribal shenanigans I thought it would be more fun and effective to design a deck that employs zombies as a win condition but utilizes many of the strong control cards that the esper color combination has to offer.
