Ok. So...I need help making a standard deck idea into a reality. Ashen Rider , Triad of Fates , and Gift of Immortality . Now, I'm trapped with the high CMC of Ashen Rider and the fact that you basically need 3 turns to do anything with Triad of Fates . Does anyone have some ideas???

The easiest solution for Ashen Rider is reanimators like Rescue from the Underworld and Obzedat's Aid .

Or, y'know, Whip of Erebos .

I hear "Exile target permanent, deal 5 damage to target player, and gain 5 life" for 4 mana isn't bad.

You could use Crypt Ghast for ramp.

Just bypass the rider and abuse High Priest of Penance with Gift of Immortality .

So I'd say use 2 Cartel Aristocrat , 3 Corpse Hauler , and 4 Xathrid Necromancer to go with 3 or 4 Gift Of Immortality + 2 Ashen Rider + 3 Liliana of the Dark Realms . High Priest of Penance fits, but typically doesn't get anywhere because the only in-color combo is Pharika's Cure . Triad of Fates is nothing but trouble because it takes multiple turns to get anywhere with it.
