Deck overview

This is a Zoraline, Cosmos Caller Orzhov Bat-tribal deck built around constant life gain and life-drain loops. The strategy is incremental: deploy cheap flying bats, trigger life gain from attacks and enters-the-battlefield effects, then use that life to fuel Zoraline's repeatable recursion (paying life to return any nonland permanent with mana value 3 or less) and to power cards like Lunar Convocation and Starscape Cleric that convert each life gain into opponent life loss. The deck has no explosive combos or tutors; it wins by grinding out value over many turns, recurring key pieces from the graveyard, and eventually draining three opponents to zero. It is a fair midrange deck that is heavily dependent on its tribal synergies and life-gain triggers to function.
