Olinda, Oblivious Skunkette by QuestionSleep

Format: Commander

Commander: Olinda the Oblivious

Bracket: 4

Deck overview

At first glance this is an Olinda the Oblivious odor-counter deck, but the real engine is a mono-black life-loss/lifegain drain combo shell. The commander is a repeatedly triggerable bonus: her odor counters turn every opponent's upkeep into 2 life lost, and that chip damage can be magnified with Panharmonicon, Strionic Resonator, Lithoform Engine, Conjurer's Closet, and Helm of the Host. The primary win condition is the infinite drain loop formed by Exquisite Blood or Bloodthirsty Conqueror pairing with Vito, Thorn of the Dusk Rose, Marauding Blight-Priest, or Enduring Tenacity. Secondary wins come from Gray Merchant of Asphodel devotion, Bolas's Citadel value, Syr Konrad, the Grim, and the Wound Reflection/Bloodletter of Aclazotz life-loss doubling package. The mana base is robust thanks to Cabal Coffers, Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx, and Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth, and the deck operates at full capacity without ever casting its commander.
