Deck overview

This is a casual Orzhov Cleric midrange deck helmed by Orah, Skyclave Hierophant. The plan is to flood the board with Clerics, gain life, and convert death triggers into free reanimation via Orah's ability, then close through combat anthems, drain, or oversized life-total payoffs. Primary wins are go-wide combat (supported by Goldnight Commander, Call for Unity, and Marshal's Anthem), life-drain finishers like Exsanguinate and Starscape Cleric, and big bodies such as Soul of Eternity or Loxodon Lifechanter. Recursion density is real-Sevinne's Reclamation, Immortal Servitude, Whisper, Blood Liturgist, Patch Up-but the list is unfocused: almost no ramp, very little card draw, a high 3.60 average mana value, and several cards that actively fight the graveyard plan (Kunoros, Hound of Athreos, Containment Priest, Sanctifier en-Vec). It plays as a slow, grindy Bracket-2 Cleric/lifegain pile that rebuilds through attrition when Orah sticks.
