Oloro Lifegain by GrimJuggernaut

Format: Commander

Commander: Oloro, Ageless Ascetic

Bracket: 4

Deck overview

Oloro, Ageless Ascetic sits in the command zone as a passive 2-life heartbeats, while the 99 do the real work of turning life gain into cards and damage. The main plan is to pair a life-gain payoff (Sanguine Bond, Vito, Enduring Tenacity) with a life-loss feedback piece (Exquisite Blood or Bloodthirsty Conqueror); once any life-gain trigger starts, the loop drains all opponents. Secondary paths are Aetherflux Reservoir payload, Felidar Sovereign's upkeep win, and Exsanguinate at a high life total. There is no double-faced commander; Sorin and Sheoldred are useful DFC values but not a hidden commander deck.
