Bracket: 3

Deck overview

This Orzhov Aristocrats deck, helmed by Zoraline, Cosmos Caller, converts creature deaths into life drain and card advantage. The core loop is simple: sacrifice creatures to outlets like Viscera Seer and Carrion Feeder, triggering Blood Artist, Zulaport Cutthroat, Cruel Celebrant, Elas il-Kor, Sadistic Pilgrim, and Vraan, Executioner Thane to bleed the table. Zoraline provides repeatable recursion, returning MV 3 permanents from the graveyard to the battlefield each time she enters or attacks. The primary win condition is the Reveillark + Karmic Guide infinite loop with a sac outlet and drain payoff, assembled directly by Buried Alive into Living Death. Secondary plans grind out with token generation from Sanguine Evangelist and Case of the Stashed Skeleton, plus a deep recursion suite that makes the deck exceptionally hard to put away.
