Deck overview

This Orzhov deck is commanded by Niv-Mizzet, Ghost Counsel, functioning as an aristocratic lifegain and combo engine. The primary objective is to assemble a two-card infinite drain loop using an 'Exquisite Blood' effect paired with a 'Sanguine Bond' effect. The deck features deep functional redundancy with pieces like Vito, Thorn of the Dusk Rose, Enduring Tenacity, Bloodthirsty Conqueror, and Marauding Blight-Priest, backed by efficient black tutors. While setting up, the deck controls the pace of play with premier spot removal, board wipes, and life-draining stax pieces such as Sheoldred, the Apocalypse and Kambal, Consul of Allocation. Niv-Mizzet serves as a card-draw engine in the command zone, turning small lifegain increments into large hand refills. The deck reliably presents a lethal infinite drain on Turn 5.
