Deck overview

This deck is an Orzhov lifegain combo-control strategy built around life manipulation, passive attrition, and instant-kill loops. While Selenia, the Cursed Heart sits in the command zone providing lifegain doubling and a life-loss curse upon death, the core plan leverages two-card infinite combos between lifegain triggers and life-loss multipliers. Combining Exquisite Blood or Bloodthirsty Conqueror with Sanguine Bond, Vito, Thorn of the Dusk Rose, Enduring Tenacity, or Marauding Blight-Priest drains all three opponents to zero life in a single turn. The deck supports this finish with a dense package of low-cost Orzhov removal, mass sweepers like Toxic Deluge and The Meathook Massacre, and asymmetric tax pieces including Blind Obedience and Sheoldred, the Apocalypse. With strong early mana rocks and single-mana protection spells, the deck controls the board tempo before cleanly resolving its game-ending combo around Turn 5.
