Astarion - Test 2 by Avissar

Format: Commander

Commander: Astarion, the Decadent

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

Astarion, the Decadent leads an Orzhov lifegain aristocrats deck that wins by turning every life gain into opponent life loss. You build a board of Soul sisters, token makers, and drain enchantments, then use Astarion's end-step Feed to double an opponent's life loss or Friends to double your life gain. Bloodletter of Aclazotz and Alhammarret's Archive amplify the exchange, while Exquisite Blood paired with Sanguine Bond, Vito, or Enduring Tenacity creates an infinite drain loop from any trigger. Exsanguinate and Revival // Revenge provide direct finishers when the board stalls.
