This is pretty good as far as lifegain goes. But, ...

Ayli makes a really good commander for a combo deck.

She Also is a fantastic sac outlet on a stick for "token traffic" in a token strategy. Or Aristocrat traffic in an aristocrat + reanimation strategy.

There is several components from all three synergies mixed together in here. Should try to narrow in and focus on one.

I know that. But i wanted a deck that utilizes every aspect of her i some way, with a lot of focus on removal in combination with recursion.

Also this is not meant as a top tier deck. I hate those. I on purpose didnt include stuff like Test of Endurance or Exquisite Blood since its just boring to play.

Tested this deck 3 times so far and it gets out pretty fast and politics wise it pretty great, since i can always hold a gun to someones creatures head (or several with some of the combo stuff).

I understand what you are saying and i also looked into those decks, but this deck is build this way for a reason. Maybe some stuff will change from further testing down the line, but so far it has worked wonders.

I until very recently was using the same approach and philosophy. I wanted a bit of everything in my decks and lots of awnsers to what I knew were deck weaknesses.

Decisions like that do tend to be made with your usual group/pod metagame in mind. If the metas your in allow it, and its fun to play then that is indeed what it’s all about.

 :o :o :o

I don’t like scoring wins with Exquiste Blood and Sanguine Bond either. I see it as cheating a win like Felidar Sovereign or Revel in Riches.

But Exquisite Blood on its own is one of the most useful cards ever printed.

Hi! I like your list and i think its great that playing a fun deck means more than playing a competative deck. Do you have any plans to make any updates since ravnica allegiance was released?

I will definitivly update the list. I dont know how much of Ravnica allegiance will make it in. I still need to test this version more until i make more changes. I tend to make to much decks and then take an eternity to test them^^ but it works as a deck
