Deck Description

This is my second try to create a non generic 1vs1 competitive french commander. But it has a little Orzhova subtheme with cards like Greed, Tithe or Gift of Estates. I tried to combine the nasty flavor of the Orzhova Church with a really good competitive strategy.

How to Play

In the first 1-3 turns, you try to tatter your opponents hand with spells like Thoughtseize, Distress or other discard spells to get him out of removals or counter magic. If you find some time and the right card, get some Draw through Phyrexian Arena or other draw spells. After this, tutor some really nasty removal, like Nevermore and forbid the opponents commander, if it's relevant for its gameplay. In turn 4-5, the first shock is gone and your opponent will try to recover. Get some beats or Obzedat on the field to get a clock. If this doesn't fit, just play reactive. Start the sweepers, leech his creatures and his hand. You will find a win condition. When nothing of this works, get Sanguine Bond and Exquisite Blood and finish him over Extort or some Lifelinkee.
