Deck discussion for EDH: Oloro, Ageless Ascetic

Why is Serra Avatar not in here? Also, you probably want some version of Clone in here, because you can clone Oloro, then send the original Oloro back to the command zone, and be gaining 4 life per turn instead of your regular 2. I would take out the lands that are similar to Azorius Chancery, they just set you back, mana wise. Exsanguinate is also very effective, especially in combination with the Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth + Cabal coffers combo, or the Power Artifact + Grim Monolith/Basalt Monolith combo.

I appreciate your commenting on my deck, and thank you for your input. The reason I don't have Serra Avatar in my deck is because most of my friends play Agonizing Demise and I don't want to get killed by it. I have actually been thinking I need a clone like card, but I don't know what is the best one for my deck. Do you have any other suggestions?

Well, there's cackling counterpart, which you can flash back if the token gets killed, but I would recommend Phyrexian Metamorph, just because you can have it come into play as an artifact or a creature. That being said, you don't really have too many artifacts in here, you may want to consider Blightsteel Colossus, Platinum Emperion, Thran Dynamo, possibly a Grim Monolith/Basalt Monolith + Power Artifact combo, Lich's Mirror, and Norn's Annex. I would also replace Impulse with Rhystic Study.

I just placed an order in for the Basalt Monolith + Power Artifact, and I will add in my Phyrexian Metamorph. IF I were to add the Colossus and Emporium, what would you recommend taking out? I already tried the Lich's Mirror, but it would just make me a target and then I would die twice in a row. I like the idea of Norn's Annex, and I will be ordering a copy of Rhystic Study.

I would take out Prognostic Sphinx and Restoration Angel, because Restoration Angel is most helpful with flicker decks, and I only see it being useful with Grave Titan and Iona. Prognostic Sphinx's scrying ability is helpful, but with Rhystic Tutor, you'll have static card draw and it won't be necessary. While its hexproof ability is nice, I don't see much reanimation within the deck. Also, in regards to Jace, Mind Sculptor, I would test out the deck with him in it, and see how it fares. I've noticed that his effectiveness varies upon what kind of deck he's in.

Should you decide to put in Blightsteel Colossus, I would be very careful before dropping him if you're in a large multiplayer match, because players will automatically come after you once they see infect.
