Deck Description

I wanted an Orzhov deck that was Standard legal and was built around Obzedat, Ghost Council. So of course I put a lot of Extort in. The Exquisite Blood combo was a great fit so I put it in there too.
I finally fixed the sideboard a bit so there is Orzhov Keyrune for extra mana and blocking flexiblity. Blind Obedience if your opponent comes rushing in. I added some extra removal in form of 2x Angelic Edict. Also a flexible sweeper - Merciless Eviction.
Sublime Archangel, Treasury Thrull and Blood Baron of Vizkopa to add a little flavor.

So - hope you like it and any ideas and suggestions are more than welcome. :-)

Deck discussion for Orzhov Domination

Interesting concept. The Lifeloss and Lifegain aspects are fascinating. My only question is for the Orzhov Charms. Are they purely for killing creatures and you losing life equal to toughness?
Also, good job on the infinite lifegain/lifeloss combo with Exquisite Blood and Vizkopa Guildmage.

Thanks for your feedback. The combo is pretty neat but I couldn't use it very often because it's kinda slow and I've either already lost or killed my opponent with Obzedat before I could use it. So it's more like a fun deck around this combo. It's still competitive though - I beat some strong decks with it.
And yes - the Orzhov Charms are purely for killing creatures. I'm constantly using a lot of removal in this deck.
