I want to build a deck that is built to abuse the crap out of Liliana of the Veil as she is probably my favorite walker of all time. I think a Rock/Pox style of approach would be the best attempt to make her at her best. Anyway here is the thought process and I would love feedback:
4 Liliana of the Veil
Yes I want 4 of them. She can discard herself to herself! So even in multiples she isn't that bad!
3-4 Lingering Souls
Flashback is cheap, protection, win condition. This card is insane value.
2-3 Life From the Loam
Dredge is a great way to get all of these awesome value spells into the graveyard. That and Wastelocking someone is the best thing in the world.
4 Cabal Therapy
Maybe in a creature light deck it is not at it's best, but damn if this isn't the most fun card ever created. I just love it so much. Also we need a way to stop the combo decks from destroying me. Also Lingering Souls is a great way to flash it back.
That is essentially the core of the deck that I would like to create. I have other ideas from both the rock and GB Pox that I would like to either incorporate or at least give thought:
Nether Spirit
More of a pox card for sure and it usually is the only one of it's kind (a creature) in the deck. Helps flashback therapy, blocks forever, attacks. So much value off of Lily discard as well!
Bloodghast
Again same reason as the spirit, though the no blocking clause is rough.
Smallpox
Not sure if this is needed or even good in the deck, but I do love casting smallpox.
Maelstrom Pulse
This deck is pretty weak to walkers and Pulse is great at answering them.
Pernicious Deed
I think enough has been said about this card. Its awesome.
Garruk Primal Hunter
Wow greedy right? I just love this guy to death. I doubt he will make the cut because of his casting cost being tough at triple green AND 5 mana...
Wurm Harvest
Wurms! Similar to Lingering souls, but it is better in the late game I would think.
