This is my first true "original" Commander build. It plays as a control/combo deck, staying alive long enough to multiply its mana and drain opponents life. This deck is essentially built around the "your opponents can't gain life" text on Erebos. Please feel free to suggest and cards and make any comments about the strategy in the format.

As always, any +1s are appreciated.
