A control-oriented Oloro, Ageless Ascetic build that usually wins with Exquisite Blood/Sanguine Bond combo. This deck can also just win by making it to late game, putting people to 10 life (Sorin Markov/Magister Sphinx) and finishing them off with creatures on the board. You want to draw a lot to continue to have answers to things on the board and stop opponents from gaining too much advantage. You usually don't want to have much of a board presence early, as you'll likely be wiping the board at some point, and Oloro, Ageless Ascetic's life gain gives you a great buffer. The goal is to make it late enough into the game so that you can cast Sanguine Bond and Exquisite Blood in the same turn, hopefully with a way to deal damage or gain life.

Interesting combos:

Disciple of the Ring+Merieke Ri Berit (machine gun down creatures late game)

Authority of the Consuls and Sunscorch Regent are amazing with Archangel of Thune/Karlov of the Ghost Council/Drogskol Reaver

Forbid+Necropotence (makes Forbid's buyback 2 life, essentially)

Mystical Tutor/Vampiric Tutor+Terminus (1 mana tutorable board wipe)
