This deck is an Abzan version of the popular Seasons Past + Dark Petition combo oriented towards dealing with the Weenie/Token builds that are so prevalent in the Meta right now.

Any helpful suggestions (or up-votes) would be appreciated.

THE CONCEPT:

Kill/exile every Creature or Planeswalker an opponent plays using Intants/Sorceries to prevent them from establishing a board presence.

Fetch with Dark Petition .

Recur with Seasons Past .

Gain life and Lands with Nissa's Renewal .

Win with by using Secure the Wastes to flip Westvale Abbey   into Ormendahl, Profane Prince or with Kalitas, Traitor of Ghet or with Planeswalkers... Or by your opponent scooping because the game is taking too long and they are frustrated with you...

HITTING CURVE:

T1: Land

T2: Land, Kill-Spell

T3: Land, Read the Bones /Kill-Spell

T4: Land, Languish

T5: Land Dark Petition into Nissa's Renewal / Seasons Past

T6: Land, Nissa's Renewal / Seasons Past

T7-T20+: Frustrate your opponent with the Dark Petition / Seasons Past combo until their deck runs out of steam and you can field your Planeswalkers or flip Westvale Abbey  .

CREATURES:

Nissa, Vastwood Seer  : Fetches a Forest early game to help hit curve and flips into Nissa, Sage Animist with 7+ Lands.

Kalitas, Traitor of Ghet : Gains life and synergises with Kill-Spells to exile creatures and create Zombie Tokens.

PLANESWALKERS:

Gideon, Ally of Zendikar : So much value here. He produces blockers and can hit for 5 points of damage. He also demands an opponent's attention and draws their removal spells.

Nissa, Sage Animist : Comes into play as Nissa, Vastwood Seer   and fetches a Forest . She is great for card advantage.

Ob Nixilis Reignited : Kills a Creature on entry with his -3 and provides card advantage at a small cost to life total.

Sorin, Grim Nemesis : Provides card advantage that pings an opponent's life total. Can kill Creatures/Planeswalkers and gain life.

INSTANTS:

Anguished Unmaking : Permanent exile at a fairly steep cost to life total.

Grasp of Darkness : Kills a lot of Creatures in the Meta. Especially great against an animated Land or Archangel Avacyn  .

Secure the Wastes : The key to flipping Westvale Abbey  . Also great for chump-blocking.

Ultimtae Price: The bane of mono-colored Creatures.

SORCERIES:

Dark Petition : The First part of the main combo in this deck. Fetches whatever you need (most especially Seasons Past ) and with Spell mastery, easily obtained in with this deck, provides mana to cast a Kill-Spell.

Declaration in Stone : Permanent exile. Mass-removal against Tokens.

Infinite Obliteration : An excellent target for Dark Petition . Lets you really hate on a particular Creature.

Languish : Mass-removal that kills much of the current Meta.

Nissa's Renewal : An amazing card that gains life, fetches Lands, and thins the deck. Once the Dark Petition / Seasons Past combo loop starts you can begin casting this every other turn for massive life gain.

Planar Outburst : Decent mass-removal that kills Creatures that Languish doesn't.

Read the Bones : Excellent draw/card advantage.

Ruinous Path : Planeswalker hate.

Seasons Past : The other 1/2 of the combo. Allows for recursion. Insane card advantage.

LANDS:

Caves of Kolios/ Llanowar Wastes : / pain-lands.

Evolving Wilds : Necessary in a 3-color deck.

Forest / Plains / Swamp : Basics.

Hissing Quagmire / Shambling Vent : / man-lands.

Westvale Abbey  : Win condition once flipped into Ormendahl, Profane Prince .
