this is a combo deck that heavily relies on the insane enchantment; Solemnity. Because solemnity prevents all counters being put on anything on the field except plainswalkers, it makes a lot of useless old mechanics, like cumulative upkeep, usable. It also prevents things that enter the battlefield with counters from entering the field with counters. Because of this I present Solemn Depths. This focuses heavily on getting the enchantment out as soon as possible by tutoring it or drawing your way to it. Once it is on the field you can cast Phyrexian Soulgourger without having to worry about its cumulative upkeep and cast thing in the ice and have it transform right away. This makes a turn four 8/8 or a two mana board wipe that leaves a 7/8 body behind. If you are headed up against an aggro deck or ramp deck, then sideboard in phyrexian Unlife to never lose the game to damage or poison counters due to Solemnity.

I do need help with the side board and achieving the combo as quickly as possible. Please feel free to test it and criticize it.
