Deck in progress. Not entirely sure if this is my finalized deck list, but the deck revolves around Ashiok, Wicked Manipulator and the various cards that combo with it. And let me tell you! While building this deck I realized that their are some absolutely disgusting combos in this deck!

So when I first started building the deck I had 3 cards in mind that I knew I wanted to use. Defiler of Flesh, Laboratory Maniac and Staff of Compleation. As the deck progressed I realized that I was missing a vital "Kill card" which was Aetherflux Reservoir. Normally this card would require a bit of lifegain to set off.. but with Ashiok, Wicked Manipulator that's no longer necessary.. so long as the deck has enough cards that is. Another card I didn't really think about adding till last minute was Bolas's Citadel which will allow me to cast stuff from the top of my library with no life loss! Finally I found Font of Agonies which is a cool creature removal spell which will combo nicely with the deck as a whole.

Like I said, the deck is in progress so I'm definitely open to any ideas or things that might make the deck better in any way. As for now, that's my Manipulation Maniac deck!
