EDH Deck in B/W/R focused on politics and board control. The strategy is to make political alliances that seem to benefit other players or keep them busy amongst themselves, while you gain a slight advantage or negotiate for eartly protection until you can pillowfort yourself into a safe position to outmaneuver the competition. This deck is very wrath heavy because there are plenty of cheap options to protect Marchesa (almost always the only creature we'll have on the board) while we set the entire table back a turn or two by clearing their creatures. This will keep any aggro decks from knocking us out before we can layer down our control and stax. Long may she reign.
