The only right way to play Marchesa: Politics.

This is a work in progress! I'm trying to filter the decklist. (I already have a good number of lands, artifacts and instants, so I need to remove creatures, enchantmants and sorceries.)

This deck's goal is not about winning, but to be the monarch, sitting on your throne, watching your opponents fighting each other to death. Just sit back and watch the show! Hopefully you can manage a second place, but who knows what can happen? Maybe you'll run away with the victory in the end.

(Multiplayer only!)

I'm trying a few things here:

1. Exploiting monarchy, of course.
2. Building a pillowfort, making it difficult or bad to attack me.
3. Encouraging my opponents to attack each other, making it profitable.
4. Voting schenanigans for fun and for the thematic.
5. A full cycle of Aura Curses and vows enchantments. Swear allegiance to the new queen, or die!

(Saying this is kinda weird for me, 'cause Brago, King Blink182 is my main commander and I wish he was still... Alive? xD)

Hope you guys like it, please upvote if you do! :)
