Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn

"In his house at R'lyeh dead Cthulhu waits dreaming . . . That's not dead . . . which can eternal lie, and with strange eons even death may die!" -H.P. Lovecraft

Theme Basis

I've set this deck up to stay with in the certain theme. I wanted it to keep all of the creatures to 3 categories, Shapeshifters, Horrors, and Aquatics (Leviathans, Krakens, Squids, and Octopi). There are two exceptions in this ruling. The Eldrazi look like and seem like things from beyond the stars. These I pondered on for a while. I'm not sure on their lore. Also Liliana of the Dark Realms being a planeswalker and being from the dark realms its not much of a stretch to include her on this theme.

Deck Expectations

I've crafted this deck to copy, control, mill, and creature attack. There's a good number of combos, and it seems like a different deck each time. Copy your friends deck. Take control of your friends deck. Or simply clone your deck for milling or creature attack.
