First thing's first: this deck has cards in it I know aren't optimal, but I keep in here because I like them and I own them.

This deck is my own take on an Abzan graveyard-based deck, and is primarily focused around maximum value and killing everything.

Heavily value-focused sac outlets, along with draw on death effects, make sure I make the most out of every death, and re-usable res is the order of the day, with the goal that, once a card is out, it never stops being used. As such, exile and graveyard hate hoses this deck.

Frequently, the win condition comes down to commander damage, with Teneb being a solid body with wings to beat them down, and allowing me to res both my cards and theirs to keep my power, while killing everything the opponents tries to use to stop this. Hence Key to the City and Whispersilk Cloak are very useful for this, with key having the added bonus of allowing me to dump cards to res and draw me a card when it untaps, and whispersilk cloak making Teneb difficult as all hell to bring down.

Birthing Pod is, of course, broken, and Dimir House Guard is essentially 'tutor for pod'. As such, I have a curve of removal (Reclamation Sage, Ravenous Chupacabra, Shriekmaw or Acidic Slime, Noxious Gearhulk, Angel of Despair, Ashen Rider or Woodfall Primus) to allow me to just pump out the removal onto the board, where I can kill it and res it at my leisure. Panharmonicon is in the deck basically just for these guys. It's probably not optimal, but like I said at the start, I own it and it fits well enough.

Mainly I'm using this to store a decklist somewhere online, but suggestions on making this more efficient and less clunky are welcome.
