Basically plays like a control deck. Suiting up your creatures and the enemies with enchantments and dropping ramses to chain gun kill. Not best deck but it sure is sweet.

We run a slew of bestow creatures and constellation effects. Paired with auras that comeback after they hit the graveyard means lots of constellation triggers.

Ramses himself is kind of a fun package inside the deck.

Dont over extend react only when needed. People won't know exactly what your up to so play to that knowledge.

Anyway it is a fun deck. Kinda hard to play at first but the deck has alot of play to it.

Notable Interactions Agent of the Fates + Recurring Enchantments Good Sacrifice machine gun. You will have an over abundance of small CMC recurring spells to trigger Heroic

Minamo, School at Water's Edge + Ramses Overdark Untap effects allow you to abuse Ramses

False Demise + ETB effect Few different return creatures to battle field effects. Can even get opponents creatures too! :)

Its a good idea to set your board up before you board clear as Bestow creatures will fall off and land as creatures after everything is wiped.

Thornbite Staff + any deathtouch creature = 2 mana kill a non indestructible creature you can use over and over.

Royal Assassin + any untap effect is a halting wall any non hexproof creature would be foolish to attack into.

Currently im using Bloodgift Demon but he's kinda not as synergistic as I would like. So I'm asking for a top end creature that would be more helpful.
