Have you ever felt like winning was so last year? Well then this deck is for you. It is the first deck Ive seen whose wincon is to draw the game as ruthlessly as possibly while playing under the guise of "just a normal hug deck". It runs no ways to win, but it runs counters to most forms of disruptions that you will face as a hug deck. This deck is not built to make friends, but the draw tastes sweeter than any victory. The 4 draw-cons of the deck are as follows

Divine intervention + any pillow fort cards to keep you alive for 2 turns. This is the hardest one to pull of, but is the most rewarding. The other 3 are much less intractable.

Helm of Obedience + wheel of sun and moon on any opponent. This is the first of the true "draw cons". The combo works due to mtg rules regarding mandatory actions, and due to the fact that this cannot be broken the game immediately must end in a draw.

Stuffy doll targeting yourself + pariah this works in the same fasion as the previous one, and causes and infinite damage loop that cannot be resolved. Therefore it is a draw.

Enchanted Evening + Ajanis chosen. This generates infinite creatures that "sadly" cant ever swing due to the mandatory action of creating more and more cats!!!

Transcendence + any effect that says you can't win the game. This forms a loop that Magics own rules state is unresolvable for some reason therefor the game is a draw. "If your life total is 20 or more and you control an effect that states “you can’t lose the game”, then an infinite loop is formed. If neither player wants to end the loop by removing one of these two cards from the battlefield, the game ends in a draw." from the gatherer webpage.

Any feedback is welcome, as I am always looking to make this deck as frustrating as possible.
