I've had this deck for years and have slowly built it up. Currently, it is a combo deck that seeks to play out of the deck while using graveyard recursion as a value engine to build up until you can grab your combos out of your deck.

Typically Karador decks want to mill themselves as fast as possible, but not here! The typical plays are to go for an Oracle early and try to ramp out faster than your opponents. Once that happens, you go for your Boonweaver Giant to grab as much out of your library as possible, then proceed to set up the combos to win.

I avoided a lot of the self-milling effects and deck strategy as graveyard hate is highly prevalent. This way, you can lay low until it is too late for any grave hate effects to really affect you.
