This is my firts deck. I liked the idea of the Maralen combos and I am trying to make several of them on the same deck. Hope you enjoy and feedback is welcome. I have seen primarly the combo with Maralen + Sickening Dreams + Dark Sphere but I think this a little slow in the competitive circle which I play that wins on turn 2-3. Also we play with 30 lifes 1Vs1. For this case we need to have more options in tutoring like: Vampiring Tutor, Demonic Tutor and maybe Grim Tutor. When you play Maralen most of the times the firts to tutor is your opponent and searches for removal or counters. So if we loose Sickening Dreams via counter we need to wait for Elixir of Inmortality or Feldons Cane which puts our oponent in a defensive way.

So I think of other options:

Opposition Agent + Maralen. Play the agent with Flash and then have complete control of our opponent. But what happens when our opponent have big and aggresive creatures on board? This combo will become to slow.

Second option:

Maralen + Ad Nauseum + SkirgeFamiliar + Exsanguinate or Torment of Hailfire.

Remember we cant prevent damaged caused by Ad Nauseum beacuse it is loose of life.
