The goal of this deck is filling the "dementia space" - https://mtg.fandom.com/wiki/Dementia_space (graveyard) with creatures.

Succumbing to Dementia

For this, we use two main strategies (from the Braids, Arisen Nightmare, draw and sacrifice]:

1. Drawing a lot of cards (and discarding) Asmodeus the Archfiend, Treacherous Blessing, Demonic Lore.
2. Sacrifice for Mill, Surveil, Dredge.

Escaped from her dementia space

Braids escaped from her dementia space during the second Phyrexian invasion.

Here we used a lot of reanimator in order to navigate between the different plan :)

• Oversold Cemetery let's u recast Braid for 3 mana every turn.
• Dawn of the Dead give u a sacrifice fodder every turn, use Braid to sacrifice them before exile.

Mass reanimator. Braids then zombified Balthor in revenge for him killing Leer.

• Balthor the Defiled
• Twilight's Call can be replace by Living Death later.
• Wake the Dead Enought to reanimate good ETB cards like Abhorrent Overlord, Gray Merchant of Alphabet
