This deck is intended to fight everyone else at once, until victory or defeat.

I don't put Child of Alara in the command zone when it dies, instead I leave it in the graveyard to reanimate it later for cheap. I use one of the many tutors to get Greater Gargadon and suspend it early on, since it's really nice to be able to sacrifice as an instant even when all my lands are tapped . This deck is old, very old. I first built it after the release of Conflux and it has slowly evolved ever since. I personally don't like infinite combos, mass land destruction, stacks or counterspells, so that's why you'll find very little of that in this deck.

My favorite win condition in my deck is Kokusho, the Evening Star + Gift of Immortality (FYI, you can sacrifice it every player's turn)
