My introduction into commander a friend had the 2013 commander precon Oloro, w/ very little upgrades or changes to the deck. Fast forward 6 years later I had the opportunity to purchase the precon myself, I purchased it only changing out a few cards to focus more on life-gain. Time went on and my collection grew, as such I wanted to take this deck from a casual focus to a high powered/ more competitive standing.

Notable combos for the deck:

Sanguine Bond + Exquisite Blood to drain each opponent completely and win the game. Exquisite Blood + Vizkopa Guildmage , Defiant Bloodlord as an alternative from the former.

Other Wins: Stay above 40 with Felidar Sovereign and win on the upkeep. Get above 50 with Test of Endurance and win on the upkeep. Have a ton of life and beam people with Aetherflux Reservoir. Lastly option for winning is just swinging out with creatures such as, Serra Avatar , Serra Ascendant , Divinity of Pride , or getting Ajani's Pridemate and Bloodthirsty Aerialist massive with counter and swinging in.

If an opponent allows Bolas's Citadel to resolves its value is tremendous and can allow us to close out the game, just playing straight off the top. I also run Ad Nauseam simply to help in a bad situation, and Ad Nauseam with a high enough life total we can dig for the proper piece needed depending on the situation.

I know this build is NOT as competitive as others but it is not meant to be, adding in stax like effects, fetches, tutors, and all the good zero cost artifacts can seriously pump up the power level but that is not my plan for this deck as of yet. I wanted to make a more casual but is slightly more competitive deck that had good synergy that wasn't trying to combo out super quick, if that is along your play style I hope you enjoy the deck.
