A budget orzhov lifegain/lifedrain EDH deck I built for my boyfriend, so we can play together and try out the format. I put a lot of time into this, vampires are a mandatory subtheme as is being strictly B/W colors and budget. Took a lot of tweaking to balance all that on top of a lifedrain theme/main strategy, but I'm pretty happy with the end result! However, this is only my 2nd ever EDH deck I've built, and im new to the format and without much Magic experience in general, so please let me know of any good budget cards I could add or if there's anything I'm missing!

Primary goal of the deck is to gain life through several avenues, then drain the opponents' life while getting other lifegain effects, like +1/+1 counters or card draw. Also features primarily vampire creatures, and so has several vampire tribal cards that will, theoretically, keep the board occupied while he continues to drain the enemies every turn.
