MY MAIN GOAL IS TO BLOW UP

Ok so here's the deal. Lords. Lots of them. And the ones that aren't lords? BUFF AS HELL. The intended goal of this is to gain momentum by churning out many cheap creatures/lords and pumping them as much as humanly possible. This should be made pretty easy if you can get an Aether Vial out and up to 2-3 counters on it. Once you reach turn 4 and on you should hopefully be aiming to summon some of the legendary creatures and/or Bloodline Keeper  . Depending on what you pull, these creatures will either lead you to to an immediate boost in your chances of winning, or at very least help you gain some health to keep you alive longer so your smaller vamps can finish pumping and doing all the dirty work (and to help make up for damage probably done via shock/fetch lands and opponents).

SIDE DISHES FOR YOUR BEEF SIR

• Dismember (Indestructible hate)
• Nihil Spellbomb (Dredge hate+card draw)
• Thoughtseize (Just use this game 2 and onwards)
• Surgical Extraction (More Dredge/Combo hate)
• Blood Artist (Throw these in if you're facing a board wipe heavy deck, it'll really save your ass)
• Fragmentize (Tron hate)

ADDITIONAL NOTES

If anyone has any questions or suggestions I'll be sure to answer ASAP. I will be sure to tell you what i've tried and haven't tried and will happily listen to any constructive criticism/advice.

P.S.

If you don't wanna buy Cavern of Souls, just use Ancient Ziggurat. It's fundamentally the same thing for like 1/100th of the price.
