The deck specializes in a wide variety of high synergy combos, while slowing and hindering progress via "RoL" and "Silence" effects, which double as combo protection. It does require moderate mull strategy, in order to see combo/tutor paths.

Basic strategy is to have Elas il-Kor, Sadistic Pilgrim on field. From there the main combo line will follow as

Put Leonin Relic-Warder or Abdel Adrian, Gorion's Ward into yard with any of the 4 "Entomb" (Buried alive, Unmarked grave, Final parting)

Then you reanimate with Necromancy (Dance of the dead, animate dead)

It infinite loops and kills everyone with Elas triggers.

The deck also utilizes other combo paths or backups:

Praetors grasp (or opp agent) for someone's thoracle so you can use demonic or tainted pact.

or angels grace + adnaus or (golden throne for style points)

or walking ballista + heliod

of note this deck include Lurrus but not as a companion- instead using it as a pseudo yawgs will to recur plays with its combo line.

This deck can be honed and tweaked by also cutting down on combo options or different combo chains in order to swap in alternative meta based stax or removal or bringing in wombos such as aristocrats (vizier/persist etc)- example:

Cut abdel Adrian and focus only on LRR as a glass cannon focus. Cut alternative “turbo” win cons in order to bring in removal for a tempo strategy- ie angels/ad/goldenthrone/ Tainted/decon/oppagent Ballista/heliod Alternative combos are 8+ slots that can instead be recursion or meta based protection (removal for gy hate/ protection) - pull from eternity, etc
