I am looking to build an Oloro EDH deck, what do u suggest?
Spirit of the Labyrinth and Sanguine Blood could help the deck, maybe.

The card is Sanguine Bond . I hate it when people think they can get mentioned because people don't know card names properly. (I don't blame you jtheu10, I think i made that mistake as well at first)

Sorry i looked the card up so i wouldn't recomend the wrong card or spell it wrong.I just joined yesterday so what is the mentioned thing?

I'll try to make a test deck to recomend a few good life gain cards or controll but it proberly will take a while. I'll title it TheFallen,Oloro idea.

I'd like it to me more competitive to answer KingSorin's question. Im really liking all the life gain options in the cards mentioned, what about cards that utilize how much life I will have like Necropotence ?

Make sure you have a good amount of removal, because if you use your life to pay costs someone will run white and use Angel of Jubilation .
Yawgmoth's Bargain is a similar version of Necropotence , except it costs more and doesn't force you to exile what you discard. It also gives you the cards right away rather than at the end of the turn. Fetch lands are always an option to grab shocks and the like. Phyrexian Processor will be a powerhouse if you can protect it long enough. Lim-Dul's Vault will let you dig for answers. Toxic Deluge makes for a fun boardwipe. Snuff Out is some removal you can use when you have no mana. Promise of Power can prove to be fun. Dystopia is great if green or white are played a lot in your group. Greed for more draw. Griselbrand is an obvious choice. Demon of Death's Gate can be paired well with Grave Titan to produce the creatures to sac. Vile Consumption will slowly gnaw at your opponent's board or life total. Phyrexian Reclamation will offer good recursion. Nightmare Lash will be super powerful, especially if you put in Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth . Cavern Harpy can let you abuse ETB effects. Last one. Phyrexian Colossus . I don't think I need to explain why this one is good.

Rhox Faithmender , Chalice of Life Flip , Necropotence , Solitary Confinement , Phyrexian Arena , Voltaic Key ...just sit back force them to drink from your chalice(twice), all while chillin in your little bubble.

Yawgmoth's Bargain is also banned. Also: i'm not an expert on competitive, but epoch or someone may be able to give you some tips.

Serra Avatar , Disciple of Griselbrand and Phyrexian Reclamation lead to a double your life total for B2 mana situation. You soon just stop counting.

Reclamation bounces to hand, so it's 6BWWW. There's probably something else like Sheoldred, Whispering One that would work efficiently though.

well. Oloro, Ageless Ascetic would be a good start. :) Jks. Is this competitive? Casual? Combo? I'm sure there's an infinite mana / life loop with Staff of Domination you could use to win with oloro's ability, but i'm not sure whether this is how you'd want to go about winning. I'm no edh expert, but i think Blind Obedience , Sun Droplet (each upkeep, i misread it too), and Absorb would be good things to start off with. Archangel of Thune and lifelink dudes are also helpful. Exsanguinate and Debt to the Deathless are also stars in EDH
