Bruse & Ravos, Death & Glory

[Tevesh]

The very first draft of this was using Allies with Bruse. He's an Ally, he'll trigger them and Ravos can Raise Dead them to trigger the Allies again. I didn't play Standard when Allies where a thing, so I had to discover on my own that Allies suck. But I saw potential and so I just slapped in a bunch of efficient, threatening Creatures. Luckily, I already had the manabase for Mardu Aggro when I played Edgar Markov. Instead of boring Vampires pouring out of every orifice, I'm going to be playing threats. Hell, I'm even thinking of adding a nontoken death theme based off of the current skeleton.

I made a few changes but this deck just feels like an inferior Marchesa, the Black Rose with extra steps and those steps aren't interesting. The deck gets the axe.
