{"ops":[{"insert":"This is a multiplayer deck that can win out of nowhere. This is a deck that can only be played on occasion and preferred with new people each time because once the win condition is known, it is very easy to stop the combo.

This is a very consistent deck and topdecks like nothing, I have won many games from a topdeck that I would have otherwise lost if I passed the turn.\n\nThe deck revolves around continuously saccing an undying creature.
