A very solid deck that has won some tournaments already. The big advantage over older tortured existence decks is the sylvan library. It combo's very well with the dredge ability. You can dredge a card and still draw your one card every turn! Recurring spore frogs are a bane to any creature based decks while the lifegain beats burn quite well. combo decks are currently the deck's biggest problem. The deck listed is a rough sketch which showcases the basic idea. The original tournament winning deck might differ a tiny bit.

Since the deck is a little slow, the sideboard is constructed to improve against fast decks. 4x duress vs. combo and a lot of lifegain vs. red decks. The crypt is there for mirror matches, reanimate decks and threshold/madness decks.
