This deck aims to do two things.

1. Prevent itself from dying by combining Melira, The Living Cure/Sylvok Outcast/Solemnity with Phyrexian Unlife, making it impossible for you to die from a life total of 0 or less.

2. Win using loops involving sac outlets that either use Core Prowler to infinitely proliferate poison counters created by Infectious Bite or Decimator Web, or combine Melira, Sylvok Outcast with Kitchen Finks/Cauldron of Souls and a value piece to gain infinite life or draw infite cards or even loop fogs or value pieces. Our commander can be used as part of either the Phyrexian Unlife combo or to protect or faciliate our loops, and due to its low cost, we can afford to use its exile ability multiple times throughout a game, which can be made cheaper by Myth Unbound.

To help us find our phyrexian unlife, we have Moon-Blessed Cleric, Idyllic Tutor and Sterling Grove, along with effects like Ao, The Dawn Sky and card draw loops. Otherwise our commander, combined with a large number of sac outlets, creatures that sac themselves, and creatures/effects that recur should enable us to loop for value and protection while bringing us closer to our wincons.

While we're doing this, to help protect our board we have Sigarda, Font of Blessings, Heroic Intervention, our commander, and heaps of recursion pieces that also function as part of our loops including Saffi Eriksdotter, Reveillark, Karmic Guide, Renegade Rallier etc.

This deck is very much an experiment and will require some work, but I'm pretty happy with where it sits so far.
