Oloro, Life & Death Duplicated from Edlimir

Summary

This Oloro Esper lifegain midrangecontrol deck is highly cohesive and packs real, compact win lines (notably Exquisite Blood loops and Heliod + Walking Ballista) backed by premium engines (Necropotence, Rhystic Study, The One Ring). However, in Bracket 4, it is meaningfully behind the expected pace because the list is underramped and tutorlight, and it runs minimal stack interaction—so it often wins a turncycle late or fails to stop faster combo tables without drawing a stax piece early.
