I wasn't sure what direction I wanted to go with Obzedat, but ultimately I settled on a theme of discard and targeted removal, and to a lesser extent, reanimation. I started with a list of 250 or so cards and slowly culled the list to what's below.
My playgroup generally has 4-5 players to a game, but I think this deck would do well heads up. I didn't build this to be a budget deck, but it was fairly inexpensive to put together. If you have any recommendations on cards that would be upgrades over what I have, or would fit the theme well, chime in.
