Advice on card draw in Orzhov? - tchncs

Hello all, I’m a noob to magic building my first deck. I’ve been trying out this flicker deck with [[Syr Vondam, Sunstar Exemplar]] and I’m having okay results. It seems like I never draw my necessary cards to close the game out because I end up with no hand and am living paycheck to paycheck on my draw step. So I end up having an exile engine with nothing else, making it a real boring game for my friend and me. I think my deck is capable of playing both flicker and mini-Voltron with Syr Vondam at the helm, but I’m not sure what to start. Maybe I share the hate and just keep spam blinking [[Corrupt Court Official]]. Here’s my decklist [https://moxfield.com/decks/bJ8uePx-00-6pPshCAtonQ]

With your focus on blink, a few creatures that draw a card when entering could be worthwhile.

But don’t forget that Syr Vondam triggers when your creatures die, as well. Black has plenty of cards that let you draw cards by sacrificing creatures. Even if you don’t normally want to kill your own creatures as often as an aristocrats deck, instant-speed options like [[Deadly Dispute]] or [[Reckoner’s Bargain]] can let you get some cards back in response to being targeted with removal, or just let you dump a creature you don’t really need for a chance to dig deeper into your deck.

On the other side of black’s card draw, [[Sign in Blood]], [[Night’s Whisper]], and [[Phyrexian Arena]] are decent options to pay life to draw cards.

Oh, almost forgot to mention one of my pet cards, [[Dark Prophecy]]. It makes you extremely resilient to removal and your commander will offset the life loss if he’s out.
