📖 How to build Ob Nixilis, the Fallen

Ob Nixilis, the Fallen turns every land drop into a threat. Whenever a land enters under your control, you may have target player lose 3 life, and if you do, he gets three +1/+1 counters. Each land you play drains an opponent and makes him much bigger, so the game plan is to land him and keep making land drops
