"The first card you're going to want to throw in here is Exquisite Blood. Venser's Journal is ridiculous with Well of Lost Dreams. I think Oloro is pretty straightforward (if a little expensive) to upgrade. You want a good amount of Esper control cards like Supreme Verdict, Mortify, Render Silent, Detention Sphere, etc. You're going to want some Extort cards like Blind Obedience. You might want to include some heavy-hitting lifelinkers to compliment Divinity of Pride like Blood Baron of Vizkopa, Baneslayer Angel, Batterskull, and Archangel of Thune. Erebos is a beast in this deck. Ditto Bloodchief Ascension, which should be super easy to turn on. Honestly, a lot of people are making this a very grindy, pillowfort deck, and I don't even think that's necessary. You can be pretty aggressive here and constantly swing life totals. The constant life gain/drain can really ramp up and get out of hand. Oh, and I heard that Daxos of Meletis guy can be pretty good. Ditto Drogskol Reaver."

Throw in Serra Ascendant. My friend put it in Evasive Maneuvers. He was gaining life 6 per turn and it was a pain to deal with. I imagine it would be even more effective in Eternal Bargain.
[–]thenewdumbNekusar 2 points 10 days ago
Definitely. He's in my deck. There are a handful of cards I didn't mention that people will want to run. The Ascendant is one. Rune-tail, Kitsune Ascendant is another. I was just rattling off some quick thoughts based on my build. Some stuff like Necropotence practically goes without saying.
"Cards to cut:
Transguild Promenade
Rupture Spire
Evolving Wilds or Esper Panorama
Reason: 41 lands is way too much. While the first two provide any color, they are horrible.
Diviner Spirit
Hooded Horror
Kongming
Marrow Bats
The blue and the black curse.
Reason: most of these don't belong here, especially Kongming.
Kongming is the guy who made borrowing 100,000 arrows happen, yet two cards are not in the same deck."

I agree with all of these - most of them were the first to go for me. Not only does the deck come with 41 lands, it also comes with Pristine Talisman, Obelisk of Esper, and Sol Ring, so yeah, way too many mana sources. Side note: Pristine Talisman's interaction with Oloro is pretty great.
Here are a few more to cut and some budget suggestions for there slots.
Tower Gargoyle --> Sludge Strider
Raven Familiar --> Vampire Nighthawk
Sun Droplet --> Suture Priest/Soul Warden/Soul's Attendant
Azorius Herald --> Suture Priest/Soul Warden/Soul's Attendant
And after the above (plus Altasia's suggestions), if you want to cut more I'd go with these. Most of them are solid cards, but they just don't add a lot to the deck outside of being good cards.
Stormscape Battlemage
Myr Battlesphere
Diviner Spirit
Sharding Sphinx
Spinal Embrace
Finally, this deck can afford to run a handful of pain lands. If you have them (or don't mind spending a few dollars on them), I'd replace any of the taplands with Underground River, Adarkar Wastes, Caves of Koilos, and City of Brass.

Myr battlesphere is bananas though. I run a cut-throat Sharuum combo deck that needs to blast through tutors and has no protection outside of the resilience given by Esper colors and Shazoom herself and I still run battlesphere. Being out of options and clocking someone for 12 is so good.
Budget suggestions:
In:
Words of Worship
Faith Fetters
Delaying Shield
Day of Judgement
Rhystic Study
Ghostly Prison
Bond of Agony
Diabolic Tutor
Exquisite Blood
Pontiff of Blight
Blind Obedience
Crypt Ghast
Angelic Accord
Riot Control
Gray Merchant of Asphodel
Thrull Parasite
Debt to the Deathless
Killing Wave
Out:
2 Swamp
Plains
Island
Sharuum the Hegemon
Thopter Foundry
Curse of Shallow Graves
Curse of Inertia
Sydri, Galvanic Genius
Sharding Sphinx
Tower Gargoyle
Azorius Herald
Disciple of Griselbrand
Kongming, "Sleeping Dragon"
Filigree Angel
Myr Battlesphere
Hooded Horror
Razor Hippogriff
More suggestions from reddit:
Eternal Bargain? Oloro just took over my floor. This is what I know for sure:
All of the good mana rocks.
Serra Ascendant, Baneslayer Angel, Minion of the Wastes, Hatred, Archangel of Thune, Drogskol Reaver, Humility, Debtors' Knell, Academy Rector, Demonic Tutor, Vampiric Tutor, Enlightened Tutor, Umezawa's Jitte, Stoneforge Mystic, and Batterskull.
Consider adding cards using phyrexian mana, and extort
jace's ingenuity instead of brilliant plan
wrath of god taken from naya deck
