daring cradle
Hello, I'm looking for any suggestions of cards to add to this decklist. The general game plan is to use as many legendary Orzhov colored creatures I can to get both triggers off Ardbert. Or other cards that work with legendary creatures in general. I'm mostly concerned about lacking draw power and running out of gas.
If there is any other cards I really should consider, let me know!

[[Batwing brume]] seems like a strong card for Orzhov decks

Instant
Prevent all combat damage that would be dealt this turn if 
was spent to cast this spell. Each player loses 1 life for each attacking creature they control if 
was spent to cast this spell. (Do both if was spent.)
daring cradle
ooh, that does look quite good for protection!
solemn apex
You already have Inkshield, but that’s a really good card too
solemn apex
Both can fit in a deck
daring cradle
and indeed.
solemn apex
[[Morbid opportunist]] could help with draws

Oh right, I have a [[Shriveling rot]] quota I need to fulfill for the server

Choose one —
• Until end of turn, whenever a creature is dealt damage, destroy it.
• Until end of turn, whenever a creature dies, that creature's controller loses life equal to its toughness.
Entwine 
(Choose both if you pay the entwine cost.)

[[Hellish rebuke]] is a spite play most of the time but it can help

I do like the opprotunist. Shame it's not legendary. Creatures in the deck really strongly benefit from having the legendary tag.
Though, Shriveling rot I can see as being an extremely nasty response to a board wipe.
I put those 4 cards into the maybeboard.
solemn apex
I use it in [[Lord of pain]] for that purpose
ivory dockBOT
solemn apex
It’s won me games before
daring cradle
yeah, I'm thinking of putting it into the [[black waltz no. 3]] deck I am also tinkering with
ivory dockBOT
solemn apex
Also you could use “ring tempts you” cards to make things legendary
daring cradle
I could. But, as it stands, there is only one non legendary creature in the deck as is.
[[deathbringer liege]]
ivory dockBOT
solemn apex
So probably not worth it then
daring cradle
and it's effect is quite synergistic with the deck anyway
so, I could justify adding it
solemn apex
There’s also stuff like [[Came back wrong]]
ivory dockBOT
daring cradle
came back wrong seems more like a card that would love to be in a sac deck.
But, I'll have to keep that one in mind.
solemn apex
[[Ratadrabik of Urborg]] is pretty much the only card in the deck rn that actively works with it, but the card can let you take advantage of opponents etbs

Legendary Creature — Zombie Wizard
Vigilance, ward
Other Zombies you control have vigilance.
Whenever another legendary creature you control dies, create a token that's a copy of that creature, except it's not legendary and it's a 2/2 black Zombie in addition to its other colors and types.
3/3
solemn apex
I say “works with it” as if you want to use it on your own cards
Which uhhhh I don’t think you do
daring cradle
Yeah, not exactly what I'm looking for atm
However, if I do make a sac deck that gains benefits from sacrificing creatures, it would be a fantastic fit for that
solemn apex
[[Colonel Autumn]]
ivory dockBOT
daring cradle
well, that is a card that would potentially really allow things to snowball.
Would the trigger work for each legendary creature?
daring cradle
For example, if I have 4 legendary creatures on battlefield, I exploit a 5th one, would it give +4/+4 from the one sac'd creature?
daring cradle
Thought as such. Would have been too stronk otherwise
solemn apex
Absolute insanity there if it worked like that
daring cradle
right? Would have been an absolute chaos
solemn apex
Now [[Cathars crusade]] however…
ivory dockBOT
daring cradle
classic cathar's crusade.
Though, not sure how much I'd value it in this deck since the deck does not add a lot of tokens/bodies at once to really get the insane value it can produce.
whereas the batwing brume (if orzhov color mana spent) for 2 mana adds +2/+2 to everything for 2 mana along with ardbert's other effects
solemn apex
Honestly I’ve called it Catheters crusade before
Cause I absolutely hate seeing it
Not because it’s strong, it’s just time consuming to watch happen
daring cradle
Yeah... the constant counter adjustment
and the stupid amount of token boosting plays
solemn apex
Like it might be tolerable in arena cause a robot handles that
daring cradle
While ardbert is also doing a LOT of counters himself,
its only a maximum of +2 per spell.
not.... potentially +10 whatever from one thing
from [[entreat the angels]] or something
ivory dockBOT
Sorcery
Create X 4/4 white Angel creature tokens with flying.
Miracle 
(You may cast this card for its miracle cost when you draw it if it's the first card you drew this turn.)
daring cradle
or whatever token creature combo they do that makes a ton of tokens.

Legendary Creature — Human Knight
Vigilance
, 
: Create a 2/2 white Knight creature token with vigilance.
, , Tap X untapped Knights you control: Destroy target creature with power X or less.
4/4
