Possibly decadence ramp? Possibly graveyard recursion?

One of the ten colour-pair archetypes.

One natural possibility is that decadence is quite a mana-hungry mechanic, and so pairing it with green ramp effects would be natural.

Another option is raised by the observation that Code Geass has a fair amount of characters who die then turn out not to be dead. Green-black is more traditionally the reanimation colour, but the flavour in CG isn't Zombify or Rise from the Grave but rather Miraculous Recovery (which I'm thinking of reprinting here). Even though (((C. C.))) comes across like a Reassembling Skeleton, it's flavoured more like troll-style regeneration. So maybe {g/w} can be the graveyard pair in this set?

Cards that work particularly well in this archetype:

Decadence Ramp

Common: Custodians of Nippon, Positional Gambit, Elder Surveyor, Desert Scout, Supply Drop, plus common decadence cards Benevolent Landowner, Smug Cavalier

Uncommon: Palace Gardener, Natural Energy

Rare: Kusakabe, Liberationist Zealot

Graveyard:

Common: Enduring Custodians

Uncommon: Miraculous Recovery, C.C., Impulsive Witch, Geass to Live?
