Liesa has gone back to her old ways making deals with demons!

• 25 Shadowborn Apostles ready to sacrifice themselves to her cause

• 5 demons ready to be tutored & a Skirsdag High Priest for extra demon flavored fun, go for Rune-Scarred Demon first if you need a combo piece or Sower of Discord for pain, Harvester of Souls for 6 extra cards each Sac run

• Gravepact & Dictate of Erebos will help keep your opponents boards clear for you

• Meathook Massacre, Zulaport Cutthroat, & Blood Artist will drain down everyone while you do your bloodmagic

• Liesa & Athreos will bring all your loyal disciples back from the grave

• Echoing Return & Immortal Servitude for backup recursion, Malakir Rebirth and Sejiri Shelter for some MDC mini combat tricks

• 11x card draw options

• 3x Tutors for grabbing your pieces: Edge Walker, Athreos, Remembrance, Thrumming Stone, Dictate/Grave Pact, Coffers/Urborg

• 2x single target removals and 1x board wipe, try to save them for non-creature unless someone is being a bit too pesky

• 1x Mana Tithe, because its hilarious to counter your opponents big flashy spells with a Tithe also an Imp's Mischief for slight flavor and protection

• 3x Sac Outlets, no strong support for those they are back ups for card draw/double black mana ramp

• Remember to get your Thought Vessel or Reliquary Tower out sooner than later, Liesa sending 6 Apostles to your hand every turn will generally force you to discard

The wincon is to drain your opponents down 6, 12, or 18 (if you're lucky) life each time you sacrifice your Apostles, or if you're even luckier nabbing a win with Liliana's Contract. Remember to always target your opponent with the lowest life for the Athreos triggers.
