---

An aggressive deck that relies on either sacrificing creatures or Animate Dead to deploy high-cost Demons.

For early game, the Typhoid Rats to act as both defense and sacrifice fodder for Demon of Death's Gate ; if the opening hand yields a Demon of Death's Gate along with Dark Ritual and Buried Alive, then you can throw the Bloodghast's into the grave to assist in generating creatures to sacrifice. When using Buried Alive, it's best to also send Griselbrand to the grave, so he can later be animated by Animate Dead.

The Dark Ritual's and Culling the Weak's are important for early Buried Alive and Animate Dead, but they also hasten the process of dropping Necropolis Regent's. If they don't deal with her immediately, she will quickly win the game--either by herself or indirectly through the other demons.

The Lightning Greaves were included for obvious reasons: getting that immediate attack off with hard-hitters can be brutal, and shroud is essential for preventing target-based creature removal. Basilisk Collar's were thrown in for Lifelink, to help mitigate the cost of casting Demon's for health--which I want to maintain, because it becomes a draw engine with Griselbrand's ability.
