Exploit the Sacrifice mechanism.The balance of creatures that get sacrificed (Skeletons, Bloodghasts), creatures/cards to which things can be sacrificed (Altar, vampires, bone splinters) and things that profit (Mortician, Pawn, Blade) is tricky. Because of the low number of creatures that stay in play for a long time, I've opted to turn two Blades of the Bloodchief into Swords of Vengeance. I could see going the rest of the way - thoughts?Also, Disentomb/Gravedigger? Maybe even a Rise from the Grave in the sideboard?
