This deck abuses Shirei's revival ability by sacrificing everything (sometimes even the opponents creatures). It plays a little like solitaire between turns, so make sure your friends are tolerant of this before committing to this deck. As long as Shirei is alive, this deck dominates the game.

Generally you want to follow this strategy:

1.Ramp using artifacts, creatures, and other spells

2.Set up the battlefield with Sac Fodder and Sacrificers

3.Play Shirei (Might want to wait for a Protection card first)

4.Give your opponents no will to live as you basically play solitaire between every turn by sacrificing all your creatures (except Shirei) between every player's turn (especially effective in multiplayer games)

This allows you to get a lot of card advantage through drawing and making your opponent discard. Try using combos like [Zulaport Cutthroat + Sling-Gang Lieutenant] to maximize damage and life gain. If you get a [Bottle Gnomes] or other life gain sac outlet, you can usually finish the game with 100+ life .
