Ours is the blood that feeds the machine.

Summary:

The idea for this deck is to use the incremental advantage Zulaport Cutthroat gives you from the deaths of your creatures in combination with sacrifice enablers to kill your opponent.

Creatures:

Every creature in this deck has synergy with sacrifice whether its lifedrain, card draw, resurrection or pump they all contribute to the overall game plan. Bloodsoaked Champion is the first of the creatures offering an aggressive start as well as the benefit of resurrection in his raid ability. Zulaport Cutthroat is one of the win conditions it enables the weenies to do incremental damage upon death as well as gain life. Sultai Emissary is a 3/3 draw a card across two bodies which makes it more valuable then other options like Carrier Thrall. Flamewake Phoenix is an evasive aggressive flier with the upside of being resurrected if a four power or greater creature is on board. Nantuko Husk is the most efficient sacrifice outlet in standard at the moment allowing to sac multiple targets thereby triggering combos and pumping the husk. The big guys in the deck are Butcher of the Horde and Brutal Hordechief both serve different purposes for the deck Butcher offers evasive beatdown while the Hordechief is an additional means to incremental lifedrain. Lastly for creatures we have Liliana, Heretical Healer  , who acts as an alternative means of resurrection and a removal magnet.

Non-Creatures:

For non-creatures I went for both Crackling Doom and Mardu Charm as it is valuable removal and burn. Vampiric Rites is nice since it give card draw with the added bonus of lifegain. As for finishers Sorin, Solemn Visitor and Rally the Ancestors allowing for a slow and steady approach with Sorin and a surprise burst finish with Rally.
