Sideboard


This is an aggressive TortEx list that's built to kill by burning Food! Bartered Cow is the deck's primary source of Food; you can loop two of them with Tortured Existence to make a Food token for every black mana you spend. Then if you have a Carrion Feeder in play and a Cauldron Familiar in the graveyard, you can play and sac the cat to drain your opponent and pump the zombie by however much black mana you have every turn! This combo is somewhat reminiscent of the Carrion Feeder + Gravecrawler combo in other formats, except it works at instant speed and gets around fog effects (take that, Tron).

The red discard spells (Faithless Looting, Thrill of Possibility, Lightning Axe) work well with Bartered Cow and help you discard Dredgers early. Dredging fast is important here since you want to establish the Cat-Cow combo as fast as you can to start burning people with your Food!
