The deck is intended to work specifically against indestructible white avacyns and darksteel forges and shit like that. You have to sacrifice it, boo hoo. It's a pretty slow mid-range deck that sets up a board in mid-game in a turn or two, and rolls over the opponents. If you wanna be specifically gay, you can drop the inficombo Tri+Micky and you say "I won." - lots of tutors for that. Pretty fun other semi\infinite combos in the deck, pretty fun to play!

Ofcourse, c\c is welcome

Important shit, and how this rolls:

Rooftop Storm = This counts for Thraximundar, you only pay his additional cast cost.Gravecrawler is free from your graveyard = free anything when you sac him.

It That Betrays + Killing Wave = Pay X life for the board, thank you very much

Hex Parasite + Decree of Silence = Lock the game, if you have Black Market, even better, since you save all your mana for the parasite. It also clears the board of planeswalkers.

Bojuka Bog + Izzet Boilerworks/Rakdos Carnarium/Dimir Aqueduct = Graveyard hate

Nim Deathmantle + Maalfeld Twins = With Ashnod's Altar is infinite zombies per turn

Mikaeus, the Unhallowed -- THE PLAYMAKER combined with:

• Triskelion = Hit player for 1, Hit Triskelion for 2, Triskelion returns with 4, rinse, repeat, win.

• Cauldron of Souls = In combination with a sac outlet, these cards provide free zombies and mana. If you choose to play Deadapult or Grimgrin, Corpse-Born you can swing for a chunk of damage, since +1/+1 and -1/-1 counters null each other out and get removed. A better option is Goblin Bombardment in my opinion.

• Maalfeld Twins + Gravespawn Sovereign = Provides infinite zombies/mana depending on your sac outlet, and brings any graveyard under your control.

I'll slowly be editing this with information as i play the deck.
