@Cyber Locc Thanks for testing it out! Keep in mind that Act of Treason untaps the creature, so Blind Obedience doesn't exactly counter it.
I'll consider adding another sac outlet, though, they are pretty critical.

It does it untaps it if it was tapped for me but once it comes into your control it is re tapped. As it enters your control its tapped that's after Act of Treason has already resolved. Your confusing the cards ability.

Ah, but the creature is already on the battlefield--it just changed controllers!
Let's let the experts decide.

Yes to that your right its already on the battlefield so not tapped by blind obedience a replay is in order

Okay so with blind obedience not tapping thus use of the acts and ect it was a totally different game this time you had cauldron and were saccing my creatures off. I won again only because of Fiendslayer Paladin
and Sanguine Bond
you took and sacced an angel and blood baron. And of course im sure you have sideboard cards to help with decks like this as I have for ones like yours but main against main I won on turn 19 it was a long game lol

LOL, nice! yeah, I would have to rely on Barrage of Expendables with Festering Newt to take out the paladin. Enchantments are going to be a real problem since Rakdos can't do crap against them, save for Ratchet Bomb !

Yes and you did have them both at different times sadly I ultimate priced newt a turn before the barrage came out :( but good deck its the first one thus far to give me this much trouble +1 for that lol.

A matter of fact I would like to do a turn by turn, 3 game play test, and feature it on my decks description would that be okay with you?

Blood Thief I have taken it to fmn but made a lot of changes since then. Since the changes its been pretty op. Tomorrow its first FNM and I cant wait.

Its also post rotation but I'm playing it now anyway lol.

There, tweaked this deck to even out the mana curve a bit, added some more two-drops. Should be a little more resilient.
August 15, 2013 4:52 p.m.
Also, with Traitorous Instinct and Act of Treason , those creatures targeted by them do no Re-Enter the battlefield, you just gain control of them so ETB abilities are not triggered nor anything like Blind Obedience , if I am not mistaken, I am gonna look up the rules here in a minute.
August 15, 2013 6:49 p.m.
Yeah I was right, so when you take control of something from your opponent and they have Blind Obedience its ability doesn't effect the creature you took from them.
August 15, 2013 6:52 p.m.
Looks good bud. I like the theme here lol will you check out my deck and give me suggestions plz. Snipers under fire. And Forest of Doom1 thanks a lot man hit me up and I'll try to help out if I can

How does this fair against other decks? Like control? aggro? etc..
I made one similar to this just threw in Master of Cruelties for whatever reason I was running out of steam about turn 5 then it was all over from there. I had the worst luck against control decks..

I really, really liked this idea and worked around something like this @ the gameday booster draft, liked it so much I built a deck around it which I hope you can look at.
I know this is post-rotation but I couln't help throwing some good standard stuff before it rotates.
Check it out @ Salamander Stew!
August 18, 2013 12:11 a.m.
this looks like a blast to play! I made a similar deck with cards i had laying around.. check it out:Act of Treason

He's there for a mana dump that makes 1/1 attackers more threatening..but I may replace him with something beefier.
Cyber Locc says... #1
I would add more sac outlets to the deck if it were me I see your purpose of take and sac but that doesn't work if you don't get in an outlet which in the 2 games we played you got blood bairn once I Ultimate Price d it and you got Barrage of Expendables but it was to late to help
