Want to update this deck to include cards from RIX and Dominaria. Suggestions? Phyrexian Scriptures perhaps?
My last mashup, Stockpile Monument - this deck is crazy, worked really well, so I'm trying again.With this new mashup, we get cool things like 2x 4/4 Marionette Masters with a side of 12 servo tokens for instant death.
This deck is all about sacrificing, scrying, and gaining a ton of life with multiple Anointer Priest, and then winning off a ton of tokens.
This deck is all about drawing and discarding a ton of creatures in the grave, then reanimating them over and over until they die.
The Mashup
Our 4 value cards all work together to create interesting game possiblities:
Cross-Synergy 1: Stockpile + Gate
In place of the normal Gift-deck's blue cards to fill the grave, we have the Stockpile Gate combo of sacrificing (e.g.) a 0/1 Weaponcraft Enthusiast, getting both a scry and a loot, gaining life, filling the graveyard, and generating a servo. We match this up with B/W cards that net us value even when they die for a solid plan.
Yahenni, Undying Partisan is your backup sac-outlet. She's great all-around. On defense, you can chump with her and sac fodder, and only lose the sac fodder. If you somehow have a bunch of creatures on board and a gate, you can probably surprise them with Yahenni, sac a lot and flip Gate out of nowhere.
Cross-Synergy 2: Gift + Procession
Instead of getting 1 creature from your Gift, you get 2 at once. Only 1 gets haste, but the value is huge. Of course, get 2 gifts or 2 processions and you'll get 4 tokens in one shot.
Cross-Synergy 3: Stockpile + Gift
If you can gift yourself a Marionette Master, Stockpile will be on-hand to sacrifice your servos or any other artifacts to drain the life out of your opponent. If you need a large hasty creature, you can cast a small one, sac it, Gift it and swing.
Demonstration Game
T1 Sacred Cat
T2 Anointer Priest
T3 Weaponcraft (2 servos)
T4 Gate. Chump block with any of the above as needed.
T5 Yahenni. Sac the first 3 creatures. Loot 3x, discarding 3 creatures from your hand. Gate into a Gift.
Reanimate Marionette Master. Generate 3 more servos. Sac all 5 servos to Yahenni to deal 20 from the 4/4 Marionette Master.
That would be a nut-draw. The normal draw produces a ton of game-stalling, scrying, drawing, looting, generating tokens, and then eventually winning off of Gift tokens and/or Master life drain. Or failing that, tons of creatures/lifegain with Anointed Procession/Anointer Priest, and swing on a mass-pump effect. In other words, every game is different.
The deck is also a really good Dusk or Fumigate deck. All the creatures come back from Dawn, and having stuff in the grave is great fun for Gift, Yahenni can live through it all anyway.
