This is a fun mardu deck with many wincons based around sacrificing your 1 CMC creatures/tokens or your opponents threats. Sometimes your opponents creature is your creature So lets run through the cards one by one. Sorry for my bad English, I havent used it for a while. So!
CREATURES:
Bloodsoaked Champion : He is a great 2/1 guy with 1 CMC. He is a human, later Im going to explain why its important. His raid ability gives you card advantage in mid and late game.
Doomed Traveler: A 1 CMC guy again. If he dies a 1/1 flying spirit appears on the board. If you loose or sac him you wont loose anything. On the contrary! Where I come from its called a great deal. And he is a human as well.
Young Pyromancer: An other human. A 2/1 creature for 2 CMC is not the best buy but he will generate you a lot of tokens because there are 15 cards in the deck triggering him. Elemental tokens will be good for attacking and sacrificing as well.
Nantuko Husk: A need one in a sacrifice deck. This zombie is a bit too slow but it does his job quite well.
Abyssal Persecutor: What is he doing here? Yep, Im not sure he fits the conception but I put in one for the following reasons. He is a 6/6 flying, trample for 4 CMC, a potential threat anytime. The "you cant win the game" part of his ability is not a problem. You can sac him or just destroy him when you are ready. There are 14 cards in the deck for this job.
Falkenrath Aristocrat: She is a 4/1 flyer with haste and indestructible if you sacrifice something. And what to sac on her ability? And this is why humans are great in this deck. They give +1/+1 counters for this lovely vampire ( Bloodsoaked Champion can do this more than once).
Butcher of the Horde: A badass demon which gives you flexibility and options. A 5/4 flyer for 4 mana is a good business. And if you take into consideration that this creature can gain life or can be a big blocker with vigilance or attack immediately in the air you realize his is not the card you want to face as an enemy. He will be one of your best friends on your side.
INSTANTS:
I would not like to run through one by one. They are all removal spell: I know that Path to Exile is missing from the list but I dont have it right now. Lightning Bolt and Lightning Helix are versatile cards. Terminate and Go for the Throat is always a solution to your problems.
Crackling Doom
is a great card, but you feel its power when you play multiplayer games.
SORCERIES:
Lingering Souls: the guy who introduced me this game said that if I had black and white in my deck this card was a need one. Wish I would have not forgot its flashback ability all the time. Act of Treason: personally one of my favorite cards. I just love to see my opponents face when I steal their wincon creature and after a big swing I sacrifice it to gain advantage. If Grave Pact is on the field they loose at least two creatures. Trollolo :)
ENCHANTMENTS:
I wont tell anything about Grave Pact simply because I dont need to. But the other card is very underestimated. This cards is
Mardu Ascendancy
.
This cards is triggered by all your attackers one by one. So if you attack with 3 creature you will have 3 goblins immediately attacking you opponent. Ok but you have a zombie, a demon and a vampire attacking and they are waiting their abilities get triggered. Its great, isnt it? And dont forget the bottom two rows on the card. Sac you enchantment and your creatures get +0/+3. Simply brilliant!
SIDEBOARD:
Duress: use it if you meet control or discard decks
Erase
: an instant enchantment killer. Every god is an enchantment as well ;)
Crackling Doom
: +1 for multiplayer. We play it a lot with my friends.
Mogis, God of Slaughter: for multiplayer as well
Mardu Charm
: a great utility card, and answer for a lot of things
Oblivion Ring: if something appears on the board that the others cannot handle, for example an emblem, or an indestructible artifact/enchantment
Read the Bones: card advantage
Mob Rule: just for fun. It can be a cruel finisher.
Disenchant: as for the card text
I took into consideration Blood Artist but thats not my style. However Zulaport Cutthroat and Hangarback Walker is still under consideration.
Any suggestion would be highly appreciated. Thanks for your time!
