If you had asked me to make a demon EDH a few years ago, I'd tell you it's a weak tribe overall. Older demons' drawbacks were a nuisance and far outweighed their value. However, in recent years with Zendikar, Innistrad and Ravnica, demons have been given stronger card value. With that said, I think this deck does really well in 1v1 and multiplayer alike.

This deck offers a suite of tutor effects, some good token production for sacrifice purposes and enough instances of life gain to offset any of the pesky life-loss demons. I tried focusing on sacrifice effects as well to get around some of those pesky shrouded and/or indestrucibles you may come across. All in all, I really like how this deck plays, so go get your demON!
