---

A deck commanded by Mogis, God of Slaughter. A punishing group slug deck based around forcing really unpleasant decisions.

Hate having long-running games with lots of players? Throw this one deck and make the game a lot faster! Every single thing other players do will get them to get hurt. Playing lands? Zo-Zu the Punisher will punish you for that. Tapping those lands for mana? Manabarbs will punish you for that. Activating an ability? Harsh Mentor will punish you for that. Drawing cards? Spiteful Visions will punish you for that. There's Furnace of Rath, Dictate of the Twin Gods, and Gratuitous Violence. With one of these out the game gets very very scary. Wound Reflection also acts as a damage doubler too, essentially. You're going to get a LOT of hate for this deck, so prepare to hide behind Kazuul, Tyrant of the Cliffs, Silent Arbiter.

I love providing awful choices between two really awful outcomes. Sin Prodder, Indulgent Tormentor, Coercive Portal and even Mogis himself make people choose between the lesser of two evils. But ultimately it all leads to death.

Wincons are constant damage effects, with occasional combo win with Bloodchief Ascension and Mindcrank.
