just think about those Gather the Townsfolk... also, how much do you use Vault of the Archangel?

Elspeth Tirel would be pretty fun, you could try with her, plus her ultimate can devastate your opponent. She's a fun girl. +1

Try Mortarpod and Tragic Slip your sacking creature and doing damage also you are getting a -13/-13 kill spell

I have not had a chance to try it at a FNM yet. If you do please let me know and I'll put it in the update. I've only played casually in multiplayer and it decimates.

Just went 4-0 at my local game store undefeated! Crazy nobody had an answer to it. I played it with Demons, removal, sacrifice, Tragic Slip etc. No one card combo spoke loudest but I did love the early game cards.

Just went 4-0 at lunch today against the guys at work in multiplayer. It's pretty crazy how well this deck works. The trick is to know when to sac 'em.

I've built a similar deck called Kill all the humans... even your own.
I think this is a very cool deck, but i sort of wondered whether it might not be better without could be taken of for some more Increasing Devotion. It just feels dangerous and also dies to removal. I like your deck though so +1 for the idea.

I made a deck similar to this one. Here is link http://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/the-power/ I am still making changes as I play with it and its only based off of cards I currently own.
I found that Sun Titan can be very useful in bringing back all of the lower cost cards in this deck. You may want to consider adding this card.
I noticed you added the Royal Assassins and Reaper from the Abyss cards since the last time I viewed this deck. How have these worked out?
I did notice that this deck needed some removal in addition to the 4xTragic Slip. I added Skirsdag Flayer but have found that it isn't working as well as I had hoped.

i've also found that Jar of Eyeballs is very effective for finding/drawing the cards that you need.

If you don't mind me asking, why Village Cannibals over Unruly Mob?
February 27, 2012 7:41 a.m.
habitualpuma says... #24
@nvergara45 I thought the same thing. But then I realized that they both have their advantages. Village Cannibals has potential to get counters when opponent's humans die. With Unruly Mob of course its only your creatures but they don't have to be human. With this deck being mostly human creatures that you would want to sacrifice I can see why Village Cannibals was chosen. I actually have both in my deck

Also Village Cannibals is less vulnerable when I'm not sacing or killing anything. I wouldn't have figured that one out if I hadn't played it.

@permhole96 you playtested this deck 100 times? That's more than I have.
I can't say I've been mana screwed with this deck much. 24 lands have been my golden number forever with few minor adjustments.
I think i will playtest some of your suggested creatures as it will be fun to mix it up. I didn't like Skirsdag Flayer or Doomed Traveler as they seemed kind of week. Also 4xGather the Townsfolk is replaced by 2x Lingering Souls
Thanks for your feedback. Please keep it coming.
