The deck is based on sacrifice and reanimate. This is the first commander deck I've build and it's one of my favorite to play. There is enough (but not too much) Tutor in this deck so I praticaly always have the cards I want/need in play or in hands.

I'm not really good with English, so I'll go straight to the point and forgive me for any misspelling or syntax error ;)

If i'm lucky (I love when I have thoses cards in my openning hand), Entomb + Reanimate = turn two It That Betrays in play and you've just ruined some friendship... And if I'm even more lucky and also draw a Dark Ritual I'm happier to hard cast It That Betrays turn 1 with Reanimate or Animate Dead

Bassicaly, It That Betrays combo with anyone of these cards:
- It That Betrays + Sheoldred, Whispering One
- It That Betrays + Smokestack
- It That Betrays + Nefarox, Overlord of Grixis
- It That Betrays + Ob Nixilis, Unshackled
- It That Betrays + Pathrazer of Ulamog
- It That Betrays + Phyrexian Obliterator
- Grave Pact + It That Betrays

Sacrifice engine for my own permanents:
- Smokestack
- Reaper from the Abyss
- Soldevi Adnate
- Sacrifice
- Phyrexian Tower
- Miren, the Moaning Well
- High Market
- Ophiomancer + Skullclamp
- Helm of Possession
- Ashnod's Altar
- Culling the Weak
- Diabolic Intent
- Profane Command -X/-X on one of my creature
- Victimize
- Attrition
- Contamination

Reanimation Cards:
- Sheoldred, Whispering One
- Coffin Queen
- Doomed Necromancer
- Liliana Vess I mostly use her to Tutor, so I never used her ultimate.
- Profane Command
- Reanimate
- Rise of the Dark Realms
- Stitch Together
- Victimize
- Animate Dead
- Necromancy

Any card that make me sacrifice my own permanent help me to reanimate them for ETB of cards like:
- Grave Titan
- Gray Merchant of Asphodel
- Kokusho, the Evening Star
- Puppeteer Clique
- Rune-Scarred Demon
- Solemn Simulacrum
- Xiahou Dun, the One-Eyed

Tutors:
- Rune-Scarred Demon My favorite tutor of this deck since I can reanimate and tutor at each of my upkeep when Sheoldred, Whispering One is on the battlefield.
- Liliana of the Dark Realms for Swamp
- Liliana Vess
- Entomb
- Vampiric Tutor
- Buried Alive- Demonic Tutor
- Diabolic Intent

Any type of mana accelaration/producer:
- Bog Witch
- Crypt Ghast
- Soldevi Adnate
- Solemn Simulacrum
- Liliana of the Dark Realms
- Ashnod's Altar
- Lotus Bloom
- Sol Ring
- Cabal Coffers + Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth
- Crucible of Worlds + Lake of the Dead
- Culling the Weak
- Dark Ritual
- Bubbling Muck

Ophiomancer is a usefull card for some combo and when I don't want to sacrifice a important permanent but I need to sacrifice something to use some other cards:
- Contamination + Ophiomancer
- Ophiomancer + Skullclamp
- Attrition + Ophiomancer
- Ophiomancer + Smokestack
- Helm of Possession + Ophiomancer
- Diabolic Intent + Ophiomancer
- Culling the Weak + Ophiomancer And with any other cards the require to sacrifice a creature.

There is alot of synergy so it would be hard/long (with my limited English) to explain most of interaction/combo between each cards, but I think you can all figure it out with ;)

Any constructive comments and Vote is wellcome.
