The intention here is to make your opponents afraid to kill your creatures. And then you kill your creatures. XD

• -drops, like Bloodsoaked Champion, Mardu Shadowspear and Ruthless Ripper, are all here to be pumped out and used quickly, with very little demand on mana when recasting later on. I play with what I got, but eventually I'm looking to go full four-of with the Bloodsoaked Champion and Ruthless Ripper.
• Dutiful Attendant, as well as Blood for Bones and Memorial to Folly, are here to get things back after I "use" them.
• The main point of this deck is to trigger Grim Haruspex, Zulaport Cutthroat and Xathrid Necromancer a lot, squeezing extra value out of your stuff dying. Note that every one of the creature spells are hummans, and so they will all trigger Xathrid Necromancer and of course, Grim Haruspex, but none of the tokens made by this deck will. Zulaport Cutthroat will trigger from ALL your creature-deaths, including tokens.
• Infernal Scarring makes my 2/1 chumps even more threatening, and even more valuable upon death by drawing me a card.
• Speaking of drawing cards, a decent amount of the sac-outlets in this deck are actually draw spells, such as Altar's Reap and Bankrupt in Blood. And don't forget Grim Haruspex.
• Other sac-outlets include the aforementioned Blood for Bones, which can get a couple creatures back from the graveyard, as well as Bone Splinters for removal. Then there's also a couple copies of Torgaar, Famine Incarnate, whose big body should prove useful for a mere most of the time.
