Westvale Abbey  Flip would be a perfect win con in this deck

I was actually JUST thinking the same thing. I have one already, but I immediately slapped it in my token-centric EDH deck (Naya'll Feel Marath). I guess I'll sub it out and playtest it. Why not, eh?

Thanks for the help. =)

it is not a sac outlet but From Beyond I think would be useful because you make the sacrifice able tokens every turn that way and it gives you blockers.

Best name for an MTG deck ever, maybe put an Eliminate the Competition in place of a Bone Splinters or two

I love it! Really fun tech and theme. I'll try wrangle this together with what I have myself to try.

SibilantScribe: Thanks a lot! This deck could actually be a little better, so if you ever want to share some feedback once you do, that'd be awesome. Hope you enjoy!

Village Rites is a strictly better Altar's Reap . I recommend 4x Whisper Squad over Mardu Shadowspear as they can easily grab you additional sac fodder. Also, I think Bastion of Remembrance is a much better Syr Konrad, the Grim . For an aggressive deck, the mana curve matters and the additional token is helpful too. Finally, and your mileage may vary on this since it looks like you're trying to include mostly non-rares and not recent sets, Lurrus of the Dream-Den would be a very good card to include, probably over Blood for Bones . Good luck!

abby315: A bunch of great advice, thanks a lot! I like all your ideas and I'll try them out soon. I'm not trying to keep it nonrares or anything on purpose, so I'll consider anything. Thanks again!

Village Rites > Altar's Reap

Eaten Alive > Spark Harvest/Bone Splinters

Konrad seems too slow and doesn't have much impact for a 5 drop.

One thing you badly need here is an instant-speed reusable sac outlet. which can be used to sac your tap creatures for untapped tokens to surprise block, or just sac anything that is targeted with exile removal, or get instant speed card draw/drain. The only good one in pioneer thats a human is Cartel Aristocrat, and it might be worth splashing white just for that. White would also let you run Cruel Celebrant (not a vampire unfortunately), and maybe Return to the Ranks.

zapyourtumor: Good advice, thanks. I already took some of it. Despite AFR being an actually good set, I didn't buy much, so I'm using Spark Harvest for now. I may end up sticking with it instead of Eaten Alive though, because as a last resort Spark Harvest does allow me to kill (rather than exile) my own creatures, triggering both Jason Mamoa and Karl Urban.

As for splashing white... ugh, lol. No offense, it's a good idea, but I'm going to try real hard not to for a while before I give in and do that. XD
