Had this Abzan deck for a while and upgraded it with a few cards from the new set. What do you think? It's built around the idea of sacrificing smaller creatures for a better board state, and making my larger creatures more challenging to remove because they incur consequences.

Gideon is in here just because I got him from a booster box and like his abilities, he can churn out tokens, tick up my creatures, or lead an assault. All good options in my opinion.

Made some further improvements by taking a kheru dreadmaw's and Grim Haruspex and sideboarding them to add in kalastria Healers and Zulaport Cutthroats. An Endless one and a mage ring network are now in too. Allowing for mana saving, and damage when creatures die (i.e Scions) the endless one can be played in a pinch early game to help block aggro or be thrown in as a huge creature pumped up by the mage ring. Drana adds flavour, danger, counters and aggro to the deck. The average mana cost is now 1.87 in a deck that can efficiently pump out big heavy creatures and tokens, whilst using the ally mechanic to burn my opponent. Sacrifice still enables great advantages too, all in all this is a great fun deck to play.

Seems pretty cool, I haven't played anything like this, but I am working on some sort of ally deck that uses similar combos. I think it really needs a Nantuko Husk or 2.

Thanks Slowgod I was looking at Nantuko Husk and Voracious Null but i'm not sure what i'd take out for them. Might sideboard them in.
