You shouldn't kill your own guys because they are nice people (just kidding).

KILL YOUR OWN CREATURES BRO! they deserved to die anyway.

When i playtested it i unfortunately noticed a lack of ways to destroy your creatures. it can get a little tricky to balance the amount of kill abilities and also the amount of actual kill power.

Another thing that i noticed was the non-creature curve seemed a little bit high, but otherwise it looks great

Please enjoy sadistic creature suicide +1

lol Thanks for the comment :-D.

Just put this together because I liked Deathgreeter ability.

thanks for the +1 been changing it a lot trying to get a nice engine going.

Will have a look at the non-creature curve and see if I can adjust it.

mainly use Death Cultist and Doomed Traveler as blockers.

Sacrificing Death Cultist after declaring blockers.

for other ways to kill them off.

Honestly you could do it however you want, but i would suggest maybe adding 1 or 2 super cheap cards just as a backup such as Desecration Demon or Griselbrand just to beat the crap out of your opponent if you need it.

I particularly think that Griselbrand would be a good idea because with cards like Blood Artist and Deathgreeter you can easily use griselbrand's ability without any real pain to yourself, and if you have any cards in hand due to griselbrands ability, when you discard them you can bring them back with cards like Immortal Servitude .

One thing that might also fit your tastes are cards that's power and/or toughness equal to the number of creature cards in graveyards such as Mortivore

Griselbrand does look great not sure about Desecration Demon and Mortivore

pulls away from the token spam side of the deck and its humans.

Griselbrand does look like a solid add in to refresh my hand with low drop creature cards especially with Gravepurge .

Thanks for the suggestion.

I feel like this deck needs a sac outlet to get itself going...Viscera Seer instead of Death Cultist maybe?

Thanks jchudz for the comment have been considering Viscera Seer

as a nice cheap way to sacrifice also is 1 Mana.

Need to have a look and see if I can fit it in.

I'd try Grafted Wargear as a sac outlet. That way it's still pretty useful if you need it to be. Also, have you considered Bubbling Cauldron over a couple DeathGreeter? Sac outlet and a little bit more bang for buck in most situations.

Go for the Throat is probably better for removal so i would at least side board it

thanks Keegan8or think I will trade it out with Ultimate Price none of my mates really play artifact creatures.

Nice idea, I like it! +1 from me.

I would probably mainboard Grave Pact , very solid board control with how often you're going to kill your own creatures. Maybe you should look for a sac outlet?

Sanguine Bond might help you, with the life-gain you got going on. Just some ideas.

Hey there! Awesome deck idea, looks really fun. I'd suggest maybe 2 Grave Pact instead of the 2 Intangible Virtue or somewhere else, because with this combo, it would keep your enemies board clear. +1 from me

Thanks Yananas, BattleWalrus

Originally had Grave Pact in thinking of putting it back in its a great card for this deck. not sure what to take out Intangible Virtue is my only other white card other than Doomed Traveler justifying splashing white. any other suggestions of little cuts to the deck stumped at the moment?

March 31, 2014 8:20 a.m.

BattleWalrus says... #23

Hmmm, I was thinking this earlier. Maybe something like +1 Immortal Servitude . -1 Go for the Throat and -2 Gravepurge for + 2 Grave Pact ?

March 31, 2014 8:32 a.m.

Troommate says... #24

Seems fair Immortal Servitude is far better than Gravepurge and evening it out with -1 Go for the Throat to increase draw chance.

Nice suggestion think I will swap it up and give it a play test thanks again BattleWalrus.
