@ goodair, yea your deck looks pretty good, but can regeneration regenerate sacrificed creatures though? another thing to mention is that Nighthowler is on the MAYBE list, because im still on the edge of whether I want shit to become powerful based on my graveyard/ opponents graveyard, or if I simply want to bring shit back from the graveyard simply to sacrifice them for more effects, or if it was an important creature, actually keep it there.also Birthing Pod looks pretty good, so I might want to put that in my deck because its a sacrifice a creature, look for a creature with 1 plus whatever the converted mana cost of sacrificed creature's mana cost, and put it onto the field (meaning if i can get a creature with a morbid effect or something similar it will automatically proc) and im wondering if using undying as sacrifice's is a good idea.also, if a card FORCES me to sacrifice a creature every upkeep, could I use Birthing Pod 's sacrifice effect and have it count to the requirement of a forced sacrifice

also, @chief bell, those are pretty good suggestions, thanks :D
do you happen to know how much they go for money wise?

If you wanna use birthing pod along with a forced sac like Eldrazi Monument , you cant do do two for one, you need to sac one for the force and another for birthing. You cant regenerate something that was sacrificed either =s. From what it seems like what you want to do is sac creatures with persist or undying and prob have some creatures to remove their counters so they can die again. Melira pod decks have a inf combo that uses that method and they are one of the better decks in modern format. Gravecrawler and Bloodghast are some low mana cards that come back from grave which might work out for you. If you wanna use Nighthowler , you can prob run some removal spells because it counts for creatures in all graves. Hope this helps a bit.

@goodair, thanks. which aspect would you suggest I go on: self sacrifice with cards that come back from the grave, or sacrifice cards and have those cards stay in their graveyard (so Jarad, Lich Lord and Nighthowler to get maximum efficiency?

If I were you, i'd look up other decks that people have made, play test them, and see what you enjoy more. Then from there you can make changes that you see fit. It's a good way to learn some card interactions that the deck builder might have come across.

Please post an actual deck on the site. It'll be easier to read through. Do you need help on how to do that?
