These interactions for post-rotation have been rolling around in my head like crazy and I needed to get them off my chest. Anyone who likes wonky brews, PLEASE PITCH IDEAS.
Engine Cards:Dark Prophecy Ogre Slumlord Korozda Guildmage Purphoros, God of the Forge Immortal Servitude
support cast:Grisly Salvage Sylvan Caryatid Satyr Hedonist Burning-Tree Emissary Corpse Hauler Commune with the Gods
If there is some way to abuse those engine cards with 2-drop creatures, I want it to happen. More sac outlets would be good. Some inevitability beside purphoros would also be cool. I know there's something sick to be made and tuned here. Thanks for your input.
You'll probably want a mana-less sac engine(Blood Bairn might have to replace Bloodthrone Vampire in similar decks). Immortal Servitude decks really loses (what little)steam with the loss of Blood Artist and/or Angel of Glory's Rise (another combo with similar cards). If you can find a reliably of way of repeatedly drawing into/recurring servitude, you can generate mana with BTE and Hedonist, maybe using the mana to Undercity Informer or massive burn spell. Of course purphorous will kill as well.
I like this idea. I think I might make a modern version of this.

Tyramet would be amazing here, I'm digging it. I wonder if there's a way to go straight rakdos. If only there were more red or black graveyard enablers, but the green seems to have it all. I wonder if this deck would almost be better as an aggro deck with servitude just being for value. The fact the purphoros is also a creature turns on a lot of the enablers. I think the closest modern equivalent of this is living end.
Can anyone find some mana-less sac engines besides aristocrat, blood bairn, and like corpse blockade?

Just thinking about the new legendary rules and Tymaret and thought of this:Purphoros, God of the Forge + a Tymaret, the Murder King in the field and another Tymaret in the graveyard.Use Tymaret's 1B ability on himself to bring the other Tymaret back and trigger Purphorous 2 damage and repeat this. If you have enough mana, could this be a thing?

yes, but he goes to hand, so it isn't a loop; if only he weren't a grizzly bear....

True, I only realised that after posting. :PVarolz, the Scar-Striped let's you sac for no mana, plus everything gets scavenge.

Sac 5 creatures to Tymaret, the Murder King for 10 damage , they come back as rat tokens thanks to Ogre Slumlord and deal another 10 damage via Purphoros, God of the Forge . The only problem is needing the 10 mana/5 creatures for the initial sac

Tymaret, the Murder King is a must. He's one of my favorite underrated cards from this set.
