Shadowborn Apostle + Desecration Demon + Alpha Authority .

I've been thinking a lot about desecration demon's sacrifice ability and considered the fact that in the right deck you could easily sacrifice your own stuff to make him absolutely massive. If you have a deck full of Shadowborn Apostle you can sacrifice them to your own demon so that he's like a 10/10 or something. Then I thought about Alpha Authority so he has hexproof.

I know it's silly and a really convoluted strategy but Johnny side needs to be appeased at the moment.

Two problems with that:

A. Desecration Demon 's sacrifice trigger specifies that an opponent has to sac a creature. You can't do the sacrifice.

B. Even if you could, you can only sacrifice one creature at a time, so you can't just load up on Apostles and sac 'em all at once.

Here's the true Johnny's answer:

Go Modern. Use Sorin Markov and Mindslaver to take their turn. Use Strionic Resonator s to multiply his triggers and sacrifice the opponent's creatures multiple times to him, while also taking their turn.

Unnecessarily convoluted? Yes. Hilarious? Also yes.
