---

A slightly more competitive than casual build. It has a decent amount of tutors, mana ramp, card draw and some always crazy cards like Razaketh and Gary. Nice for a "bad guy" deck for a casual game of archenemy or a decent deck in most metas.

Subthemes:

Devotion:Nykthos, shrine to nyx -for more big black mana!

Erebos, god of the dead - big blocker, and a heavy hitter too. When he's a creature, you can kill at least one creature that swings at you, every turn.

Zombies: Zombie Apocalypse- great to end a game by bringing back Gray Merchant of Asphodel along with a few other zombies.

Relentless dead- great utility

Dreadscape zombie- sacrifice fodder, and sometimes a last mintue devotion enabler

Army of the Damned- big mana off of Cryptghast can make an early one of these an absoultely devastating blowout.

Lord of the accursed - making thirteen or 26!! menace 3/3s, is always fun

Lilana's mastery - mostly there because its harder to remove than a creature and the devotion is really good.

Ramp:Cryptghast- the most important card in the deck. Seriously big mana lets you dig with erebos, god of death , and cast whatever you find. I tutor for either this or...

Liliana of the Dark Realms- awesome just for guaranteeing a land each turn. If you ult her, which isnt too hard if you keep boardwiping, its basically just game over.

Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx -for more big black mana!

Bubbling Muck High tide, in black. Its not as great as some other options, but its still crazy late game in causual.

Magus of the Coffers- The only thing that makes this better than Cabal Coffers is that it is 20+ dollars cheaper.

Sacrifice stuff for advantages:Disciple of Bolas- Draw, and also gain more life to draw more.

Razaketh, the Foulblooded- literally a game winner. Tutor for whatever you need, usually starting with a Doomed Dissenter or Reassembling Skeleton. Sometimes, even a dreadscape zombie can work.

Big fun demons:Westvale Abbey  , Kothoped, Soul hoarder ,Razaketh, the Foulblooded also work into the sacrifice theme!
