Hello all! Welcome to my Sek'Kuar, Deathkeeper deck.

In a way this is a token deck, but really it's a "Fuel" deck. It uses Sacrifice outlets to control the board, and tokens are just one aspect of that.

The main thing that red adds to this type of strategy is its Threaten effects. Since we want these effects to be on creatures we use Molten Primordial , Conquering Manticore , and Zealous Conscripts . The other aspect that red adds is "temporary tokens" with things like Flameshadow Conjuring . Mimic Vat also falls into this category, and is fantastic with things like Fleshbag Marauder , Merciless Executioner , and other ETB creatures.

The best fuel for this deck is Bloodghast . If you can get him with Perilous Forays you can get as many "Dies" effects as you have untapped lands. This also works with Rampaging Baloths and Omnath, Locus of Rage (whom I'm trying to acquire). You can also use creatures like Reassembling Skeleton , Bloodsoaked Champion , and Despoiler of Souls . The best part about these creatures is that they keep coming back and that they're Non-Token, but the second best part is that they have 1 toughness, so they can be Skullclamp ed.

Similar to Red's Threaten effects you can get fuel for your sac-outlets from your opponents' graveyards. Sepulchral Primordial and Puppeteer Clique come to mind. Although not a creature Grave Betrayal is also pretty awesome.

The main way to control the board is through Grave Pact effects. Butcher of Malakir and Dictate of Erebos are the others. Attrition works if your opponents aren't using black creatures. There are also a few Draw engines with things like Deathreap Ritual and Vampiric Rites .

Other than that the strategy is pretty simple: Get value and Graveborn from sac outlets. Clear your opponents' boards of blockers. Then swing in for the win after dropping a Beastmaster Ascension or Thunderfoot Baloth . Or just use Vicious Shadows , whichever comes first.

All suggestions are welcome, though my playgroup frowns on infinite combos and mass land destruction, so I won't be including Ashnod's Altar or any MLD. Please let me know what you think!
