Mardu Aristocrats in standard is just as we remember. It's a fun gimmicky deck that can drain the life of your opponent fairly efficiently. There is only one problem, keeping up your sacrifice fodder.

Original Pieces

Footlight Fiend and Gutterbones are the two best sac options in the strategy. One drains, the other never dies. Priest of Forgotten Gods is still the primary outlet of the deck as well. The final remaining pieces of the original strategy are Judith, the Scourge Diva and Midnight Reaper for obvious reasons.

New Additions

Dreadhorde Butcher is a new damage dealer and ideal sac option. Cruel Celebrant is also a new piece because of how it drains life equally as efficient. Sorin, Vengeful Bloodlord is a great damage dealer, but his primary role is reviving your smaller sac options. Tibalt, Rakish Instigator is great for control, but primarily produces another Footlight Fiend . Lastly, Widespread Brutality is a great sweeper and an easy combo with Sorin.

Please produce any and all suggestions for the sideboard.
