Hey all!

I need some help with this B/G Eldrazi deck and would love some feedback!

---

I got into Magic plaing a B/G sacrifice deck, which used Dictate of Erebos and undying creatures like Demonlord of Ashmouth and Young Wolf.

Now I wanted to adapt that strategy to the Eldrazi Scions, using From Beyond in combination with Dictate of Erebos.

The Eldrazi Scions can be sacrificed at any moment and grant us mana at the same time.

We will be able to use Bone Splinters, Tragic Slip and Altar's Reap without too much of a drawback and gain enough mana to play cards a turn or two earlier.

---

To create tokens we use the following cards:

• Blisterpod - A Cheap creature that can be sacrificed for Bone Splinters or Altar's Reap leaving an Eldrazi Scion behind.

• Catacomb Sifter - One of my favourite cards since Zendikar has been released. It gives us an Eldrazi Scoin as it enters the battlefield and lets us scry whenever we loose or sacrifice a creature.

• Call the Scions - Pretty simple and doesn't need an explanation. However, I am not sure if I might want to replace it with cards like Merciless Executioner, Warping Wail , or other ones from the sideboard. Not sure if Nest Invader or Carrier Thrall might just be better.

• From Beyond - This is our personal treadmill factory. It will create a token every turn and lets us sacrifice itself to get our hands on one of our bigger Eldrazis like Oblivion Sower, Emrakul, the Promised End or Ulamog, the Ceaseless Hunger.

---

We use the following cards to profit from or enable sacrificing:

• Bone Splinters - A Cheap spot removal for which we will most likely sacrifice an Eldrazi Scion or Blisterpod .

• Tragic Slip - It is fairly similar to Bone Splinters, but finds use in different situations since it is instant speed. I will have to try and see which one works best.

• Altar's Reap - Drawing two cards for two mana and sacrificing a creature at instant speed is good enough.

NOTE: Swapped out Altar's Reap for two more copies of Bone Splinters, because I found myself fishing for removal with it too often.

• Dictate of Erebos - The other part of the combo, which will hopefully ensure that we stay in full control of the board for the rest of the game. Whenever we sacrifice a Scion for mana or otherwise our opponent will have to sacrifice a creature himself. This also works great with Kalitas, Traitor of Ghet.

• Zulaport Cutthroat - A simple, yet effective addition to the deck. If Catacomb Sifter is on the board, we will not only do damage and gain life whenever one of our creatures dies, but we will also be able to Scry 1.

• Smothering Abomination - A really decent body with an ability that is made for this kind of deck. The combination of From Beyond, Dictate of Erebos and Smothering Abomination will most likely never be on the board at the same time, but if it happens it works wonders.

---

The remaining forces of our deck:

• Kalitas, Traitor of Ghet - He works in pretty much any deck that shares black as a color and works with removal. Super strong and I am lucky enough to have two copies of it.

• Conduit of Ruin - I personally like Oblivion Sower more, since we already have From Beyond to fetch our Eldrazis, but it is nice to have an extra fetch with a decent body attached.

• Oblivion Sower - Super strong body for 6 mana with a more than decent ability. He could remove important combo pieces our opponent needs or help us get the necessary mana we need to cast Ulamog, the Ceaseless Hunger or Emrakul, the Promised End.

• Ulamog, the Ceaseless Hunger - Alongside Emrakul, the Promised End he will hopefully end the game for us, exiling two permanents and hopefully the rest of our opponents library.

• Emrakul, the Promised End - Our last resort, if Ulamog, the Ceaseless Hunger doesn't do the trick (because he will be removed instantly by Path to Exile) we still have her left.

Alright, that's all for now!

I hope you like it and if you want to leave any feedback or upvotes please do so, I highly appreciate it!
