I like the inclusion of Vicious Conquistador and Warboss for sac outlets. Too often I think you'll end up in top deck deck mode if you don't draw optimally or end the game fast enough. Midnight Reaper fits perfectly into this list as a source of card draw and will allow you to recover from board wipes. I prefer high power one drops like Gutterbones in combination with Judith, as their potential to go unblocked in the first few turns can steal games, and they're more likely to trade up. You could use more redundancy than a play set of Priests, as cards like resembling skeleton are a dead draw unless they can be sacrificed. A card like Fireblade Artist will over perform in a deck so dedicated to killing its own creatures, even if it isn't attacking. I hope this helped, gl hf

This is a nice use of Judith. I opened one at the Ravnica pre-release and didn't have the card synergy to make any good use of her, but you have a combination of sac creatures that do extra damage. Could add up fast. Thanks!

Maybe cut Reassembling Skeleton for some cards that will help you draw and deck cycle. Theater of Horrors Risk Factor and Sword-Point Diplomacy come to mind.

I feel like this could have some serious potential splashing white for Teysa Karlov . The check and shock lands may be able to hold the mana base together if you do, but it won't be as consistent.

Also Risk Factor is super overrated, 3 mana for 4 damage is very underwhelming. Anyone who knows what they are doing is going to take the damage, and although that synergizes with your incremental damage, it's just too slow.

I have looked at this deck often over the past week or two and have considered building something similar. If I copy your deck and try to modify it, I somehow always end up adding in Vraska, Scheming Gorgon , Immolation Shaman and Bladebrand and end up moving away from creature sacrifice. I then end up with something that looks rather different but a lot more janky. To make it more resilient, I end up replacing high cmc creatures with deathtouch weenies and really battle to get a balanced approach. The more that I look at the deck, the more I see problems against other aggro decks or decks with lots of creature removal.

I would get rid of Vicious Conquistador , Fungal Infection , and Sovereign's Bite . Maybe you could use some things from your maybe board, but Discovery / Dispersal , Cast Down , and Fight with Fire (for Lyra) have a place here?

This deck is nice, I feel like control decks running a lot of board wipes especially Orzhov or Esper might over counter it though. You may want to cut Vicious Conquistador for some card draw like 2 Risk Factor and 2 Duress or Drill Bit

True, thats why i have 3 Duress and 2 Experimental Frenzies in Sideboard.
