Sideboard


Maybeboard


First and foremost: use the tokens as disposable assets with Lich's Mastery and your graveyard as needed. You also will use tokens to bring out Torgaar, Famine Incarnate incredibly fast. When you lose life, get rid of tokens, or graveyard cards you don't need. That's the plan there. Basically the idea is to get a solid board going, then get to Lich's Mastery. When low, use Torgaar, Famine Incarnate to then boost your life back up to 10 and draw some cards if you want to. Don't forget with Lich's Mastery in play you can go negative life. This allows you to draw a lot of cards if you use a Torgaar, Famine Incarnate trigger. Liliana, Death's Majesty helps put things in the graveyard and bring Torgaar into play, or other creatures. Vraska, Relic Seeker is just crazy as she generates even more tokens to sacrifice, and her ultimate is pretty much a win condition. Use Mastermind's Acquisition to dig for what you need, and also dig into your sideboard for answers to whatever is in front of you. Sacrifice saprolings while Slimefoot, the Stowaway is out to gain a life, and draw a card and do some pinging to your opponent. Fungal Plots is a new addition as of today. Since you're already popping off saproling tokens left and right, you might as well maximize them. Sacrificing them to the Fungal Plots allows for extra card draw. Two tokens nets you three cards and two life. Insane! Gifted Aetherborn are some good early game deterrents. A big part of this deck is using your sideboard. Look at it. It has flexibility there that can get you a game one win easy if something unexpected pops up. Always remember it! You can use Mastermind's Acquisition's second ability to sift through it and pull something. (Repeating for emphasis!)

Fatal Push and Vreska's Contempt go hand in hand usually. Two pushes are in the board to fetch if you really need them. Feel free to swap those around with the Cast Down any way you please. The Mastermind's Acquisition can reach for them in either event. Lost Legacy is for Goblin Chainwhirler or Settle the Wreckage or even that pesky Superfriends deck. You should also consider using it against Hour of Revelation and River's Rebuke. Ive also decided to elevate Golden Demise to the maybeboard bc it might be handy versus other low HP enemy token decks, and might have some synergy with Slimefoot, the Stowaway.

Another note; if the game is being drawn out a long time dig in your sideboard for a Twilight Prophet because she will basically just win you the game too. She draws you a free card when you have the City's Blessing, and then nukes your opponent for the casting cost of that card, and then you gain life AND DRAW CARDS EQUAL TO ITS CASTING COST WITH Lich's Mastery IN PLAY! BRUTAL!

Feedback is appreciated!

UPDATE: Ok, I took of the gloves, and made some serious decisions based on testing for this deck. It needed speed, so I said goodbye to some cards, and swapped up for Llanowar Elves and more control. The win conditions are still present, and Lich's Mastery is still a great closer. It is now just more focused and tidy, and Torgaar, Famine Incarnate comes out just as fast if not faster now. I've also made some mana adjustments.
