Thanks to everyone who gave +1!

So many ridiculous combos with this guy. Creatures are split between sac outlets and fodder can be sac'd infinitely.

Infinite mana, infinite damage, infinite mill, infinite stealing, infinite creatures, infinite draw, infinite p/t on some creatures, infinite discard and infinite forced sacrifice are all possible as soon as you get Mikaeus out.

I just wish there were more mono-black persist and evoke creatures :(

Triskelion - The star of the deck, infinite damage to target. Sac outlet and fodder in one.

Workhorse - infinite mana
Cinderhaze Wretch - hand hate
Tatterkite
Wingrattle Scarecrow
Lingering Tormentor

Devouring Swarm - infinite p/t
Viscera Seer - free vampiric tutor!
Blasting Station - infinite damage
Phyrexian Altar - infinite mana
