First of all, this deck is inspired by Zargast What's Yours is Mine. Rakdos Aristocrats leans more towards aggro via the sac outlets, making the win-cons either going big with
Carrion Feeder
and
Blood Bairn
or going wide with token generators like
Mogg War Marshal
and
Kuldotha Rebirth
.
The main creatures to use are the aforementioned Feeder and Bairn, with
Altar's Reap
for card draw. There is one additional sac outlet in
Viscera Seer
, but that is mainly used to help for getting favorable card draws. This deck has a LOT of things to sacrifice for the outlets, from the marshal (both the tokens and itself), Kuldotha Rebirth,
Perilous Myr
, and the recently downgrade-to-common
Dragon Egg
. Rebirth has targets in Perilous Myr,
Ichor Wellspring
, and the various artifact lands.
Have the sac outlets but nothing to sac? No problem!
Act of Treason
and the newly released
Hijack
have you covered. And
Tragic Slip
is there to take advantage of all the sacrifice shenanigans.
The sideboard contains
Sylvok Lifestaff
and
Rite of Consumption
for aggro and burn matchups,
Smash to Smithereens
for affinity,
Tormod's Crypt
for graveyard hate (plan to replace this with
Relic of Progenitus
when I get the chance),
Electrickery
against tokens and elves,
Innocent Blood
for bogles, and
Fling
and
Duress
for control.
This deck does lose to sweepers like Eletrickery and
Holy Light
, but large creatures aren't much of a threat.
TL;DR: Make loads of tokens, then swarm or sac for big dudes!
I appreciate any and all constructive feedback, and I hope you enjoy the deck!
