Sacrifice and life gain combo deck consisting mostly of extra cards I've had collecting dust which I want to play. Built for casual play among friends.

Core combo: Bogbrew Witch + Bubbling Cauldron + Festering Newt

  1. Use Bogbrew Witch to fetch Festering Newt or Bubbling Cauldron if needed.

  2. Sacrifice Festering Newt with Bubbling Cauldron, opponents lose, you gain, target creature gets -4/-4. Extend the combo with Angelic Accord.

  3. Repeat.

Alternate combo: Tenacious Dead + Bubbling Cauldron + Angelic Accord

Any partial combo of this is devious. This is nasty and can be repeated each turn.

  1. Sacrifice Tenacious Dead with Cauldron, gain 4 life, return Tenacious Dead to play, and add a 4/4 angel token at end step.

  2. Repeat.

The rest of the deck serves to buy time for the combo pieces to find their place on the battlefield. Although decent on their own, Royal Assassin and Gideon's Lawkeeper form a nasty duo. High Priest of Penance serves as sort of a targetable deathtouch except better because it beats first strike. Additionally, Mother of Runes can provide protection to one or more combo pieces.

Overall, this deck can be clunky, like all combo decks, but in a casual environment it's fun.
