Lucius, Champion of Slaanesh!

I feel like Transmogrifying Wand would do work in here (you both want a creature somewhere and want a specific body dead, and the 2/4 is ideal vs your Commander in a fight). Maybe Kiku, Night's Flower as removal on a stick? Royal Assassin is pretty good at getting your Commander back too, and has a different hoop to jump through. Not sure if it's too risky, but I love using Jaya Ballard, Task Mage as removal, her ping for 3 is big enough for most utility creatures, and she can just blow up any Blue permanent (such as Propaganda, and other annoying Blue Enchantments that are otherwise pretty sticky). Mask of Griselbrand is a repeatable 'big' draw effect, it also gives your Commander some useful abilities. Lyzolda, the Blood Witch can ping something if you want (to get your Commander back), and can also sacrifice your Commander if you need him dead (and want to draw a card and ping something). I think Lyzolda's ability would result in Lucius entering the graveyard with the ping ability still on the stack, meaning his death trigger would go on top and resolve first, so you could technically kill a creature with Lyzolda by sacrificing Lucius and get Lucius back right away (also a card I guess?), not sure if that's relevant in your meta. It might be hard to trigger, but Lagomos, Hand of Hatred can tutor up whatever you need situationally, and for no new mana. I'm not sure if it's enough of a buff, but Tenza, Godo's Maul is a is a nice equipment for a Red legend that likes to swing, and Equip 1 is pretty sweet for +3 and Trample.
I feel like Hellish Rebuke would be a neat trick to both wipe out some attackers and recur your Commander at the same time, nice dual purpose effect potentially. It's getting a bit pricey, but Make an Example is an incredible card for a Sorcery, since you pick the pile you'll always get at least the most problematic thing (for each player, unless you're being political) despite it not targeting and not being a destroy effect (so it gets around almost any protection yet printed).
I read some lore about this guy the other day, pretty crazy stuff!

All Roads Lead To Hellbent

I have never used Lyzolda, the Blood Witch before. A token strategy would be good to use with her. Hellbent is a good idea also. Have you considered using Land's Edge Pyromancer's Swath or Pyromancy in this deck? The Flame of Keld might also be a decent card here.

Nice deck. This looks like a fun card! :) Lyzolda, the Blood Witch. I can appreciate wanting to build around a card and this just looks like a fun one to do it with!

Have you considered Furnace Celebration or Lyzolda, the Blood Witch?
Both fit your sacrifice theme.

Thanks for posting, idfkgabe. Fling or Thud would definitely be better here, but I wanted to avoid those two since that would make Lyzolda, the Blood Witch kind of irrelevant. She’s the card I wanted to build around, so I didn’t want to undermine that.

I don't know if you need a bit more draw, but Lyzolda, the Blood Witch is a good way to sac and draw and damage, etc. At least, depending on the colors!
DemonDragonJ on Should I Keep Angrath in …

After deliberating my above list of sacrifice outlets, I have removed several creatures; I removed Gnawing Zombie because Lampad of Death's Vigil is strictly better than it; I removed Gutless Ghoul because Disciple of Griselbrand is better than it in the majority of situations; I removed Skullport Merchant because it cannot sacrifice itself;, and I removed Soulreaper of Mogis and Spark Reaper because their abilities are to expensive to activate; thus, here is my new list of potential sacrifice outlets for my deck:

Which creature is the most appealing of these?
DemonDragonJ on Should I Keep Angrath in …

seshiro_of_the_orochi, that is an excellent card, but it requires that the stolen creature be sacrificed immediately, and it is also a one-time effect, and I am seeking a repeatable effect.
I think that I shall replace Angrath with Captivating Crew in my red/white/black deck, as that deck already has two sacrifice outlets in the form of Butcher of the Horde and Immersturm Predator, but, as for my red/green/black deck, I have actually found several cards that would work for it, which I shall compile into a list.

That is an impressive list of creatures that sacrifice other creatures, so I now need to decide which of them I shall put into my deck; does anyone here have any suggestions?
