This is a deck geared around getting
Priest of the Blood Rite
out and then reusing and abusing his ability. Here is my ideas on the deck.
Priest of the Blood Rite
This is the main goal of the deck. Put this guy out, get his demon and then get rid of him. I have a fair amount of sac engines, so he should maybe only see 1 upkeep. If he does see the upkeep and ticks me for 2, I always make sure to swing with him before I sac him. This offsets the 2 life cost and normally my opponent will let it go through thinking I will take another 2 the next upkeep.
Qarsi Sadist
This is just a sac outlet and a early blocker. 1/3 isn't terrible and his exploit help with extra damage and life gain to offset
Priest of the Blood Rite
.
Vampire Envoy
This is another blocker. 1/4 flying plus I can get health back when he gets tapped.
Bearer of Silence
This is another creature I like. I can turn 2 for a 2/1 flying and start ticking my opponent, or turn 4 for removal. Downside is that it can't block.
Necromantic Summons
I also like having this card in my deck. It takes my
Priest of the Blood Rite
out of the graveyard, can make it a 4/4, or can pull a creature from the opponents graveyard so they have to contend with that. I usually look for something they will want to bring back, or an ability that will disrupt them for a turn or 2. Cost is 5 so I won't use it early, but once I start rolling out Demons it's a good card to keep putting on pressure.
Pulse of Mursa Another really good card for my build. 3 cost creature or land return and I gain 6 life. This helps me stall a turn or 2 so I can get out the creatures I need, or put
Priest of the Blood Rite
back in my hand. I use it on my opponents end step so I don't sit a whole turn with tapped lands.
Bone Splinters Decent removal and helps me get rid of my priest.
Altar's Reap
Another priest remover. I also use it for when my opponent goes for creature removal. I still lose the creature but at least I can draw 2 cards.
Evolutionary Leap This is great since i'm only running 16 creatures. Takes out my priest or creature that is about to die and then finds me a new one.
Shadows of the Past
This helps me scry through my deck and find the cards I need.
I have play tested with some friends and it's not terrible. Won 3 out of 4 games, but our decks aren't too competitive. I would like to make it competitive but I am unsure what to look for. Any help would be awesome.
