"Some of you may die, but it's a sacrifice I am willing to make." -Lord Farquaad

Here’s the game plan: steal your opponents creatures and sacrifice them instead of giving them back! This deck is built around being a terrible friend.

Tevesh Szat, Doom of Fools is awesome for stabilizing the strategy. Need sacrifice fodder? Have some thrull! Need a sacrifice outlet? Draw some cards to boot! His third ability is so circumstantial that it most likely won't be used, but hey, could be funny.

Rograkh, Son of Rohgahh is pretty much just a free card to be sacrificed (and Tevesh gives you 3 cards off of him). Springleaf Drum also makes him a turn 1 mana dork and he can become a threat with Tarrian's Soulcleaver or Fain, the Broker.

As far as win conditions go, this deck is pretty opportunistic. Most of the damage it deals comes from building up +1/+1 counters or stealing big creatures from opponents.
