This is a pretty basic sacrifice deck that I have been working on. Using Liesa, Forgotten Archangel and Kaya the Inexorable as recursion you get constant value with your smaller creatures. I'm using Snow Lands for two reasons: Priest of the Haunted Edge and Blood on the Snow. It's still pretty rough so any ideas are appreciated.

Ideal Opening:

• Turn 1: Snow-Covered Swamp + Shambling Ghast
• Turn 2: Snow-Covered Plains + Deadly Dispute the Ghast, choosing Treasure
• Turn 3: Any Land + Liesa, Forgotten Archangel or Kaya the Inexorable

Card Choices:

• Star Pupil: Holds counters SO it can get pretty big and when it dies you can put those on Liesa, Forgotten Archangel or Fleshtaker for some big bodies
• Shambling Ghast: Removal or treasure, keeping small hordes from forming and keeping the sacrifice train rolling
• Eyetwitch: amazing sacrifice fodder, allows access to sideboard and worst case it's a flying Blocker
• Priest of the Haunted Edge: scaling removal that can come back with either Liesa, Forgotten Archangel or Kaya the Inexorable
• Novice Occultist: Card Draw
• Fleshtaker: Sacrifice Outlet, heavy hitter, topdeck control, and life gain. Pair with Star Pupil for a surprise 5/5. Probably the most important nonlegendary creature in the deck.
• Fell Stinger: Card draw, sacrifice and death touch
• Liesa, Forgotten Archangel: Recursion, Lifegain, Graveyard Hate. Is a pretty big target but we can always get her back with Blood on the Snow.
• Deadly Dispute: Sacrifice, Card Draw, and Treasure all at instant speed.
• Vanishing Verse: Solid Removal
• Rite of Oblivion: For the permanents that Vanishing Verse can't target as well as sacrifice.
• Blood on the Snow: Board clear and a way to get Liesa back from the Graveyard
• Kaya the Inexorable: Recursion, Token Generation, Removal and if you manage to use her -7 it promises to keep her and Liesa safe for the rest of the game.
