Additions:

  • Carrion Feeder over Ayli, Eternal Pilgrim: I care more about the sacrifice than the utility that Ayli provides. Feeder does this better. I also considered Hidden Stockpile, but the free sacrifice is a bit more valuable atm, though I might change my mind in the future.

  • Krav, the Unredeemed and Regna, the Redeemer over Animate Dead and Victimize: These two bring everything we want as an aristocrats/token deck: sacrifice, card draw, lifegain, and tokens. The recursion is good, but I'd rather include more proactive plays. Phyrexian Reclamation is really all the recursion we need.

  • Land Tax over Swamp: There's really no reason to not play this over a land. It's also a great tutor early to make sure land drops are always hit.

  • Ogre Slumlord over Open the Graves: First, rat tokens have deathtouch which is more valuable than 2/2. Second, the rats work with Skullclamp. Third, rat dude triggers off of opponent's creatures dying as well.
