Welcome to Mogis' Slaughter House

He is your God Cow!

Mogis God Of Slaughter: your meat manager on duty

The main goal of the deck is to win by bleeding your opponents out with powerful card effects. Some are slow and steady, others are like a huge meat cleaver taking big chunks out of your opponents life.

Mogis is ideal for Commander for a deck like this. He slowly burns your opponents or sends one of their creatures to the chopping block. He's also indestructible, which is great seeing as we have quite some cards that cause dmg to creatures. That way we don't have to be afraid that we send him back to the command zone, and he can keep burning or chopping away safely.

There's an, accidental, infinite combo's in the deck; Exquisite Blood + Sanguine Bond / Vito, Thorn of the Dusk Rose. It's not our aim to get these out asap, as winning on infinites is boring. But if you're forced, or you play with others who solely rely on infinites, why nut. :D

Prepare for trouble and make it double

Like the famous words of Team Rocket's Jessie and James, the following cards double the damage and with it the trouble for our opponents.

• Fiery Emancipation: Triples only our dmg sources directly
• Furnace of Rath: Doubles all dmg sources, including dmg opponents inflict on each other
• Wound Reflection: Doubles the total dmg our opponents received at the end of turn

Wound Reflection also triggers on dmg our opponents deal to each other.

There is also Dictate of the Twin Gods and Gratuitous Violence but I felt it was redundant to have more than current double damage enablers in the deck. A control card felt better in that spot.

Complaining is draining

This section is about bleeding our opponents dry. We achieve this by either slowly burning them to death chopping massive chunks out of them.

Most meat cleaving cards also double as board-wipes in some form or another.

Need some Aloe for that burn? Show

• Mogis, God of Slaughter
• Leechridden Swamp
• Bloodchief Ascension
• Exquisite Blood
• Manabarbs
• Painful Quandary
• Polluted Bonds
• Sanguine Bond
• Spellshock
• Blood Artist
• Crypt Ghast: The "Extort" part
• Harsh Mentor

How to use a meat cleaver Show

• Heartless Hidetsugu: Extra juicy with the double dmg dealers and some lifegain
• Kaervek the Merciless
• Vial Smasher the Fierce
• Viashino Heretic
• Vito, Thorn of the Dusk Rose: Self enabler with 5 mana to use it's effect
• Price of Progress
• Disrupt Decorum: Potential to cause mass damage if used at the right time
• Exsanguinate

Don't be silly, protect that willy

Since we're not a creature heavy deck, we need to protect our selves so we're not open season for our opponents.

We achieve this through control and stax.

Controlling the board state is crucial if we want to maintain presence, it helps us deter our opponents in attacking us or targeting our stuff.

I'm not really a control freak, but can I show you the right way to do that? Show

• Blast Zone: One of the few ways to deal with Enchantments in Rakdos
• Strip Mine: Problematic Land removal
• Chaosphere: Say "nope" to Flying creature based decks
• No Mercy: Destroys creatures that deal dmg to us, no matter where the dmg came from. Has a cool side effect with Blood Artist too
• Smoke: Say "nope" to creature based decks
• Disrupt Decorum: This is for those heavy creature decks
• Toxic Deluge: Cheap mass removal
• Vandalblast: Artifact Removal
• Ophiomancer: Deathtouch token generator
• Brash Taunter: Deters our opponents from attacking us
• Viashino Heretic: Artifact Removal
• Chaos Warp: Remove a troublesome permanent
• Deadly Rollick: Exile in Rakdos
• Dismember: Bypasses Indestructible and can be cast for 1 generic
• Deflecting Swat: Return the favor for targeted shenanigans
• Feed the Swarm: One of the few ways to deal with Enchantments in Rakdos
• Rakdos Charm: Remove artifact, graveyards and deals dmg
• Winds of Change: The alternative, and much much cheaper, version of Wheel of Fortune
• Liliana of the Dark Realms: -3 Ability

No crying during Tax season Show

• Citadel of Pain: Don't tap land, get dmg
• Koskun Falls: Black Propaganda. Not an attack based deck so tapping down 1 creature won't hinder us
• Painful Quandary: Life or discard, their choice
• Manabarbs: Tap land, get dmg
• Spellshock: Each spell cast now costs life
• Harsh Mentor: Each ability now costs life
• Kazuul, Tyrant of the Cliffs: Attacking now costs mana and gives us free 3/3 blockers

Can you stack McNuggets' deck with more mana?!

Even roosters know that you can't play a MTG game without extra mana enablers.

Here's a list of what we sling with to get some extra mana:

• Ancient Tomb
• Cabal Coffers: Specially in combination with Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth
• Myriad Landscape
• Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx
• Altar of the Pantheon
• Arcane Signet
• Expedition Map
• Sol Ring
• Talisman of Indulgence
• Crypt Ghast: Specially in combination with Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth
• Treasure Nabber
• Dark Ritual
• Mana Geyser: Huge mana generation to either swarm the field with big stuff or dump in a mana sink card (Exsanguinate, etc)
• Liliana of the Dark Realms: Land ramp is always good. Even if you hit land drops, it will still thin the deck

Deal with your problems by becoming rich

Problems on the board are dealt with easier by enabling ourselves to acquire more cards.

Here we have card draw and tutors to make sure we're all set up.

• Necropotence
• Phyrexian Arena
• Night's Whisper
• Read the Bones
• Sign in Blood
• Graveborn Muse
• Erebos, God of the Dead
• Winds of Change
• Demonic Tutor
• Grim Tutor
• Vampiric Tutor

Like Oreos, the good stuff is on the inside

Some all around goodstuff cards.

• Phyresis is in there cause I put 1 infect card in all my decks and has fun synergy with some of the cards in here
• Underworld Breach: Enables you to get great a many things back from the graveyard
• Lithoform Engine: Copy triggers, copy permanents, copy spells all in one? Yes please
• Shadowspear: More lifegain and even the ability to get rid of hexproof and indestructible on opponents monsters so we can kill them with a dmg dealing card

Fatality: Toasty

Here are our other win-cons, besides Mogis cleaving, to provide our opponents with a gruesome fate:

• Phyresis + any creature damage dealing card for those sweet infect kills
• Exquisite Blood + Sanguine Bond / Vito, Thorn of the Dusk Rose
• Vito, Thorn of the Dusk Rose 5 mana ability + any burn damage dealing card
• Exsanguinate
• Repercussion + Blasphemous Act / Rolling Earthquake / Disrupt Decorum
• Heartless Hidetsugu + Vito, Thorn of the Dusk Rose / Shadowspear and any double dmg card for instant win

I'm open to suggestions and ideas to improve the deck. Bonus points if you make a suggestion and mention what you would cut for it and why.

The deck has already been through several changes. These can be found in the "Update" section below, as well as the reason why said change was made.

The deck is made so to provide our opponents with as much "enjoyability" as possible. Granted they are snacks for the God Cow, but they can be so without having fear their lands or their hands will be blown up.

Be sure to check out my other decks for even more funzies:

• [Primer] Rainforest Shmainforest: Not For Hippies!
