"You will be food; nothing more" - Gravemind

The incarnation of the Flood from Halo. The goal is to consume as much flesh as possible.

Your most important pieces are Carrion Feeder for the instant speed sacrifice +1/+1, and Ravenous Squirrel who gets a +1/+1 whenever it witnesses a sacrifice. You will want to see a Hardened Scales + Carrion feeder in your starting hand or consider a mulligan, depending on utility.

Blisterpod and Nested Shambler are insane. For 1 mana you get 2 creatures to sacrifice. Nested Shambler is even better with Rancor, Nested Shambler creates x creatures on sacrificing it, where x is it's power.

This is truly an insane circlejerk of sacrificing and +1/+1's. I once had 2 lands on turn 4 and managed to get Carrion Feeder and Ravenous Squirrel to be 28/28.

If you manage to get Grave Pact out, it locks the game. Any time a creature hits your graveyard, each opponent must sacrifice a create, loop that shit.
