Sek'Kuar is my favorite Commander of all time. Aristocrats is always fun, but Sek'Kuar forces you to build a bit differently. He specifically states your nontoken stuff has to die. So, through this unique ability, I built a deck using new methods to get Se'Kuar off! So, here we go....

You see, first of all we have access to Red, Black, and Green. Meaning we get the legendary SQUEE, the single greatest troll of Goblin to ever exist. Squee (as well as Endless Cockroaches) goes right back to your hand from your grave every turn, so he is easy sacrifice fodder to stuff like Scarland Thrinax and Falkenrath Aristocrat. So he's one of our obvious outs. But....the best part of Sek'Kuar is that he just needs nontoken creatures. So....make your lands creatures. Blinkmoth Nexus and Hissing Quagmire are two lands you just get to do that with already, but cards like Waker of the Wilds and the Life half of Death (which also gets some recursion value on the other half) turn lands into creatures. So technically, you can say you have access to over 2/3 your deck as creatures.

The last part of your gameplan is Sek'Kuar's other power. Token generation, which you can do in plenty. Stuff like Feed the Pack, Gutter Grime, and Dragon Broodmother keep pushing out tokens, which may not go towards Sek'Kuar but do build a board quickly. They also make great fuel for Goblin Bombardment, which can annihilate a life total quickly with tokens. Or, just put them all on the offensive with Ogre Battledriver. In the end, between your sacrificing shenanigans (including the ol' Mikaeus Redcap combo you can abuse) and your token spawning rampage, it's pretty easy to pull out something to win the war.

EDITS:

I cut a few things out and changed the land base. Things we added:

Treetop Village, Ghitu Encampment, Mutavault - More self animating lands to sac if needed.

Skarrg Guildmage - Whisperwood Elemental kept getting key cards killed by boardwipes. Traded to have access to easier (and bigger) land creatures at a cheaper rate.

Mazirek, Grumgully, and Woodfall Primus - Better value with Mikaeus and Redcap. Plus, better overall for cards like Feed the Pack and Jarad.

Disk, Journal, Plunderer, Gearhulk- Overall better value and synergy. Journal can Tutor more than once, Disk is a wipe we canrecur, Plunderer helps fix mana/ramp, and Gearhulk is just good removal and sustain.
