"Mono-red is best" "Mono-black is best" Foolish mutterings from foolish fools too foolish to understand their own foolishness. Don't you see? Can't you feel it in the air? This standard is the season...

... of black-red artifact sacrifice.

#original #not shown: all the beautiful monocolor cards that support this strategy as well #Voldaren Epicure pings the opponent and gives a convenient blood token #Vraan Executioner Thane to amp up the burn #i originally made this as an aggro deck but then i realized just how much continuous value you can generate #Stormclaw Rager is a fucking monster with how much card advantage it can generate #related: i put 3 Stormclaws in my blood token deck and it was EXACTLY what that deck needed #the deck can generate massive piles of blood tokens but then runs out of cards in hand #and yeah you can sac blood tokens to fish for the perfect card #but why bother when you can just draw ALL THE CARDS!!! #and get a big creature along the way #and a huge shout-out to Oni-Cult Anvil for tying together the artifact-sacrifice and creature-sacrifice themes #as well as providing incredible value over time by generating a free artifact creature to sacrifice every turn #and they STACK! #the tap ability becomes pretty irrelevant once you get another sac outlet #but that's because other sac outlets include STORMCLAW RAGER!!! YEAH BABY!!! #and of course Voldaren Epicure is best friends with the Anvil #turn 1 epicure turn 2 anvil and bada bing bada boom you immediately start up your life drain engine #get a Vraan in there next turn and you can ruin your opponent's day in record time
