Deck Description

so i have been pondering over extraction lately, and i've decided to try a token-heavy bitterbomb (or massive bitter ordeal) deck. The main idea is to build up a insane amount of tokens, then sacrifice them all to either the altar or the hypnotist, then dropping bitter ordeal for an ungodly amount. then, as your tokens flood the board for the second time, wait for your opponents draw out their deck. i've splashed in some poxtraction for more fun. i'm thinking of including some tarmogoyf for some post-pox beatdown, but idk. oh, and bloodghast would be deadly. Please tell me what u think.
enjoy!

Deck discussion for Bitter Extract

I like the use of the Alter a lot. Very disruptive. Adding in Extirpate or haunting echoes might work nicely with it.

Tarmogoyf is mostly dominant in dedicated Poxtractions, which are just Bitterbombs fueled by Pox instead of other means, such as token spam/sacrifice. Since Pox just tosses all kinds of crap into people's graveyards, the Goyf will commonly be enormous at a very early stage in the game.

Overall a very good design, I like it. =]

i actualy had a few tarmogoyf in here for a while, but i couldn't figure out what to take out. so i dropped them to make it sixty cards. ive also been thinking about exterplate and haunting echos, but once again idk what to take out. do u have any suggestions of what to drop?

I would honestly take out the Pox(s). I keep seeing your deck being unable to survive its own Pox. That's not a bad thing, it's just how the deck is designed. I would put in three Extirpates and take the Pox out and then drop the Liege down to 2.

ya, i was actualy just thinking that pox is kinda suicide with this... i'll take all of your advice, even though i usualy wouldn't think about lowering the liege count. Thanks a bunch. i'll let you know if it helps.
