Deck Description

Spot remove big threats and Salvage into your Desecrations and Necromancers. Combo into your demons with Apostles, and chain Immortal with your dead ones. If you sac your Apostles with your Necros out - enjoy a nice field of 2/2s too!

Deck discussion for Shadowborn Returns

I think Immortal Servitude is what really makes Shadowborn Apostle work, otherwise SA is simply a terrible card. My only other concern is that you actually get enough apostles (out of 13) into play to summon a demon, although grisly salvage will help with that.

the idea is that SA is a human, trigger the Necro as well, giving you win-win 2/2 bodies while filling your grave with SA's. Immortal into a ton of bodies, sac for demons, gain more 2/2s, rinse, repeat. Desecration Demon is only a 4 drop, and pressure on his own. The Void is just pure terror, and can be considered a win condition.

My one final thought was about using Master of Cruelties as one of your demons, but you'd have to splash a little red in there (or hope you don't draw it).

the Master is always fun, but defeats the swarm idea of this deck seeing as he only attacks alone.
