Deck Description

This deck is all about producing a ton of junk tokens, and sacrificing them to either power up your big creatures, or hurt your opponent. A really fun deck to play! Any comments/criticism accepted!

How to Play

Every card in this deck either produces tokens, sacrifices creatures, or benefits when a creature dies.

TOKEN PRODUCTION:
Dragon Fodder gives you an easy 2 tokens for cheap. Mogg War Marshal serves double duty, giving you a total of two tokens (one on entering, one on leaving), and he dies on your next upkeep, since you obviously won't be paying his echo cost (this turns on High Priest, Quest, and Rockslide Elemental.) Sengir Autocrat gives you three junk tokens and a 2/2 for 4 mana. Not too shabby.

TOKEN SACCING:
There are many ways to kill off your tokens with this deck. They can be used to give away Jinxed Idol, power up Thunder-Thrash Elder, turn on Bone Splinters and Reckless Abandon, or just be fodder for Braids. Braids is one of my favorite cards in this deck, since you will normally have enough tokens to safely sacrifice them, while your opponents is forced to sac all their creatures/lands!

Of course, your biggest win condition is going to be High Priest cranking out 5/5 flyers each turn a creature dies, which should be almost every turn. However, a huge Thunder-Thrash Elder (13/13 not uncommon) or Rockslide Elemental work just as well!

Deck discussion for B/R Token Sac (< $20)

A few suggestions...
1. Replace Rakdos guildgate with Akoum Refuge
2. Add Mortician Beetle in this deck (replace Rockslide Elemental?)
3. If you have the money to spare, I'll definitely get a few blood artists in this deck.
Overall, very nice deck! :)
