Main Deck (60 cards)

Sideboard (0 cards)

No sideboard found.

The owner of this deck hasn't added a sideboard, they probably should...

Submit a list of cards below to bulk import them all into your sideboard. Post one card per line using a format like "4x Birds of Paradise" or "1 Blaze", you can even enter just the card name by itself like "Wrath of God" for single cards.


Deck Description

Grave Betrayal is the star of this deck. Destroy their creatures so they can be brought back from the dead under your control.

Looking for feedback and suggestions. Not sure what to add to the sideboard either.

How to Play

You're goal is to get a Skirsdag High Priest & Blood Artist out as fast as possible followed by a Grave Betrayal.

Kill their creatures and make sure to use the Morbid effect on Skirsdag High Priest to create 5/5 flying demon tokens every time a creature dies.

Sacrifice their revived creatures to use your other creatures abilities and Bone Splinters & Altar's Reap.

Charmbreaker Devils are there to keep a unending supply of kill spells and to bring back any destroyed Grave Betrayal's.

Deck discussion for Endless Betrayal (Help Plz)

I built a deck that has almost all of the same creatures that you have and some of the spells, but I mainly focus on stealing the opponent's creatures and then sacrificing them before they can return to the opponent. http://www.mtgvault.com/tralese/decks/sacrificial-traitors/

I like where you are going, but the problem is that Grave Betrayal will come in very late in the game and until then you've had to kill his creatures without gaining the benefit of the enchantment. I would consider, therefore working on figuring out what to do about the early game. Maybe ditch the Skirsdag Cultists and focus on cheap deathtouch creatures such as Thrill-Kill Assassin or Typhoid Rats. Then replace the Disciple of Grislebrand with Vampire Nighthawks.

Bottom Line is you don't really need the sacrificial outlets, you simply have to kill his creatures and have them return beefed up under your control. That and more black creatures with deathtouch, means more chance for your Skirsdag High Priests to proc and get you 5/5 flying demons in play.

Good luck!

You helped me improve my Sacrifice deck already :) Here is my updated one that I currently own all the cards (minus the sideboard) http://www.mtgvault.com/slayus/decks/traitors-returned/

Thank you again for your help on this deck. I was trying to use as many of the cards from my sac deck as possible, but I see now that at least some deathtouch creatures would do this deck wonders!

if this wasnt standard id say add mogg canon and attrition, dominus of fealty is fun too, but sents its standard id take out 2 grave betrayals and add some act of treasons, bloodflow connoisseur to sac with, maybe add desecration demon that way if they dont want you to attack they will sac a creature then you would get it from grave betrayal
