Title: Sac Benefits
Post by: Spikepit on December 12, 2011, 09:46:52 AM
I'm looking for W, B or Artifact that gives you benefits for sacrificing creatures? Maybe something other than life gain?

And yes, I've done a data base search and came up not much in my half asleep state. ðŸ˜"

Those are all fantastic suggestions. I already have {Culling Dias} and a few of the others and {Throne of Bone} and {Goblin Bombardment} unfortunately won't fit. But the rest kick ass harder than Hitgirl!

The deck I'm working on is a Commander based on {Teysa, Orzhov Scion} and other things like {Shattered Crypt}. I'm at 96 cards and convinced myself I need a greater reason for all the sacrifices. All the cards I have are gonna give me 5000 life, in which {Felidar Sovereign} or {Serra Ascendant} will secure a win for me, but I was hoping for a "...whenever a creature is sacrificed..." ability. ðŸ˜,,

It's a shame sacing one creature doesn't trigger multiple card's triggers. ðŸ˜'

Something like {Savra, Queen of the Golgari}, but on color?

We were all on the wrong track.  ;)

Anything that cares when a creature dies:

{Grave Pact}
{Twilight Drover} if it's tokens dying
{Unruly Mob}

If you put a {Heartstone} and a {Sliver Queen} and a some other slivers you can have infinite anything you desire aka life damage and more...

Whoa!  Wrong deck.  ;)  This is a Commander deck starring {Teysa, Orzhov Scion}, so only Black and White spells.

How about cards that have a death trigger, like {Archon of Justice}?

Fantastic suggestions! I love {Unruly Mob}, I can't believe I didn't think of it!!! The Archon was a rad suggestion too! Cheers fellas! Once deck is complete, with post with haste. 😃
