I honestly think these servitude combo decks need the fourth copy of {Immortal Servitude}. Otherwise I think it's a cool deck.
Thanks! Yeah I can probably tweek it to add the fourth. There's another great list for this style of deck (BUG Immortal) which is more reliant on the immortal combo, this deck can survive without the use of servitude, servitude is just the cherry on top/game changer to this deck. :p

I tried a similar deck on a fnm and went 3-1 lost to a naya blitz

Hmm do you have a deck list you could put up? And what cards would you recommend for an Aggro deck then? (Sideboard)

i would check out the list that just won the scg - optimizing  {Varolz, the Scar-Striped}. solid choice to go with your guys for scavenge and sac outlets with souls.

Sweet! Do you know what the decks called?

JordanCirk

Have you looked at  {Killing Wave}?

I haven't been playing magic long but wouldn't a white deck filled with protection from black cancel a hell of a lot of this? Lol

I like it, but with cartel aristocrat and the bloodthrone vampire they jut sacrifice the creatures either way, but ill test out killing wave. Seems pretty good!

Can you explain in more detail? Not being mean I'm just trying to understand.

Any deck specifically tailored for protection from your deck colors will beat your deck.. Thats why multiple colors are best. However, decks like that usually dont exist

True unless u play like me lol. I got too many decks with too many stops n goes. Why I got into magic. Love the game always a way. But thk u both. According to rules even if it's mixed color as long as it has a color u picked to block the card is no good cause it contains picked color.

True you might be able to stop a certain color, but this immortal servitude deck doesn't have to even attack you to win. The big life drain is when you have 1-2 blood artists out and you use either bloodthrone vamp or cartel aristocrat to sacrifice all your creatures/tokens so they loose a ton, you gain a ton, then next turn use immortal servitude to bring them all back and finish then off

The deck with {Varolz, the Scar-Striped} is Junk Aristocrats and is awesome.  It drops the {Immortal Servitude} for Varolz, {Young Wolf} and {Doomed Traveler}.
Right as I saw this post I'm watching some game play of junk aristocrats haha. Looks like a good deck and pretty solid.
