Notes:
This is my first submission for LadyGrixis' Altar Reap challenge. I will be making improvements to it as time goes on, and I may actually try building it.

The whole idea of the deck is to get out creatures, sac them, then bring them back with Karador or by other means. I threw a few Treefolk in there to reveal with Murmuring Bosk, and some other utility creatures. It's still a bit scattered, but I'll hone it with time. I literally brewed this in two hours.

Feel free to comment and make suggestions!

ApexPredator

{Mimic Vat} would be good in this. Also possibly {Birthing Pod}

Brawler_1337

Indeed, those are cards I did not consider. Like I said, this deck was the result of two hours worth of brewing.

Double-O-Scotch


Brawler_1337

Updated with a few more sac outlets and better synergy.

With all this graveyard garbage, {tarmogoyf} could be a reasonable 4/5 for 2 almost all the time.
While goyf is good in normal constructed formats he is a small impact card in edh. I tried running him in my karador and he was usually quite useless.

Brawler_1337

Added {Cauldron of Souls} to the mix. I like the shenanigans that could ensue from it.

Brawler_1337

Added in a {Heartmender}. I tried it out, and it put in some serious work for my sac outlets. The fact that it removes its own counter makes it a good sac target. Also, it helps out my {Cauldron Haze} and {Cauldron of Souls}.

FlickerYourOwnIdentity

I feel {Sewer Nemisis} to be amazing in These types of decks.  Target yourself, and now you have a huge fatty.

Brawler_1337

Maybe. It seems a tad slow, but maybe.

A couple more things. One, {Skullclamp} is definitely in the deck, but I just can't figure out what I took out. I put it in as a last-minute addition when playing the deck tonight because I was one proxy short. I just don't know what didn't get included in its stead. As for Skullclamp itself, I am amazed at the value it generated in tonight's game, even with only a couple of uses. Also, {Solemn Simulacrum} deserves a medal for how much work it put out that game.

Another thing to note about the deck list: The lands don't have to be Snow-Covered. I just put them as Snow-Covered because evidently mono green players would play {Extraplanar Lens} on their {Snow-Covered Forests}. Having Snow-Covereds yourself makes it so the benefit isn't totally one-sided.

Brawler_1337

Update: I added more basics, plus some creatures to search them out. I also removed the Cabal Coffers engine (since I'm not that much leaning towards black), and i replaced Yawgmoth's Will with Skullclamp.

Brawler_1337

Another update. Added a few more grave control cards to speed up the deck.

ApexPredator

{Wurmcoil Engine} is great in this kind of deck.

adventus

What am I missing?  Why the snow covered basics?

Brawler_1337

The snow-covered basics, as mentioned earlier, are not necessary. I built this deck IRL, and I'm using regular basics. I just put snow-covered basics in this version of the deck because of decks that run {Extraplanar Lens} and snow-covereds to get one-sided mana doubling.
