Deck discussion for Ritual Sacrifice

Um, well there's a few things I can think of to suggest. I'm guessing culling dais is the key card here like vat was in in the last one. If so, (and anyway in my opinion), not enough 1 drops. When you draw those cards I would wanna play ALL on the same turn. Candidates for the slot could be; death greeter, black cat, and I'm right in thinking you can sacrifice a creature (as an instant) that you've already targeted to sacrifice, then I'll not list them all but death cultist, shield mate etc... (just off the top of my head). Innocent blood would be an excellent 1 drop in this kind of deck too. Apart from that, maybe more undying or persist creatures (redcapp for example), and all those big white spells that chuck a million soldiers into play all at once. Board wipers?

actually, culling dais wasn't intended as the key card but rather as a way to refill my hand and as another engine for sacrifice. blood artist, bloodflow connoisseur, and skirsdag high priest are the key cards. I like the idea of more board wipe and mass token spells i don't really know what to take out for it

Ok, well that clears things up a bit. Let's begin how we did last time. Firstly, I would take one of the sorins out for the reasons we discussed before. For him I would suggest 1 damnation, and 1 wrath of god. Board wipers sorted. For this reason, I would lose the flayers, cause you won't need spot removal anymore. If its not that important, take out one or two of the dais, or a couple of the less important creatures, like butcher ghoul. This will allow space for a playset of either conqueror's pledge, or nomads' assembly. Personally I'd go with pledge, but you could try two of each... You know, I'd probably take out all the ghouls and all of the dais for a set of elixir of immortality. No draw, but limitless creatures to keep on sacrificing. What u reckon?

Alright, i'm gonna keep it a standard build. i guess i should have mentioned that. So, i took out the ghouls and the dais and one sorin and all the spot removal for day of judgement instead of wrath of god and 3 increasing devotion and one white sun's zenith instead of conqueror's pledge or nomads' assembly. i also put in solemn simulacrum instead of elixir of immortality because i need a little speed boost and unburial rites to retrieve the more important creatures after i wipe the board. finally, i pulled one necrotic ooze for another skirsdag high priest

Yeah, wrath/judgement same thing. I know it affects your mana symbol occurrence, but did you not want a damnation in place of one, incase you got no plains. There's more chance you have black mana anyways. W zenith is good, shoulda thought about that myself. I know they're only to sacrifice, but had you consider entreat the angels? If you can cast it for it's miracle cost its way better than zenith! Plus you get beat down options as well. As one of my friends always says 'control the skies and you control the battlefield!' u could do with some anti flying anyways cause otherwise only the board wipers can offer you any help there. You should at least play test it and worst case scenario assign it to the sideboard.

Damnation isn't standard and i've already got a bunch of board wipe in here. I considered entreat the angels, but I like white sun's better because it reshuffles after its played and its an instant so i can play it at the end of my opponent's turn and have a bunch of attackers ready on my turn.
