The owner of this deck hasn't added a sideboard, they probably should...
Start typing a card name and use the auto-complete feature to quickly select the card you're trying to add. Enter a quantity and add that card to your sideboard!
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.
Ah... Demonic Pact! How I've longed to break you. Ok, so this doesn't actually break the card. Yet. But that doesn't mean I'm going to stop trying to figure out how.
So the idea, as most seem to know by now, is to "donate" a fatal pact, using harmless offering as the new donate card, hence the mardu. However, I feel that running 4 donate cards in the deck is a little much, considering the only thing im going to donate is the pact and there is a very sensitive time constraint on it. My alternate win con is starfield of nyx. Turning Demonic Pact into a recurrable 4/4 can do the trick. If you need to get rid of the pact you can use one pact to negate out the other dealing four damage and then bring it back for a new fresh pact. Sounds pretty great yes? If that fails... Lilly can tutor up an offering or she can go all necro and "bring out your Dead" (Monty Python reference for those of you who are familiar.) There is plenty of removal here also that can act as a fail safe. The deck is built mainly around enchantments as a means to get the Starfield on line. Also Demonic Pact needs time to stew till it reaches its deadly potential , hence the stall tatics like ghostly prison and blind obedience. So then.... How bout that side board eh? Suggestions? Cause i'm always terrible at side boarding... (I'm also open to main deck suggestions, because I know this list aint perfect either.)

Before I read the how to play I saw harmless offering and knew you were onto something here, makes me wonder if we could find more cards that could pass it over to the opponents and maybe try making a hot potato deck.

The cards I know of are Daring thief, Bazaar trader, and donate. The first two are modern legal, but if you are playing kitchen table then they all could work. Im currently in the process of proxying the deck, so I can test it in my play group. if it does as well as I think it can, I will probably drop the cash on it. Which is fairly low... I think? Several of my commander decks run upwards of $300.... makes me think I may have an addiction problem.
Well everyone is addicted to something rather they know it or not.I am gonna try to put together some sort of deck like this, when I finish I will link it in comments if you are interested.Thanks for the idea I love it.
sounds good. and please do. I love looking at similar deck ideas. Puschkin made a vintage style Demonic Pact called Faustus. You could also look that up for some ideas. Especially if you wanna go the hot potato route.
http://www.mtgvault.com/trackingdevice/decks/hot-pactato/ Thanks for the tip, here is what I have so far I will edit it as I test it out and see what it falls short on.
You're talking about magic addiction problems XD i just bought and completed my collection of onslaught/ khans fetchlands.
I wish I had money for that... it sucks having ideas that you wanna try but can't afford to blow cash on.
right the only reason i can is because i recently got a job. Rn i am trying to complete my collection of lands, then build either jund or finish naya burn.
