Deck Description

This is a deck I've been working on for a while. It is primarily a black/green deck with red splashed in for use of Into the Core (sideboard).

Its tough to categorize what this deck is. Its not 100% swarm but it attempts to have a small swarm. It does rely on combo's heavily. The win con-makes it very stompy, and its theme is sacrifice.

Anyways, here's a description of how it works. Create your mini swarm of eldrazi spawn with either awakening zone, or sacrificing your creatures while a pawn of ulamog is in play.

The creature's you've sacrificed should be pumping up a blade of the bloodchief.

The spawn are used as: meat shields, mana for The Butcher of Malakir, Black Sun's Zenith and Beastmaster's ascension.

Creature's designated for sacrifice: Bloodghast, Ornithopter, Viridian Emissary.

Any advice or critique's would be very welcome

Why black Sun's Zenith u will kill all of your creature with it.

+1/+1 creatures directly counteract -1/-1 counters. So, as long as I have a blade of the bloodchief out, I will not kill the creature to which it is equipped. If its ornithropter, oh well, same with bloodghast.

Black Sun's isn't to be used extensively, just when needed, and I have means to counteract it.
