Pioneer Steal n' Sac

Main Deck (60 cards)

Sideboard (0 cards)

No sideboard found.

The owner of this deck hasn't added a sideboard, they probably should...

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.


Deck Description

Deck idea I'm working on. May need some changes, but to me this seems like a possible budget option.

Needs a little more card advantage in my opinion

How to Play

Start the game with some small creatures that replace themselves (Carrier Thrall, Grim Initiate). Use them for blocking, for sacrifice fodder later on, or wear down your opponent with some attacks if nothing else is going on.

Starting around turn 2 at the earliest or turn 4 on average, begin gaining control of your opponent's creatures, attacking with them, and then sacrificing them afterwards. Hazoret's Favor allows you to boost their creatures and sac them for free. Wear them down with Collateral Damage to the face, refill your hand with Costly Plunder, take out Planeswalkers and other threats with Spark Harvest. Yahenni is another free sac engine.

Close out the game with Demanding Dragon, Angrath life loss, and creature attacks. Hazoret's favor can potentially help end it faster even if you're targeting your own creatures. Your sac fodder often comes back anyway.

Not sure what the plan is against control. May need to dedicate the sideboard entirely to beating it.
