Deck Description

The upcoming card for Magic 2015, Waste Not was the foundation and basis for this deck, along with an interest in building a workable discard deck.

The four Ordeal of Erebos are subbed in for the Waste Not's, for those who are interested in Waste Not and are unaware of what it does, the following link will provide you with the aforementioned information:

How to Play

Turn 1 I generally aim to set up for a Crypt Ghast off a Dark Ritual and a second mana turn two, drop a necropotence for draw, drop a dauthi slayer off a dark ritual, or drop a liliana's caress/waste not followed by a funeral charm. generally in that order of likeliness.

Turn two i get that crypt ghast on the field (optimal)
Turn three i drop my third mana and play either desecration demon or sangromancer, followed by the other turn four (again, optimal) these two cards have absolutely wonderful synergy with each other, since whenever a creature is sacrificed to feed desecration demon, sangromancer gives you three life as a bonus. from there i usually try to get a quietus spike on the field (equipped to sangromancer or dauthi slayer) and proceed to force as much discard as possible.

If necropotence is involved in the picture is the only time i generally play noetic scales, that way i can draw an excess of cards so my creatures don't go back to my hand, and (if played right) it will send all of theirs back. giving me an open field to play against and an excellent opportunity to play monomania and gain excessive amounts of life off of that sangromancer.

Testing so far has been against a mono green aggro/devotion deck, against which i'm winning approximately 40-50% of the time (in case you're interested in how this actually plays).
