Deck Description

Updated version of my Sacrifice deck

This version of my Sacrifice deck focus on eliminating the opponent by crippling them from lose of creature control, lose of land and card from their hands. It is designed to run more expediently than it predecessor. It accomplished this by the additions of Skullclamp, bloodghast, fume spitter, smallpox, and despise. These and all the low cost cards shut down your enemy on turn one with little chance of stopping the relentless balance of speed and control.

>Update >> Skullclamp has been replaced with culling dais. Making this deck legal in extended format. Reassembling skeleton can be replaced with nether traitor(which makes the deck run faster), but will no longer be extended legal, though modern is still playable.

as always please help and give suggestions.

Deck discussion for Damnation (sacrifice v2)

this looks a much better version i like your set of creatures a lot they all kill and all work well with the clamps and fit a low mana curve allowing this deck to cope with the smallpox, 20 creatures should be enough even though you are sacrifing as you have added the card draw with the clamps,

only good to say from me !, well done, maybe skinrenders in sideboard right at the top of the mana but also an effective kill, and a 2/2.

well done on this version i hope it gets a lot of looks and likes i certainly feell it should.

I like it a lot. Its very similar to my sacrifice deck, although I suspect yours is better. The only card I'd consider dropping is Fume Spitter. I know its great sacrifice fodder for your Smallpox, but I'm just not sure if you're going to see much benefit of weakening creatures you're probably going to end up forcing your opponent to sacrifice anyway. The deck would run great with 61 cards. However, if you are looking for another 1 CC creature, you might consider Carrion Feeder. With Bloodghast and Nether Traitor you have a lot of recyclable creatures. Put them to use by making Carrion Feeder huge!

Hey thanks man, ive been working hard on it. The fume spitter is in there because its inexpensive, can get ride of pesky 1/1 and when i lose a creature when grave pact is on the field they have to sacrifice a card also. So if i sacrifice spitter and kill a 1/1, then since i lost a creature grave pact makes them sacrifice another creature and ideally they are forced to sacrifice a better creature since their 1/1 already gone.

I didn't think of carrion feeder. I might have to slip him in if I find the fume spitters slacking him in. Though for right now i think Ill leave fume spitter in there.

Thanks for the suggestions and help, ill check out your sacrifice deck

Cheers for commenting on my deal, I'm happy to to the same with this one. It looks a good quick deck the obvious thought is always if it doesn't take control early would it burn out later in a game. A good creature to come out later in the game would be sheoldred the whispering one possibly what you think ?

No problem and thanks. And the hope is that they cant really get going enough to loose control. By turn 4 i should have grave pact out and there after ever creature that i lose they lose one too. So ideally i should be able to quickly drain their life points with mortician beetle, bloodghast, and nether traitor. My previous version of the deck did run 2 sheoldred the wispering one. But i feel like he would more likely than not be a dead draw
I decided to sideboard him for now. If the deck proves to have less control than i think ill put him in.

i decided to switch out the skullclamps for culling dias, they work kinda the same. I would sacrifice my bloodghasts and nether traitors until the culling dias had 7 or eight counters and then draw 7 new cards. It still works well, obviously it no skullclamp bloodghast combo, but it still works.

Im trying to get this deck legal in extended. Right now all cards are except for nether traitor and cruel edict. Any other option anyone can think off? If not the deck still runs in modern.

Nice deck here. Actually, you could also use lashwrithe, as you saw on my mono black suicide, or any artifact with living weapon to get a nice advantage: you merely lose a 0/0 germ and still get the equip while your opponent loses something more valuable.
Leyline of sanctity is a fine card, but in this deck you depend entirely on have it on your starting hand in order to get it to the field, instead you could take something more useful like hex parasite, in case you encounter too many planeswalkers around, especially jace the mind sculptor
