Hey you’re hacked

I think it has been like two years since I posted anything on here, and I got like 3 whispers and an ask letting me know it had been hacked. That's pretty awesome of all of you, instead of just ignoring the account. Much love.

Gonna be difficult for this to not be the best common in the set. (Source)

I love new lighting bolts

I wish it was an instant. I’d love to run this in burn and cast it in response to them playing a shockland

They could always fetch during your turn to grab the land to kill Guide or something. It’s also just pretty easy to turn into lava spike in burn. I never play burn and feel like this answer should be obvious, but does it actually need more bolts? xD

The more bolts you run, the closer to a pure combo deck it becomes and the easier it becomes to deal 18 damage by turn 3

That makes sense, I guess I just don't know what the decks takes out to put more stuff in.

Abzan Sac Tool Box

@colorguardian10 requested this list a good while back, and after fiddling with it for quite a bit I let it slip my mind. Upon coming back to working on it, I again felt like I was being drug down several different paths and was having trouble deciding which was appropriate. I finally settled on something that looks to generate value off of tool-box style creatures it can sacrifice and loop by reanimating them. There’s definitely more token heavy and sac heavy ways to build this list, but I think this one looks super fun and hope you do too, Color. 

Creatures (26)

1 Elenda, the Dusk Rose 2 Izoni, Thousand-Eyed 2 Jadelight Ranger 2 Knight of Autumn 1 Thallid Soothsayer 4 Llanowar Elves 4 Merfolk Branchwalker 4 Militia Bugler 2 Ravenous Chupacabra 2 Seekers’ Squire 2 Whisper, Blood Liturgist  

Spells (11) 

2 Arguel’s Blood Fast  2 Cast Down  2 Find // Finality  2 Journey to Eternity  1 Vivien Reid  2 Vraska, Golgari Queen 

Lands (23)

3 Forest   2 Memorial to Folly  4 Overgrown Tomb  3 Sunpetal Grove  3 Swamp  1 Plains  4 Temple Garden  3 Woodland Cemetery 

Militia Bugler hitting pretty much every creature I wanted to include in this deck is one of the main reasons it wound up down this path as opposed to the other options. It just generates loads of value. Whisper is one of our ways to re-use our creatures and does it while placing others in the yard to re-use later. Looping Izoni or Chupacabra or Knight of Autumn even just a couple times can be devastating. Izoni just does everything you’d want a card to be doing in a deck like this.

I just adore this entire cycle of cards that transform into lands. These two are both phenomenal in this list, being relevant both before and after they flip. Blood Fast is very powerful in a lot of matchups, as any deck not pressuring your life total gets punished by you getting to trade it in for cards. Journey is pretty easy to flip, and when we start being able to sac and reanimate cards every turn we should be able to drown our opponents. 

The deck likely sides heavily into removal. Cards like Vraska’s Contempt and Eldest Reborn are solid. I like playing a playset of Duress in any sideboard I can.

I just wonder what gets dropped for Teysa Karlov…

I figure this style of list will warp a lot with the release of both Teysa and Afterlife allowing for more positive ways to sacrifice stuff. I'd probably do a total rework of the list instead of a few replacements, and I might just once the set is spoiled. I think Abzan Sacrifice gets a lot better with the Orzhov additions.
