Information

A Stonescar sacrifice deck that took me to top 5 Masters in November. Goal is to use a large number of small units and sacrifice effects to overrun or outgrind the opponent. Excellent against aggro decks since the small units trade up for theirs, and can beat midrange and control using the top end of Madness + sac outlet, Oblivion Spike, Torrent of Spiders, and biggest of all, Flamestoker.

Extremely effective in Ranked mode, its only truly bad matchups seem to be decks featuring tons of flyers. For other decks, sometimes you'll make a ton of Grenadins and swing past their blockers over and over for the win, other times you may need to hold back and chump block for a few turns until you get a big Torrent of Spiders or removal to stabilize. Recognize when to beat down and when to defend, and you have a chance against nearly anything with this deck.

The deck's biggest strength is that it makes enemy single-target removal look silly since the best thing they're removing is either a 2/2 flyer you paid 1 power for, or a 5/5 that'll be replaced next turn.

Gave it a try yesterday and went from D3-Masters with a ~70% win rate. Flamestoker is a real MVP especially when Brimstone Altar is already online.
I can't say I encountered a bad match up, aggro looses to the wide-board & most midrange can't deal with multiple 1/1 spiders.
