Information

Warning: There is a high density of memes ahead. If you're looking for a simple deck that only has one main axis of winning, you've come to the wrong place. If you're looking for a crazy deck that hardly even knows what life total it will end at and sometimes appears to have a death wish, then read on, as this is a treat of a deck.

So, this list is centralized around Bloodrite Kalis, a card discarded in the past, and tends to come up as a meme. But it's essential here, being a sacrifice outlet, of all things, as well as a very nice weapon to bash whatever's giving this deck problems at the time. It's not uncommon for that to be the opponent's face, as well, given every other part of the deck. As for the other relics, Rat Cage is another beautiful thing that makes every one of these relics produce rats, which more often than not are promptly either sacrificed, or hurled at the face with the help of a Shrine to Karvet. Reactor Forge is also there to just provide obscene amounts of power, with various ways to take advantage of the face damage. It will also destroy you, so making sure to take advantage of the power is vital to winning.

The entire rest of the deck is sacrifice, sacrifice, and things to be sacrificed. It takes a very keen eye to know exactly how many things to be sacrificed, but the number is usually two to all of the things in most turns, varying wildly depending on the matchup. Blightmoth will ease the aggro matchups greatly, while the sacrifices of Strange Burglar and Scraptank will give control decks headaches, not to mention the constant threat of a Kalis smacking their face.

The Market is also interesting in a number of ways. Wyatt's Junkyard is usually the grab, specifically for reloading your hand. Flame Blast and Vicious Rejuvenation are finishers in specific instances,both when you have entirely too much power. Open Contract can keep annoying units off your back, namely Rolant, and Brimstone Altar is there for more repeatable sacrifice.

If that explanation didn't teach you how this runs, then a game certainly will. I'll likely keep visiting this one, as I'm very happy with the ravenous style in which it plays.

Managed to 7-0 the Eternal Celebration event with it. https://imgur.com/a/xwOdU2L Don't have a deck tracker but here's a screen grab of my match history.

Oh gosh, I'm glad this brew had some success in the Celebration Event. Hearing that made all this worth it. Perhaps I'll try again at it myself.
