MTG Salvation

I've been testing a junk aristocrat variant including varolz and im pretty excited about the deck.



Me and a few friends have been testing this list out and think it may be the real deal. Having necromancer with Athreos out is almost a lock with a few other dudes on board. Varolz is awesome as hes a sac outlet and a resilient threat. The Precinct Captains could possibly be Pain Seers. Also the manabase may need some tweaking. Started with 4 Mana Confluence but while I've found it to be an awesome mana fixer, it can get quite painful next to 12 shocklands.

The deck looks sweet!

Is there reason why there's a single temple of malice in the deck?

I REALLY wanna give varolz a shot. What I may do is is this...

-1 Hero's Downfall
-1 Brimaz, King of Oreskos

+2 Varolz, the Scar-Striped

EDIT: From testing I have found that I am paying a lot of life in lands through shocks and mana confluence. I am going to try this...

-1 Mana Confluence
+1 Swamp

Was supposed to be Temple of Malady.

Just got done testing Varolz and he was pretty sweet. Sacing humans EOT with an Xathrid out on the field is just frightening.

Get a 2/2 zombie that can attack and can scavenge before combat too.

I recommend a 2-3 of in the deck if you can fit him.

Unfortunately, 3 colors simply just wont work. I've tried guys. Going 3 color hurts the curve so much...

Now it's simply just BW, OP is updated.

Added, obzedats for late game.

Just tested against America Control, Went 2-1.

This deck is excellent against control.

Put this deck together at last minute last night. Went 4-0 in our FNM. Beat a goofy enchantments deck, "Hydra's, U/W devotion, and a mirror match (his was more weenie rush with no end game). I liked this deck quite a bit. I was a huge player of Aristocrats last summer. People hated me
