Point of deck:
Get creatures into play via Goryo's Vengeance.
Attack with said creatures.
Sacrifice creatures via Grater Good or via Plunge into Darkness to get graveyard effect, and draw cards / gain life.
Card choices:
Buried Alive: Get them away from my deck so I can Vengeance them into play.
Oversold Cemetary: Get's creature back into hand so I can hardcast in the event that I can't find a vengeance. Also gets Birds back for chump blocking.
DT: ...
Plunge into Darkness: Good if I'm up against a wall and need to gain life, or can be used to sac creatures for their grave effect.
Dark Ritual: ...
Goryo's Vengeance: Core card.
BoP: Accel.
Greater Good: Good for card drawing, good for sacrificing Dragons for effects, good for dumping dragons into grave.
Lotus Petal: No power.
Sol ring: Accel.
Isochron Scepter: For Vengeance or Plunge ... very useful thus far.
Yosei: tap your opponents down, stalling.
Keiga: I like your creature better than mine.
The Unspeakable: Gimme back my Vengeance.
Kokusho: Lifegain, Kill.
Ryusei: Board control.
Land choices:
I needed Green more than other colors, so I put in Tainted Woods ... the other lands are there just in case I need to cast one of the creatures.
Other notes:
I only own Ancestral Recall, but I didn't put it in ... I should ... either way, no other power
Any suggestions?
