I created this deck and played a couple of games with it this weekend. I thought it was a fun keyword deck but I noticed I have a lot of sacrifice interaction, and not a lot of ways to sacrifice things. I'd love some help with getting this deck focused up a little bit.

I had fun with keyword sharing via Odric, and Akroma boosted up all of my creatures by an average of +5/+5 each combat.

I see the value of aristocrat, especially with Baron Sengir and his ability to get bigger. I don't know if I want to lean in hard, but I would love to see what it would look like.

Do you mind taking a look and helping me out a little bit?

overall curve is very high and not too much synergy

#

other than rcreature abilities, its kinda the go wide good stuff on board

very split strategy, if you want to focus around baron sengir it may need somewhat of a overhaul

Fully agree with the mana curve, and the cost reduction artifacts helped a bit with that. Hrm, I'll have to give it a little more thought. One thing that did happen is that lifelink went kind of crazy so I might add [[Aetherflux Reservoir]] into the mix as another win condition.

Are there any other interesting sac outlets that aren't the bog standard [[Ashnod's Altar]] or equivalent?

i dont really thing what you need is addxing more but rather finding cuts. putting overlaps to pull it tighter

#

or overhaul to start over with a different focus

#

there are many sac outlets but they arent really meant for the go wide beat face type of deck/ boardstate
