I was going to say it's limited by the life loss, but almost every single [[blood artist]] type effect offsets the life loss and you probably want one out when you start your combo anyways.
[[Marneus Calgar]] With [[Ophiomancer]] or [[Fairy artisans]] so stupid. Draw a card off snake or artisan token, sac it before the next opponents turn to draw a card off the treasure and have treasures of to cast the cards you just drew? Sickening. As if aristocrats needed better sac engines. Buddy was just mentioning that he thinks it goes infinite with [[Blood artist]] + [[Chitterfang]] in [[Korvold]]
Was looking for the inevitable Chatterfang comment.
Goes infinite with our squirrel friend and some form of life gain (such as from your average aristocrat effect or [[Prosperous Innkeeper]] ) ...but that's hardly noteworthy because a lot token creators can go infinite with Chatterfang with the right conditions.
To be fair, [[Phyrexian Altar]] enables most of those combos already, and in more decks. Though this being more visible via spoiler, plus a more recent set, will likely have it showing up more, if only 'cause it's likely to be cheaper (though perhaps not proper cheap)
I've been looking for stuff to maybe a mono-black edh artifact token deck to abuse [[mirkwood bats]] and [[marionette master]]. This goes on the running list and can even go directly into a giant [[exsanguinate]] to recover the life loss or [[torment of Hailfire]] to finish everyone off if they aren't already dead.
I know Necropotence is broken. But this ain't necro. Its a card that can kill you if you don't more life than opponent or life gain in combo, a noted weakness Phyrexian Altar doesn't have that weakness.
Turning your infinite combos into whatever your life total is minus one is a downgrade.
I just want to sac Gravecrawler, use the treasure to recast Gravecrawler, and loop that one hundred times to exile my opponents' libraries with Bitter Ordeal.
Is that *so wrong?*
Sac Outlet.
No Once Per Turn.
Creates a Treasure.
Zombie Tribal.
That Doesn’t Have to Tap to Sac.
Combos with \[\[Gravecrawler\]\].
This is just pitiless plunderer but it cuts to the chase by also being the sac outlet and costing less mana. Also creature types are insanely relevant. This card is probably too good.
The zombie analogue to \[\[Skirk Prospector\]\], so naturally it costs 2 more and you have to pay life.
I admire how the zombie design flowchart seems to be:
1. Break Gravecrawler.....AGAIN
2. Enable a combo, but don't fucking dare ask for a payoff
3. Unplayable
Spot fucking on, there are 3 types of zombies:
1. Ones that break Gravecrawler.
2. Ones that help you break Gravecrawler.
3. Ones that do not break Gravecrawler therefore are not good.
While it doesn't immediately get out of hand in the deck, I need it for [[Thalisse, Reverent Medium]]. Saccing tokens for treasures which make more tokens on the endstep, and with the myriad of life gain effects I have, this is pretty negligible. I'm in love
So a Phyrexian Altar that is more searchable and does artifact things and makes more sacrifice triggers. The only downside is the 1 life which means it doesn’t go *fully* infinite with the same things as Altar unless there is life gain involved.
For the lazy combo players out there:
Goes infinite with grave crawler and:
Aetherflux reservoir,
Blood artist,
Zulaport Cutthroat,
Bastion of Remembrance, or
Cruel celebrant.
Get this and crawler into the graveyard for an easy victimize or persist reanimation.
In short, this card is insane.
My prosh deck sees this in many lights as card draw [[villis, broker of blood]] extra mana [[pitiless plunderer]] making my opponents quit [[malkir butcher]] [[dictate of erebos]] [[grave pact]] and least but not least a win con [[revel in riches]] your welcome for all the future problems known as [[blood painter]] and [[zulaport cutthroat]] enjoyers
I’ve been wanting to build aristocrats for years, but I just haven’t been able to find any useful sac outlets and it’s kinda held me back. I’m glad they’re finally adding some support for the archetype, this one might finally push the strategy into a competitive space!
/s
In all seriousness this card is hype as hell and I’m actually stoked on it 😭
Nice that as a solo card the treasure tokens stick around until you are ready to use them, unlike the mana from Phyrexian altar.
So if you are running something like Meren as your commander and are just sacrificing creatures early game to try and get your experience counters up to get the most out of her ability later, you'll have that pool of mana (from the treasure tokens) to dip into whenever you want/need them
I always wanted my phyrexian altar to also be a goblin/zombie/wizard and make artifact tokens and be easily recurrable and be a three mana 3/3 and also combo with things that want you to pay/lose life and etc...
I disagree. This does let you bank the mana for a later turn (and go nearly infinite with Chatterfang), but Altar doesn't cost life and is colorless, so it's easier to cast. Also, creature vs noncreature makes this much easier to remove. I'd say they're about even, at best.
Altar is also a mana ability and this is not, which is relevant in some corner cases (like effects that shut off non-mana abilities).
OR
If you're a degenerate like me, effects that double non-mana activated abilities >:)
Alternatively, this is a wizard which let's you have access to even more ways to clone them or double triggers. This let's you do some really silly degenerate in a dumb Johnny way stuff like that - or if you want to be degenerate in more efficient ways, you get a couple good wizard type tutors to get this or the other wizards that might play into other combo lines... Or to tutor for a wizard that can chain to tutor for something else you need.
It's a Goblin, which again gets some more type specific tutors - which can also be used to grab the other goblin pieces I often have in =>RB decks I imagine this going into and gives you additional "goblin devotion" if you're including cards that want that.
And it being a zombie too - it's beautiful.
This is going to go in most =>B decks with a sacrifice theme I build. It not being a mana ability will definitely be relevant as that has happened with Pitiless lines similarly, but goddamn. I'm stoked for this one.
I don't even want to combo it, I just like it essentially being a skull clamp that gains you a mana instead of spending one in [[korvold, fae cursed king]]
>no tap symbol >no once per turn >Pete Venters art 
And three types that are all pretty commonly relevant to the kind of lists I've had that I immediately want to put this in.
I hope it gets the retro frame treatment
> no non-token
Um, akshually, there is a tap symbol in the reminder text.
We need more Pete Venters art in Magic
Looking forward to people saying "We finally broke Warren Soultrader" in spoiler threads for years to come.
Might be the most heavily played commander card from this set. It combos with SO many things.
I was going to say it's limited by the life loss, but almost every single [[blood artist]] type effect offsets the life loss and you probably want one out when you start your combo anyways.

Life loss? Oh no no no no. In EDH Orzhov aristocrats can still gain life from this quite consistently.
At my tables we say "life is a resource. You only need 1 to win ". Cards like this 100% are free real estate at my legs. Garauntee 39 mana.

Combo with a ham sandwich
Quick, now's the time to buy out foil Ham Sandwiches.
vegan players in a shambles
Combos with a ham sandwich; goes infinite with two ham sandwiches.
I need a playset. It's basically a phyrexian altar on a creature.
It's better imo, a little easier to remove, but you get a token, artifact, and an etb as well.
Also more easily recurred!
But it also slowly kills you. Which limits the combos a lot more if don't also have an engine to gain life
If you can't win by the point you hit 4 life (gotta make sure a lightning bolt can't kill me) you aren't using this card right.
You probably think Necropotence is a bad card.
I know Necropotence is broken. But this ain't necro. Its a card that can kill you if you don't more life than opponent or life gain in combo, a noted weakness Phyrexian Altar doesn't have that weakness. Turning your infinite combos into whatever your life total is minus one is a downgrade.
Might actually swap out the altar for this in my Chatterfang deck because it will create a loop with one squirrel.
Might as well play both I'd imagine
That's probably the right play, but man is it so hard to find cuts at this point.
3 relevant creature types also makes this card spicy

I just want to sac Gravecrawler, use the treasure to recast Gravecrawler, and loop that one hundred times to exile my opponents' libraries with Bitter Ordeal. Is that *so wrong?*

 Sac Outlet. No Once Per Turn. Creates a Treasure. Zombie Tribal. That Doesn’t Have to Tap to Sac. Combos with \[\[Gravecrawler\]\].

What if Phyrexian Altar incidentally triggered a bunch of other stuff, just for funsies?
Me and who.
This is just pitiless plunderer but it cuts to the chase by also being the sac outlet and costing less mana. Also creature types are insanely relevant. This card is probably too good.
This card is going to go in so many decks

Can search it out in Chatterfang too, don’t even need the gravecrawler
Dang I missed this was a zombie when it got leaked. Very nice.
The zombie analogue to \[\[Skirk Prospector\]\], so naturally it costs 2 more and you have to pay life. I admire how the zombie design flowchart seems to be: 1. Break Gravecrawler.....AGAIN 2. Enable a combo, but don't fucking dare ask for a payoff 3. Unplayable

Spot fucking on, there are 3 types of zombies: 1. Ones that break Gravecrawler. 2. Ones that help you break Gravecrawler. 3. Ones that do not break Gravecrawler therefore are not good.
I mean it’s really easy to break gravecrawler
So this is like the 4th card?
The effect is crazy good, but also the creature types?? This thing slots into so many decks.

Do you want combos? Because that’s how you get combos
So a Phyrexian Altar that is more searchable and does artifact things and makes more sacrifice triggers. The only downside is the 1 life which means it doesn’t go *fully* infinite with the same things as Altar unless there is life gain involved.
Man, I wish more modern mtg art looked like this. Pete venters rules.
For the lazy combo players out there: Goes infinite with grave crawler and: Aetherflux reservoir, Blood artist, Zulaport Cutthroat, Bastion of Remembrance, or Cruel celebrant. Get this and crawler into the graveyard for an easy victimize or persist reanimation. In short, this card is insane.

nice way to mitigate a board wipe. "Oh, you wiping the board because of my 20 zombies? welp, I guess I'll respond with making 20 treasures then."
So, we want yawgmoth at home
Oh my god we finally broke [[Gravecrawler]] and [[Zulaport Cutthroat]] / [[Blood Artist]]

Nice that as a solo card the treasure tokens stick around until you are ready to use them, unlike the mana from Phyrexian altar. So if you are running something like Meren as your commander and are just sacrificing creatures early game to try and get your experience counters up to get the most out of her ability later, you'll have that pool of mana (from the treasure tokens) to dip into whenever you want/need them
A better [[phyrexian altar]] 💀
I always wanted my phyrexian altar to also be a goblin/zombie/wizard and make artifact tokens and be easily recurrable and be a three mana 3/3 and also combo with things that want you to pay/lose life and etc...
I disagree. This does let you bank the mana for a later turn (and go nearly infinite with Chatterfang), but Altar doesn't cost life and is colorless, so it's easier to cast. Also, creature vs noncreature makes this much easier to remove. I'd say they're about even, at best.
Altar is also a mana ability and this is not, which is relevant in some corner cases (like effects that shut off non-mana abilities). OR If you're a degenerate like me, effects that double non-mana activated abilities >:)
Alternatively, this is a wizard which let's you have access to even more ways to clone them or double triggers. This let's you do some really silly degenerate in a dumb Johnny way stuff like that - or if you want to be degenerate in more efficient ways, you get a couple good wizard type tutors to get this or the other wizards that might play into other combo lines... Or to tutor for a wizard that can chain to tutor for something else you need. It's a Goblin, which again gets some more type specific tutors - which can also be used to grab the other goblin pieces I often have in =>RB decks I imagine this going into and gives you additional "goblin devotion" if you're including cards that want that. And it being a zombie too - it's beautiful. This is going to go in most =>B decks with a sacrifice theme I build. It not being a mana ability will definitely be relevant as that has happened with Pitiless lines similarly, but goddamn. I'm stoked for this one.

Phyrexian Altar is still better but it’s nice to have other options for sac outlets.
My [[Slimefoot, the stowaway]] deck loves this.

Hey, Slimefoot is my first commander deck. Do you have a list I could see? I'm always eager to see what others have done with him.
Sure thing! https://www.archidekt.com/decks/302326/skankin_in_the_pit Its my blinged out baby.
I don't even want to combo it, I just like it essentially being a skull clamp that gains you a mana instead of spending one in [[korvold, fae cursed king]]
