Strategy
Fumulus is a creature-sacrifice engine that rewards you for feeding your own creatures into the graveyard while building a growing army of flying Insects. Every time you sacrifice a nontoken creature, you get a 1/1 flyer, turning your self-sacrifice outlets into a token-generation machine. Once you've got a swarm in play, Fumulus's second ability turns each attack into a slow but steady drain on opponents while you gain life, making you harder to kill as the game goes long.
The deck wants to pair Fumulus with sacrifice outlets like Viscera Seer, Altar of Dementia, or Basalt Monolith, and creatures that benefit from dying—think Blood Artist, Zulaport Cutthroat, or creatures with death-triggered ETB effects. You'll ramp into Fumulus early, then use the mid-game to fuel sacrifices and grow your aerial army. By turn 6–8, you're attacking with a pile of flyers, draining out opponents while staying out of range thanks to evasion and lifegain.

Key Synergies
Budget Build
Use budget sacrifice outlets like Viscera Seer and Costly Plunder instead of Ashnod's Altar; Zulaport Cutthroat and Blood Artist are pricier alternatives to Bastion of Remembrance.
