Mogis, God of Slaughter

Mogis is a relentless damage engine that forces your opponents into horrible choices every turn. You're essentially playing a political damage clock—each opponent takes 2 damage or sacrifices a creature, which naturally opens the door for you to attack or finish them off. The goal is to reach seven devotion to black and red (so Mogis becomes a creature and starts attacking), but even before that happens, the repeating sacrifice pressure grinds out value and weakens the table.

Your deck should lean into sacrifice synergies and aristocrats, filling your board with expendable creatures that you're happy to pitch to Mogis's trigger anyway. Cards that reward sacrifice (like Blood Artist, Zulaport Cutthroat, or Viscera Seer) turn the forced sacrifice clause into card advantage. You're also running creatures that benefit from dying—ETB and LTB effects—to ensure Mogis's pressure translates into actual board development. Once you hit seven devotion, you've got a 7/5 indestructible beater that also keeps the damage train rolling.
