Deck overview

This is an Orzhov aristocrats/reanimator deck built to weaponize its own graveyard. Bartolome del Presidio is the deck's only repeatable sacrifice outlet, converting every sacrificed creature or artifact into +1/+1 counters while feeding a constellation of death triggers: Zulaport Cutthroat, Bastion of Remembrance, Marionette Apprentice, Agent of the Iron Throne, and Ninja Teen. The primary win is an infinite sacrifice loop: Boonweaver Giant or Danitha, Benalia's Hope enters, fetches a death-rebuy Aura (Gift of Immortality, Kaya's Ghostform, Minion's Return, Fungal Fortitude, Necrogen Communion, Changing Loyalty), and is then sacrificed to Bartolome over and over, each iteration draining the whole table. A dense self-mill package (Stitcher's Supplier, Undead Butler, Crow of Dark Tidings, Corpse Churn, Diresight) fills the graveyard, while fifteen-plus reanimation spells (Unburial Rites, Dread Return, Sun Titan, Angel of Indemnity) turn the yard into a second hand. The fallback plan is grindy value beats with reanimated angels, titans, and aristocrat drains.
