Overview:
A sacrifice-focused deck that leverages Juri, Master of the Revue as both a growing threat and a direct damage source, utilizing various token generators and sacrifice outlets to accumulate value and pressure opponents.
Primer:
The deck operates on a sacrifice engine strategy, using token generators like Endrek Sahr, Master Breeder, Ophiomancer, and Jadar, Ghoulcaller of Nephalia to create fodder for sacrifice outlets. These sacrifices both grow Juri and trigger various value engines like Pitiless Plunderer, Mayhem Devil, and Nadier's Nightblade. The deck can win through commander damage with a large Juri, direct damage from sacrificing Juri, or through death trigger value accumulation.
The gameplay typically involves establishing a token engine and sacrifice outlet early, then layering value pieces while growing Juri. Key interaction pieces like Bolt Bend and Malakir Rebirth protect Juri, while cards like Fling and Soul's Fire can convert Juri's power into sudden lethal damage. The deck includes several recursion elements to maintain pressure and recover from removal.
Weaknesses:
The deck is vulnerable to graveyard hate and relies heavily on having sacrifice outlets available. Rest in Peace effects significantly hamper the deck's ability to generate value. The deck has limited answers to enchantments and can struggle against heavy control strategies that prevent creature-based strategies. Flying defense is minimal, though the deck can often race through direct damage.
Most Important Cards:
- Phyrexian Altar
- Pitiless Plunderer
- Mayhem Devil
- The Ozolith
- Endrek Sahr, Master Breeder
- Black Market Connections
- Smothering Abomination
- Viscera Seer
- Erebos, Bleak-Hearted
- Atsushi, the Blazing Sky
Attribute Ratings:
- Speed: 6/10
- Resilience: 7/10
- Consistency: 6/10
- Interaction: 5/10
Rating Justification:
This deck sits comfortably in the 6.0-6.5 range due to its ability to consistently execute its strategy around turns 7-8 while maintaining some interaction. While it can occasionally achieve faster wins through commander damage or Juri's death trigger, it lacks the explosive fast mana and tutors seen in higher-powered decks. The deck's resilience through recursion and protection effects elevates it above casual builds, but it doesn't reach the consistency or speed of truly competitive decks.
Final power level rating: 6.0 - 6.5
Juri, Master of the Revue
