Highly underrated card. Block, sac, Mimic Vat, etc. Or use it with tokens. And you can prevent lifelink from going off from say, oh gee I dunno Wurmcoil Engine? If anyone still uses that card. Side note: the comments on this card are freakin' LAME (I'll probably get downrated by the people who can't stand criticism of any kind for this but I don't really care). Final note: @Jabberwock, what the heck are you talking about? The guy/gal isn't sarcastic and doesn't mention any enchantments at all, unless of course he/she edited them out of his/her comment.

Its definitely a Johnny card. Combos well with Reassembling Skeleton, Mortician Beetle, and proliferate. I had a fun little sac engine deck before Zendikar rotated :)

I play this card alongside Glissa, the Traitor in a Heartless Summoning deck. It's actually very consistently drawing me cards, but my favorite thing to do with it is cast it, sac a few creatures that were gonna die anyways after blocks, then draw cards from it and recur it with Glissa, the Traitor. Lather, rinse, repeat.

Easily one of my favorite standard decks I own. Ton of exile, revival, draw, etc. I think one of my favorite things is that I will be willingly day-ing when I have a full field goin :P

This is one of those quiet but great cards. It has come to occupy a few EDH/Commander slots for me now. This really ads a ton of value to every creature it eats, and combines powerfully with creature steal effects.

In slower formats this is a 2 drop that guarantees you'll never lose card advantage, and with the right deck can ensure great things happening. Compare this to Phyrexian Vault where here you never have to leave mana open to ensure the sac outlet ability.

Hey, it's a trash can! You put old stuff into it, and if you're desperate, you can also eat from it!

Wow. Here I was searching all over the place for a good sac outlet in EDH and somehow I missed this card. I'm wondering why this isn't an auto-include in every EDH deck.

It can;
-Sacrifice your commander in response to a tuck effect from Spin into Myth or Condemn
-Sacrifice a creature in response to removal, essentially netting you a 2-for-1
-Sacrifice itself for a measly 1 at any time, meaning it's unlikely you won't draw cards from this save for a Krosan Grip

I'd be shocked if this didn't net a decent card advantage in most EDH games. Definitely going to be playing this in there a lot more.

This is card advantage. You put it into any deck that runs creatures. When a creature gets nuked or is going to lose in combat without killing, you sac it, building up your counters to reload your hand.
