Wow, the perfect beater for any sacrifice deck!
Turn 1, 0 drop creature, eg. Ornithopter, Swamp, tap for B, Culling the Weak, get BBBB, this.
Turn 2, if your opponent didn't play a one mana response - Swords to Plowshares, Innocent Blood or Unsummon -proceed to beat face. Swamp, tap for 1B, enchant Persecutor with Dark Favor, swing for 9. (Opponent @ 11)
Turn 3, if your opponent still has no response, 1B for another Dark Favor or even Unholy Strength to buff Persecutor to 12 or 11 power, respectively, swing, bring opponent's life to 0. Swamp, tap for B, Innocent Blood, sac Persecutor and win the game.
Of course, if you're running a sacrifice deck, the enchantments are probably not such a great bet - in which case it will take a while longer to win. And heck, even if they managed to remove Persec... (see all)

Olivia should hire this guy. He comes out one turn before olivia, takes care of anything problematic originally, then stalls while olivia takes all of their cards, and finally keeps the opponent alive so olivia can drink as much of their blood as she likes.

Jarad, Golgari Lich Lord, Vish Kal, Blood Arbiter, Grimgrin, Corpse Born, Dralnu, Lich Lord, Sedris, The Traitor King, Ertai, The Corrupted, & Ghost Counsil of Orzhova as Commander. Donate it, Juxtapose it, bounce it...something...if that all fails.

In an instant removal deck with at least 7 plus removals in it this guy is an absolute ender for black. Perfect

I so want to play this guy with nicol bolas, planeswalker out. Just keep trolling them, destroying everything they have until they just concede the game.

@bongripper420, why would you risk spot removal so vital against untapped blue mana?
On another note, why is everyone talking about spot removal for your own creature? Ludicrous if youre in black you'll have access to the most sacrifice outlets in the game anyways, they can't typically counter it if it's already in play like a carrion feeder or demonmail hauberk anyways.

Fantastic card. Way above curve, with a drawback that quite frankly isn't that much of a drawback. It doesn't even matter until your opponents are on 0, and when that happens, so many cards simply undo the drawback. But that's probably been discussed to death in this forum.
Interestingly, this guy was the reason I didn't win the WWK prerelease, as the player who won cracked one dominated me (and everyone else) with it. He'd get his opponent to sub-1 life, and then use Slingbow Trap in the combat damage step to kill the Demon. Limited is usually quite counterspell light, so it was mindblowingly effective.
@Osprey - are you kidding? It's obvious why everyone is talking about spot removal for their own creature. It's going to be the default way most people get rid of him without including cards that are in there just to get rid of him. For example, Carrion Feeder can be a useless card without the right cards alongside it, so it won't be in many decks. Demonmail Hauberk is usually pretty... (see all)
