K'rrik, Son of Yawgmoth + Pontiff of Blight + Gravecrawler + Viscera Seer

K'rrik, Son of Yawgmoth

Pontiff of Blight

Gravecrawler

Viscera Seer

How it works

1. Activate Viscera Seer by sacrificing Gravecrawler, causing you to scry 1.
2. Cast Gravecrawler from your graveyard by paying or 2 life due to K'rrik.
3. K'rrik triggers, as well as each creature you control's extort ability.
4. Resolve the first K'rrik trigger, putting a +1/+1 counter on it.
5. Resolve the first extort trigger, causing you to pay W/B or 2 life due to K'rrik, causing each opponent to lose 1 life and you to gain that much life.
6. Repeat step 5 for each remaining trigger.
7. Repeat from step 1.

This elegant loop turns the relentless undead nature of Gravecrawler into a devastating engine by using Viscera Seer as a repeatable sacrifice outlet. With K'rrik, Son of Yawgmoth on the battlefield, you can bypass Gravecrawler's mana cost entirely by paying life instead, while also growing K'rrik larger with each black spell you cast. Meanwhile, Pontiff of Blight blankets your entire board in extort triggers, allowing you to continually drain your opponents' life totals and pad your own life buffer to comfortably sustain K'rrik's life-payment costs.
