  Varragoth, Bloodsky Sire

  Utilize Varragoth's attack trigger to tutor demons from libraries, gaining card advantage and enabling strategic plays to control the board and outmaneuver opponents.

• 

  Be'lakor, the Dark Master

  Quickly generate multiple Shadowborn Apostles to sacrifice, triggering Be'lakor's life-loss prevention and cheating large demons into play to dominate the battlefield.

• 

  Kardur, Doomscourge

  Cast and sacrifice Kardur repeatedly to deal damage to all opponents' creatures, disrupting their boards and allowing for safe combat phases to chip away at opponents' life totals.
