Strategy notes

Dark Magic is a Black-White (Orzhov) Commander aristocrats / Vampire-sacrifice deck. It wants to flood the board with small creatures and token makers, then sacrifice them for value with outlets like Viscera Seer, Yahenni, Bartolomé del Presidio, Vampiric Rites, and Village Rites/Deadly Dispute.

Cards like Pawn of Ulamog, Sifter of Skulls, Ophiomancer, Reassembling Skeleton, Bloodghast, and Doomed Dissenter help keep sacrifice fodder flowing, while Skullclamp, Grim Haruspex, Midnight Reaper, Morbid Opportunist, and Welcoming Vampire keep cards coming.
