I don’t murder a good card just so it can Shock the opponent later, I don’t consider that a trade.

Where the goodness is, is Unearthing in a combo with sacrifice. Your card’s already done its duty and made its worth, now return it back to play for double duty to be used for amazing removal, beats, etc.

I liked Jund for its Dargon omnom, but Grixis overall is really solid. Unearth has always been fun.

Sacrifice a Dregscape Zombie for a Thunderthrash Elder, next turn get him back in order to sacrifice him again for another Devourer … got me moments of surprise :-)

Would be fun if Cruel is in the Bolas deck.
