How it grades
Fundamentals 77/100. Plays like Aristocrats and Reanimator / graveyard.
This reads as Aristocrats · Reanimator / graveyard, built around Sephiroth, Fabled SOLDIER // Sephiroth, One-Winged Angel. Turn creatures dying into a win: sacrifice fodder on demand, drain the table with death triggers, and grind value from every body. The deck barely fears wipes; it profits from them. Watch the fodder-to-payoff ratio: outlets and drains do nothing without a steady stream of bodies. Its strongest fundamental is land count (35 lands. About 37 fits this curve for Aristocrats, with your cost reduction counted); the first thing to tighten is interaction: 3 removal/protection effects (want 10+ for Aristocrats).
