A deck that focuses on sacrificing creatures for value, such as a sacrifice or aristocrats deck, would benefit from including Barter in Blood. While it is a solid card for its cost, there are more efficient options available, such as Cruel Edict or Diabolic Edict, which only require one black mana to cast and have a similar effect.
