In MTG, 'Aristocrat' refers to a strategy or type of deck that focuses on sacrificing your own creatures for benefits. The name comes from cards like 'Falkenrath Aristocrat' and 'Cartel Aristocrat', which facilitate this strategy by allowing you to sacrifice creatures, usually to gain life, draw cards, or deal damage. So, when someone talks about an Aristocrat deck, they mean a deck built around getting value from sacrificing creatures.

From my experience playing Aristocrats in MTG, it's super satisfying. There's something about sacrificing your own creatures for the greater good (or evil?) of winning the game. It's like playing chess with extra steps and more sacrifices.

Aristocrat decks are all about saccing creatures for gain. It's like a high society ball, but instead of dancing, everyone's throwing each other into the volcano for profit.

Nah, Aristocrats just means you're using your creatures as tools. Nothing fancy, just cold, calculated gameplay.
