ok   what i am trying to do is put some kind of combo together. these are the cards off top hand i can think of.  any help and/or ideas will be appreciated. play swamp dark rit dark rit adding 5 swamp to pool. considering you have a zero coster like memnite or ornithopter on field, use 1 swamp for burnt offering sacrificing the memnite/ornithopter bringing the pool to 8 swamp. play buried alive, putting 3 demigods into graveyard... leaving 5 swamp.  tap 3 for yawgmoths will allowing you to replay both dark rits, the memnite and burnt offering again and repeat for a pool of 9 mana.  tutor the last demigod leaving 7 mana and hardcast him for 5 bringing the 3 in graveyard back    5 demigods on field in one turn.    need some help to see if this can be made solid

i also understand the tutor is banned so you could probably opt to take it out and use deabolic intent in replace of it

All the combo works, except: ''considering you have a zero coster like memnite or ornithopter on field, use 1 swamp for burnt offering sacrificing the memnite/ornithopter bringing the pool to 8 swamp.'' Memnite casting cost is 0, so you will obtain 0 manas black/red...LOL.
To aprimorate this, but stilling hard to play, cast two Dark Rituals, 5 mana, use Buried Alive to put 3 Demigods in the cemetery, so to get the necessary mana to play a Demigod from your hand, cast Culling the Weak and Memnite, sacrifice Memnite.
Now you have 5 manas, cast a Demigod from your hand, and obtain all the 4 Demigods.
If you don't have a Demigod in your hand, the better option is a Tutor definitely.
But what the hell of combo is this? More than 6 cards in a combo? LOL

Is there a reason you want to do this in black besides the handyness of the Burried Alive?  There was a decent Turn 1 Demigod around back in the day that ran as listed below:

T1: Mountain, Rite of Flame, Desperate Ritual, Seething Song, Demigod

Now if you're looking to drop all four Demigod on turn 1, you may want to think about running all the good mono-red ramp with Manamorphose to get the black for Burried Alive as it will also replace itself with the card draw.  Good cards to consider below:

Red Ramp:  Rite of Flame, Desperate Ritual, Pyretic Ritual, Seething Song, Geosurge (only for the actual creature cast or Priest of Urabrask), Priest of Urabrask

Black Ramp:  Dark Ritual, Cabal Ritual, Culling the Weak, Cabal Ritual, Overeager Apprentice, Burnt Offering, Priest of Gix.

Running with several dual lands and fetches (Badlands, Bloodcrypt, Blackcleave Cliffs, Sulfurous Springs, Marsh Flats, Arid Mesa, Bloodstained Mire) and you should be able to pretty easily guarentee T1 Black or Red mana

@Torto - he can use Priest of Gix instead of Memnite as it nets a 0 cost creature but gets you 3 red and/or black from the burnt offering ;)

Squillis:
Dark Ritual + Dark Ritual + Memnite + Culling the Weak = 8 manas with 4 cards. Allows you to play Buried Alive for 3 Demigods, and put a Demigod from your hand in play.
Dark Ritual + Dark Ritual + Priest of Gix + Burnt Offering = 7 manas with 4 cards. Allows you to play Buried Alive for 3 Demigods, but you need a Simian Spirit Guide in your hand to play Demigod.
That's why Burnt Offering in this case produce less than Culling the Weak. ^_^
