Sacrifice Yosei to the altar, and resurrect with the Deathmantle over and over to tap down and permanently lock out your opponents, while also swinging with a 7/7 flying dragon with intimidate as well.

This may help to lock all opponents each turn.

Deathmantle uses a triggered ability, not activated, so nothing can reduce its cost. Probably better that way, anyway. I think I have shown by now how easily abused it is, between all the combos.

You are absolutely right and I didn't read the card text carefully...
Maybe
 will save the day. You may sacrifice the token to the Altar for another 2 mana.
