Join the Flight or die trying

Karrthus, Tyrant of Jund is purging the lands with his flight of tyrannical savages. Strong enough to devour planeswalkers, Karrthus is a force to be recon with and when he enters the field of battle he dominates. To take flight besides him the dragons need to face and overcome death. Only this will ensure their eternal dominance over the sky's they roam.

The main goal is to reanimate our dragons or cheat them into play. This build can be quite aggressive trough early game reanimation and can overwhelm opponents pretty fast. With cards like; Sneak Attack and Elvish Piper, you can speed up the phase of the game in an instant. This is what the deck goes for in general, taking out the strongest opponent first with speed and later on finish the rest of with powerful reanimation and combo's.

Action instead of re-action is the name of the game with this deck. We play almost no answers because we look to become the threat as fast as possible. This makes the deck very strong in 1 vs. 1 EDH matches and moderately good in multi-player. The key to success in multi-player matches is to go for the controlling players first since they will punish you for being so aggressive on board.

Playing reanimator is strong and definitely fun! The kick with this deck is in my opinion the speed and savagery combined with endurance.

The deck only plays value in terms of Dragons, they have to do more than just being big. Every dragon fits a certain strategy and is therefor included. There are a lot of good dragons out there but for this deck every dragon needs to work with the overall game-plan. Depending on the development of the game different types of dragons are needed. Every dragon has its pro's and con's but the flight is diverse and therefore capable of adaptation to different opponents:
The deck runs only one combo that can go infinite. Besides that there are some combo's within the deck that can put us in a great position to win.

-Combo1

The first combo is mend to go infinite with Aggravated Assault or Hellkite Charger. The goal here is to get one of three options online with one of them. Aggravated Assault definitely better than the dragon but it's nice to have a plan-B:

-Combo2

The second combo revolves around mass reanimation combined with Scourge of Valkas and/or Dragon Tempest. The focus here lies on filling your graveyard as much as possible with dragons and mass reanimate them with Patriarch's Bidding or Living Death. Reanimating Scourge of Valkas with the rest of the flight results in massive ETB damage and with Dragon Tempest already out you wont even need Karrthus.
