The most fun you can have with your pants on

This is the deck I have spent the most time working on. While it isn't meant to be played at a competitive level, it has seen quite a bit of success in my playgroup. It started as a simple Spreading Algae deck using Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth to be able to enchant any land of my opponent's. The rest of the deck was filled with the staples of a Jund deck: Tarmogoyf , Dark Confidant , etc.

After a bit of testing it was apparent that having the land destruction package with Spreading Algae just wasn't worth it unless I was all-in on the plan. Next came the addition of more land destruction through Mwonvuli Acid-Moss and Rain of Tears with most of the Jund staples coming out for more removal and value cards.

The current iteration of the deck still embraces the land destruction theme but takes it to the next level through Footsteps of the Goryo with cards such as Fulminator Mage and Woodfall Primus . The graveyard filling is facilitated through Faithless Looting and Collective Brutality .

Synergies:

- Bloodbraid Elf and most of the deck

-Using Footsteps of the Goryo on an Eternal Witness to get back land destruction, removal, or Bloodbraid Elf 's

Conclusion: All-in-all, I think this is the most fun way of destroying lands and grinding your opponent out. However, any feedback is appreciated as I am trying to work on a sideboard and cut the deck to 60 cards. I just can't fit everything I want currently :P
