Maybeboard


I have always loved the Golgari, and the Black/Green color pair identity. Reanimation and Graveyard strategies are fun as well as pretty powerful; utelizing your graveyard as a resource for more card advantage is excellent.

I knew I had to build a Meren deck as soon as I saw her! My playgroup is Casual/Competitive, an I know that I could put some super crazy cards in this deck, however, I decided to just make it strong without trying to go for infinite loops and other evil shenanigans. If you've noticed, All of the cards also have the "Modern Frame". This is simply because I wanted to limit my options of cards to add to the deck (Because there are literally tons of card choices and I simply couldn't choose), and all of these cards were fairly easy to acquire.

Like most Meren decks, and most Golgari decks in General, the deck aims to use the graveyard as a resource. The deck functions as a toolbox designed to shut down my enemies by denying them cards, excelling at killing creatures, artifacts, enchantments, and even lands. The Golgari are experts in the war of Attrition.

Aside from the Attrition or "Stax" strategy, the deck also wins fairly easily by simply putting a lot of creatures on the board. There are lots of ways to make a swarm of tokens to chump block, Sacrifice, or "Go Wide" with.

Finally, the last way to win is by simply draining your opponent's life totals by using Jarad or Gray Merchant, a perfect way around opponents who you can't easily attack.

The deck could probably still use some work, and so I figured I would post it and see if anyone could offer any suggestions for me. I have a maybeboard of cards I am trying out as well as a makeshift "sideboard". I appreciate all comments and suggestions! Thank you!
