Golgari Graveyard Craze

Standard BG (Golgari)

fluxisx55


Sideboard


So I was trying to make a deck to fit in Underworld Cerberus when I came upon this little idea.

So obviously with this the point is to get anything and everything into your graveyard via Drown in Filth / Commune With The Gods / Grisly Salvage OR Lotleth Troll.

Now it took a little bit of head bashing to decide whether to play Corpsejack Menace or Reaper of The Wilds... While Reaper is better I feel the Synergy between Corpsejack menance and Lotleth Troll (plus the janky Bioshifts in the sideboard) I couldn't pass up the chance.

So lets go over some ideal play conditions

Turn 1 : Forest - Experiment One

Turn 2 : Swamp - Commune with the Gods / Grisly Salvage - Lets say you pick up a Lotleth Troll and discard 2 other lands and 2 other creatures to the graveyard - swing for 1

Turn 3 : Overgrown Tomb - Lotleth Troll - Evolves Experiment One to 2/2

Turn 4 : (6 cards left in hand) Forest - Play Corpsejack Menace - Evolve Experiment One he goes to 4/4 discard the remaining 4 cards in your hand (assuming creatures) to give Lotleth +8/+8 - Swing for 14

See where I am going with this the deck just explodes.

The next turn from there you could top deck either a nemesis and play it plus monstrosity or bestow a nighthowler to something for an extra +6/+6 it gets crazy fast could even play Jarad and he would be an 8/8 so many options to try.

There were a total of 7 players at tonights FNM (played the later game smaller crowd)

Round 1 (BYE)

Easy game beat myself with a mulligan to 2.....

Round 2 (0-2) Mono-Green Devotion

So he went nuts on me game 1 with a magical Christmas land hand where he went a straight curve from elvish mystic < domri < xenagos < garruk < worldspine wurm.... NOPE NOTHING

Game 2 I made a misplay where I didn't kill his ramp early due to a bad Drown in Filth so he was able to pull a turn 3 arbor collosos (spelling sucks) which overran me and that was it for round 1

Round 3 (2-1) Selesnya Tokens

Game 1 I was on the draw which I was able to play into a turn 2 abrupt to kill a fleecemane to a turn 3 putrefy to kill a smiter.

Turn 3 I laid down my Lotleth which a swamp untapped for regen.

Followed by a turn 4 Corpsejack so I discarded 3 creatures getting a 8/7 that pushing through a wurm.

Turn 5 I through down a Vraska to blow up the smiter in the way and swung lethal.

Game 2 I lost.. I did another misplay where I discarded a creature that put my Lotleth and Jarad at 5 power where they were double charmed and I just couldn't recover.. oh well.. live and learn.

Game 3 I was able to pull through around turn 7 where we both had each other board states cleared I sacked some lands and brought a Jarad back to hand which I played as a 11/11 followed by the next turn where I scavenged a deadbridge to him making him 15/15 and swung lethal.

So I really only won one of two matches but hey it's something to start with.

The one thing I noticed is I do not see my Commune with the Gods / Grisly Salvage enough.. I am going to try to max out those at 4 and try it a little different see how it works.

I will be playing two different game days and will update on the placing.
