Doomgape

Creature — Elemental

Trample

At the beginning of your upkeep, sacrifice a creature. You gain life equal to that creature's toughness.

I can assure you that The Mimeoplasm plays very differently from Slimefoot and Squee due to its nature and the difference between Jund and Sultai. For example, the reason why I was thinking about Titan of Industry and Woodfall Primus is that I consider them analogs to each other between these two decks. I've already mentioned why I think Woodfall Primus is a good fit for S&S, but I find its Persist annoying in Mimeoplasm because how it interacts when The Mimeoplasm eats it. On the other hand, The Mimeoplasm's method of "reanimation" may be powerful and uniquely avenue opening, it only works once, and whatever I've committed to it is gone. I much prefer the Titan of Industry here for its slightly better stats and combat ability, and its flexibility of ETB options (ESPECIALLY the shield counter to ensure you're making your investment count).

If Doomgape doesn't work out and you're still in the market for big lifegain in a pinch, I did remember that Momentous Fall exists.

Thank you Cornonjacob07!

Yeah I have a bit of a rep in my playgroup for having mostly graveyard decks. I've embraced it at this point. Necromancy is my jam. Funnily enough I was thinking of building The Mimeoplasm next as I am still missing a sultai deck in my collection. My only worry is that it may end up too similar to this one. But I'll have to get to brewing to find out if I can make it different enough from my current decks.

From your suggestions I actually very much like Titan of Industry and Doomgape. I just finished updating my deck and currently don't know what I would cut for them, but I will definitely put them on my watch list. I love the flexibility of Titan and I've wanted a way to gain life in a pinch in the deck so Doomgape could fit that role. I could put in Kokusho instead for lifegain, but I kept that one out deliberately.

I really like the ideas presented in your deck and the fantastic write up. It's always nice to see other people passionate about necromancy decks. My first and still main EDH deck is The Mimeoplasm, and I've been wanting to branch off into Jund reanimation for years, especially since Gyrus, Waker of Corpses wasn't really working, so when Slimefoot and Squee were spoiled, I knew they'd be perfect, especially as a home for some of the aristocrat oriented cards that I've wanted to play that aren't really practical for Mimeoplasm.

I have a few suggestions of varying seriousness I hope you consider. Firstly is Woodfall Primus as a big beater with attached noncreature destruction. Titan of Industry is also a solid option, but I think Woodfall Primus having Persist is a huge advantage in a deck with so much emphasis on sacrifice. Secondly, a more fun than powerful card I'll suggest is Doomgape. I think it fits nicely into a deck that's a blend of reanimation and aristocrats, and it's also huge and can gain a lot of life, which you say is something the deck lacks much of. Finally, Titania, Voice of Gaea  Meld and Argoth, Sanctum of Nature  Meld. You're no stranger to milling, discarding, even sacrificing lands here, so Titania can net some life and meet her condition easily, and Argoth's second ability gives mill in a pinch and has relatively low opportunity cost to run over a basic Forest. If you manage to meld them, that's a World Shaper death trigger and another enormous creature.

I'd go up to 4 Village Rites .

Card suggestions: Mortician Beetle , Pawn of Ulamog , Smothering Abomination , new card Bone Shards. (tappedout doesn't have bone shards but u can google it, it's basically bone splinters but lets you discard a card or sac a creature, and kills planeswalkers too)

Daemogoth Titan reminds me of this 9/9 elemental from shadowmoor or one of those sets thats B/G hybrid mana and makes you sacrifice a creature whenever it attacks but I forgot what it is. Nevermind it's Doomgape which is kinda bad so scratch that. For some reason my memory thought it was 4-5 cmc.

wow! thanks guys for all the suggestions! I have been so busy, and haven't update much of this deck since early this year.. I will update this deck this weekend, with all the good suggestions you have given..

@king-saproling - thanks for the suggestions! I will consider those..

@casual_competitive - I'm not much of a 2 card auto win combo kind of player, especially since i already have Jarad, Golgari Lich Lord + Phyrexian Devourer in the deck.. but thanks for the suggestion!

@VEILofAUTUMN - thanks! I might add one of them, it depends on playtesting, since either of them are creatures.. maybe Deadly Rollick..

@vileplume23 - hmm.. these are good on indestructible creatures, but i can't target threats like Ravenous Chupacabra.. i'll consider those.. thanks!

@backdoorbonus - that's a cool new card! affect other players too.. i might add that! thanks for the suggestion!

@cakes25 - it's an instant graveyard fill, but it might be too slow and too random of a card recursion.. but thanks!

@TRANSFORMERS159 - thanks for the suggestions.. however, i have considered those before and it's just to slow for me since those are sorceries compared to Grapple with the Past & Grisly Salvage..

@Cloud777 - Lotleth Giant only affects one opponent, and it's hard to cast or cost higher life to Reanimate, but i might consider Doomgape.. it can be lifegain on a stick.. thanks!

@masayoshishido - Doomed Necromancer can be a cheap creature recursion, Keeper of the Dead will depend on the consistency of creatures on my graveyard, Gemrazer is good on certain situations bu can be vulnerable to single target removals that can kill gemrazer and the mutated creature, Altar of Dementia might be reconsidered.. thanks for all the suggestions!

@antlers12 - Gamekeeper might be a dud, since it needs to die then it needs to have enough noncreature cards to fill a bit of the graveyard and i don't have a lot of sac outlets.. also, creatures in the graveyard is needed for the gameplan of the deck, it might be counterintuitive to mill noncreature cards with Gamekeeper.. but Skull Prophet is a definite inclusion! thanks!

@sigiledwatch - ohh.. true, however putting things in my graveyard can be card draw in a way that's why i don't put a lot of card draws.. but i get what you mean, i might consider some of those cards.. thanks!

@mylene800 - i have considered Ghoultree before, though i'm not sure how it would be good.. i would playtest it again with the changes i would make, and check if it's worth as an inclusion.. however, Hydra Omnivore might be meh in the deck.. 6 mana, 8/8 creature that needs to connect for the best results might be hard in turns 4-6 earliest.. not having trample is not good.. but thanks for the suggestions!

@megantrongriffin13 - both Fiend Artisan and Necrotic Wound are great new changes in the deck! I'll check about Sheoldred, Whispering One.. It might not be a salty preator card, on my playgroup.. thanks!

@lola82600 - yeah! i was excited on adding some of those to my edh decks as well! I will definitely include Bala Ged Recovery  Flip and Tangled Florahedron  Flip! not sure about Agadeem's Awakening  Flip, depends on playtesting if the price of the card versus being useful game ender or just a land most of the time.. I'll consider Nissa of Shadowed Boughs too! Thanks for the suggestions!

Lotleth Giant Doomgape good targets for jarad

Great sucker punch deck! I always liked Gaea's Revenge and Spirit of the Night as primary haste targets for The Mimeoplasm. Doomgape and Death's Shadow are beefy secondary targets for massive +1/+1 counters in addition to Impervious Greatwurm.

As for getting fatties into the graveyard without tutors, Frantic Search, Breakthrough, and Careful Study pull weight.
