It happened. I won a game against a Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker/Restoration Angel player by comboing off using Necrotic Ooze with Devoted Druid in my graveyard and Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker in his to make a billion hasty Necrotic Ooze tokens.

loam would be a lot better if you ran Borborygmos Enraged in your deck.

looking at the updated list you have I saw Tree of Redemption in the list. When first looking at this I thought it was cool, but now I am thinking it is a "Win More" card. Maybe take that out for a little more field control (discard or creature hate).

Put in 2 more Woodland Cemetery and take out Llanowar Wastes. The only lands that are not forest or swamp are you fetches.

Maybe another Abrupt Decay in the sideboard. I was playing my living end deck and lost on game 2 due to Rest in Peace.

The-Xellos I have been leaning in that direction with the tree for a while. The only times I have found the tree more desirable than a kill spell is against hyper-aggressive/burn decks where a blocker + extra life is much better than a single kill spell. As these are some of the harder matchups for this deck, I've been in debate for a while as to what I should do with the tree.

Going up to 4 Woodland Cemetery is just asking to have multiples in my opening hand, at which point I may as well be using guildgates. 2 is where I think I want to be.

Leyline of the Void and Rest in Peace are rough. So rough in fact, that they prompted the addition of Phyrexian Obliterator to the sideboard. Previously, I just swapped over to the midrange/aggro plan in the face of such hate and still won a decent number of games. Bringing in Obliterators make those such scenarios much easier.

MattTheNinja, koko1254

What do you guys think of dropping the 2 Grisly Salvages for a fourth Inquisition of Kozilek and a third Thoughtseize since the deck is leaning more towards a Rock deck with combo back-up now?

Anyone else who sees this is welcome to add their opinion as well.

I think it'll help the deck. Worst case scenario, you Thoughtseize or Inquisition of Kozilek targeting yourself to ditch a combo piece
