Not that I've experienced, every over here seems to be flocking to U/R and G/W deck since RTR came out. Played alot of people using U/R playing those damn Pillar of Flames, I seriously hate that card, and Bonfire. That's why I'm MB'ing Golgari charm. There's more counter spells with RTR also, Blue lost Mana leak and a couple other counters but gained Syncopate and Dispell, With all the counters in the meta Cavern is a lifesaver.

The Land ratio looks pretty good now.

I think Sorin is going to be nut's once Gate Crash comes out, pair him with the Orzhov Syndicate, It's gonna be crazy. I think he's gonna jump in price because of it too, so if you have any on hand, keep them until Gate Crash, lol.

Yep, especially since your running Jarad, being 2B/2G. If your on a budget you could run Overgrown tomb 2 of, Wooland as a 4 of, them make up the difference with the transguild's.

Nah, the one every hates thats in standard is a 3 drop, Liliana of the Veil.

Right, but with Arbor elf you don't have to pay two life. It counts as a forest and a swamp so you can let it come in play tapped then untap it with the elf.

I have Abrupt decay in the SB for all of those O-ringers and the always hated Liliana. If they o-ring my G-mess i'll make them pay for it, lol.

The problem with transguild is that it actually costs you to play it. But in this type of deck where you have somewhat of a mana ramp I don't see it actually hurting you too much. If you were to play it, play it as a 1-2 of though because you honestly don't want to be dropping these very often.

Thanks, yeah I had not even thought about him at all until today. I've been play testing him with really good results. I will be playing this deck in an upcoming FMN, will post any changes I will inevitably make based on what the meta brings to the table.

Your talking about "life Gain"? Not sure how I could fit the tablet in here though, any suggestions?

And also add some Woodland Cemetary's , Overgrown Tombs and a Cavern of souls as a 3 of. The guild gates are honestly not that good.

I would cut out an elixir or 2 and cut 1 fog, should leave room for 3 Golgari Charms.

Point taken, I'll put it in SB. Thanks.

So "BonFire" and any other destroy mechanic will not destroy if you cast the charm. It also works with creature damage, when you attack with your creatures, cast the charm befor damage and your creatures will be spared while there's will sadly die, lol.

Yes, regen just prevents all damage dealt to your creatures.

Oh, forgot to say "you need to keep it down to 60 cards". I know 1 card may not seem like it would make much of a difference but it decreases your chances of pulling the cards you need when you need them by alot.

I would highly recommend Golgari Charm, it helps with the inevitable hate that the Hydra is going to draw. Not only does the charm take care of tokens and enchantments but it also regens "all" of your creatures, really helps againts board wipes. Nice deck, +1 from me.

That's partly why I decided to put in the Charm, it should take care of tokens if there are no anthems out. I have thought about putting ERD in but don't know what I should cut.

First off your sideboard needs work. Your siding in b/r lands just to play 3 kill cards and what amounts to surgical extraction for 2-B/R isn't worth it imo. B & G have plenty of kill cards that work just fine, I know murder isn't that great but ultimate price abrupt decay and tragic slip will and do just fine. Cremate and Vile Rebirth are not very good in this build either. For card draw I would recomend Sign in blood or Disciple of Bolas. I've play tested both and SIB is awesome late game. As for creatures, Slitherhead isn't as good as you may think, your basically just using him to pump lotleth up, granted you end up getting +2+2 for 0. Another one drop to think about is Rakdos Cackler, hes basically a 2/2 for 1 B. Jarad is awesome in this deck, He synergises very well with lotleth and G-mess. I would honostly pull Corpse Jack because by the time you get to pull him and eventually discard a creature ( if you even have any in hand) you should have got your opponent down to and more manageable life total where you could just sac lotleth to Jarad for the win. Otherwise Great deck, +1 from me.
