I wanted to build a cheap modern graveyard deck that used the loam pox combo and came up with this.
Shit worth talking about:
Bloodghast: We all know him, he is the annoying piece of shit you don't want to see hit your opponents graveyard turn 1. And that is what you do in this deck, you discard him with Faithless Looting, Smallpox or Zombie Infestation and you get value out of him. As dumb as it sounds he is the big threat in this deck, and a good one at that since your removal will take care of everything in the way.
Squee, Goblin Nabob: Oh, the things Squee does, he can stall a single creature till you get whatever you currently need, he is something you can always discard without a drawback and once you get 2 of them Zombie Infestation is broken. Also 1 Squee and 1 Life from the Loam allow for both retrace action and Zombie Infestation fodder.
Zombie Infestation: A great win condition, a great way to get rid of excess stuff in your hand, discards Bloodghast and Lingering Souls and often requires your opponents to sb in hate vs this one card.
Darkblast: A good removal spell for early creatures, tokens, mana dorks, delver and also to finish damaged threats. The dredge gives the card real value and synergy with the deck.
Putrefy: Removal, good cheap (money wise) removal.
Terminate: Again, cheap, good removal.
Faithless Looting: If you are running red and you are not running this card stop running red. This is what makes the deck run smooth, the card gives you the early Bloodghasts and Lingering Souls and makes sure you have got some draw in your deck, cuz really this just draws 2 cards, sometimes more than that.
Flame Jab: Another Darkblast, just a bit different, sometimes better, sometimes worse.
Life from the Loam: It draws 3 cards, wait, wait, wait, WAIT! 3!? Most games this draws like 15! And no they are not just lands, they are Lingering Souls, Faithless Looting, all the retrace cards, gargoyles, darkblast and fixing. It makes Smallpox broken, Gargoyle Castle is a win con cuz of this, it smoothens your mana, all and all it just gives waaaaaay too much value to ignore.
Lingering Souls: A slow yet really handy win condition that is good even when milled or discarded.
Raven's Crime: Distrubtion, the retrace makes it absolutely amazing.
Smallpox: This deck is about abusing this card so here is how you do it:
Sac a dude: A zombie token is fine, a bloodghast is super fine and a squee is fine as well.
Dis a card: There are 16 cards you always want to discard and about 7 more you can afford to discard in certain situations.
Sac a land: Ya know, it's not called LOAM-pox for nothing.
Worm Harvest: Another handy win condition, most of the time you use this in long games where the worms block till you get the upper hand and win, just make sure you don't mill yourself to 0 cuz that would suck, A LOT
Gargoyle Castle: just another cheap win condition.
Tectonic Edge and Ghost Quarter: They provide you with another stall/win strategy and do great in the longer games. They aslo help in tron and scapeshift matches and destroy tri-colored decks and any greedy mana bases.
