Deck discussion for standard infect prototype

Take out some of the less useful cards (Contagion Engine, Decimator Web, Ghoultree, Lure, Genesis Wave, Triumph of the Hordes) for more lands. 15 lands is way too little for what you're trying to do here.

Additionally replace Grafted Exoskeleton with Livewire Lash. This change will give those pump spells an even better use as the damage Livewire Lash grants is done by the equipped creature. So an ifect creature with the Lash equipped that gets targeted will put 2 poison counters on target player before the spell doing the targeting resolves.

Grafted exsoskeleton and triumph of the hordes is what gives goultree infect. Goultree is a high cost but I have the ability to drop it for 1. So I'm not taking them out. Contagion engine and decimator web give direct poison. So they are staying. But I could go with putting livewire lash in

After doing some testing I realize what you were saying is logical

You still need to increase the land count. Anything less than 20 lands is dangerous.

But that where I'm not sure what to do. Cuz giving goultree infect is an almost instant win. And lure would allow me to get several other creatures through the defences

Hmmm... Ghoultree feels 'gimmicky' to me. The idea is nice, but it feels out of place.

I think that the deck is too fast for triumph of the hoards and lure. I would put in mirran mettle and signal pest instead.
