Made some major edits. The main threat in this deck is now a combo of two 1 drops and a 3 drop. Varolz let's me Scavenge Death's Shadow to add 13 +1/+1 counters to a creature. Now even if we don't have Corpse Jack Menace in play, Tormented Soul is now an unblockable 14/14 creature. Who cares if it can't block? Rot Farm Skeleton is mainly used to put Deaths Shadow into my graveyard and also creatures that have a revival effect like Jarad or other RFS. Most spells focus on Removal of threats since Tormented Soul cant block, and Putrefy has the added bonus of destroying Artifacts as well. A few other cards like Wildwood Rebirth and Treasured Find help me get Varolz onto play via Rot Farm Skeleton, Mulch, and Grisly Salvage, and it can also fish for Corpsejack Menace as well. This deck is designed to quickly churn out game winning combos, and since it uses a lot of self-milling to power Scavenge, it needs to hit fast and hard. If Tormented Soul can snag even one deaths shadow scavenge and I have Jarad in play, I can swing you for an unblockable 14 then sac Tormented Soul and use Jarad to burn another 14 from you. And since Jarad gets +1/+1 for each creature on my graveyard and is revivable, he makes a stellar blocker while Tormented Soul swings at you as you watch in utter horror.

I had totally spaced Putrefy. I added 2 and swapped out 1 Murder and 1 DD Imp. The best part of this deck is the look non their face when Varolz hits the field and they realize that Blastoderm and CJM are about to create me a very big, angry Dreg Mangler :)
Totally spaced it. Good catch.
what about death's shadow? thats another amazing combo with varolz ard corpsejack menace.
Dude I hadnt even thought about that!! Haha 1 mana for 26 +1/+1 tokens?
Made some edits, tell me what you think?
one problem that i see with this deck is that your creatures are only one offs or two offs. you need to make your creatures more common in your deck, and then take out the cards that arent doing much to help you. for example, dreg mangler probably shouldnt be in this deck. its a nice card, but it wont really help you much. you could turn those two dreg manglers into something you really need like another varolz and another jarad. also, blastoderm is the only card in this deck that is stopping it from being modern, so do you really need it in this deck?
you should go through your cards and tell yourself that you really need those in your deck, and if you dont, then just take them out and add more of what you do really need.
I made a few more edits, and i feel like this will make the deck much more aggressive and make it much faster given that the mana curve is a really 2 or 3 base since Deaths Shadow mostly will be going to the graveyard to be scavenged. I added Tormented Soul for a turn 1 option, and its presence puts immediate pressure on the opponent, especially in a Scavenge Deck. Any thoughts on the new setup?
It's looking really good :) just do you really need those murders if you have x4 putrefies? And another acceptable one drop for this deck could perhaps be slither head instead of tormented soul
I just liked tormented soul because of its unblock status for a one drop. Slither head is good I agree but its kind out classed with Varolz.Maybe I drop the murders for either Mending Touch, or Giant Growth?
mending touch is a useful card to have in a deck, maybe even add some more. with a mana curve like yours, with the highest cmc being 4, you dont need 24 land, maybe just bump it down to 22. also, maybe take out mulch, since you dont need ramp and add more corpsejack menaces which are a major need in this deck.maybe some more grisly salvages and mending touches too.
I have a very similar deck to yours mainly cause I had CJM and petrify in my standard BuG deck and wanted to build around those cards. Disentomb dose the same thing for one B as treasured find. Deadbridge chant seems like a powerful card in a deck like this also Jared's orders as we'll ( haven't play tested yet I'm waiting on cards cheers!)
