Deck Description

I love how sneaky the Golgari clan are. They come from the rotting underworld of ravnica with scraps that people just threw away and they use it to there advantage. They are a lot like the people they threw away things that are still usable. This is really relevant to how the deck plays. You have to be resourceful, committed to filling that graveyard at all costs & you have to play with self abandon as "Death only makes the Golgari stronger."

How to Play

You want to always have a turn one or two play in hand at the start of the game as well as some way to add creatures to the graveyard. E.g grisly salvage. Of course you would prefer your elvish mystic's turn one. Then you want to start loading that graveyard with Satyr Wayfinder & Grisly Salvage. Pulling primary land out of the cards you put into your graveyard. you want to get your spiders out to continue milling yourself.
Later in the game this is were some of the tricks of this deck comes into its own.
The "Wombo Combo" is to have a nighthowler out for example with 5 counters on it. You also want Pharika & Strength of the fallen out. You attack with your Nighthowler they block it with a Desecration Daemon you then use Pharika's ability to exile a creature card in your graveyard. Then that triggers strength of the fallen to then turn your Nighthowler which is now a 4/4 to a 8/8 killing the Desecration. This ability as far as I understand at least can be used as many times as you have mana for a turn. The other tricks ill let you play with the concept and come up with more tricks. Thank you for reading and please comment on this deck on ways to improve it and constructive criticism.
