Even if you could support it, it's not clear whether the upside is high enough to go through the trouble. I feel like this card could have had its costs tweaked for bestow and cmc. It dies to so many things in various fashions that I am not sure what the purpose is other than flavor. On the flip side, the foils must look insanely awesome given the art. | ||

The WUBRG bestow guy amuses me, if I open that thing in a pack I'm going to go deep, 5c was my fav deck in DGR draft not sure how well itll work out in theros though. | ||

Something like this: 4 Lightning Bolt 4 Path to Exile 4 Pain Kami 4 Dark Confidant 4 Lightning Helix 2 Chained to the Rocks 4 Goblin Guide 2 Extirpate 3 Marsh Flats 2 Arid Mesa 2 Godless Shrine 2 Sacred Foundry 3 Swamp 1 Mountain 3 Plains 2 AEther Vial 4 Death's Shadow 4 High Priest of Penance 2 Gloom Surgeon 2 Blind Obedience 2 Blood Crypt I want Tithe Drinkers in there to stabilize around 4 life, I'm just not sure where they fit. | ||

That said, that list looks pretty fun lol. Why so many basics? | ||

That said, that list looks pretty fun lol. Why so many basics? Haha, I'm just using the Save-to-clipboard function, sorry! On basics: because I can fetch the shocks early, and once I stabilize low, I don't want to take more damage I might go up to 8 fetches though, landbase wasn't really settled after I added deathblade. Sideboard cards: 4x Condemn for anything with creatures. Seriously, fuck creatures. 4x Gutteral Response for anything blue. Seriously, fuck blue. 3x Hide//Seek for Chalice. Possibly Wear//Tear. My local meta is affinity heavy, so I'll run 4x Shattering Spree And again, I really want 4x Tithe Drinker main, I just don't know what to cut! | ||

Honestly I bet Deathrite is better than extirpate and vial in that list so I'd cut 2 vial 2 extirpate for 4 DRS. Cut a basic or 2 for a green shock or 2. Also some kind of hand disruption turn 1 to set up for turn 2 bob/nu-bob seems very attractive so I'd try to fit some inquisitions in (or thoughtsieze but the life-pay seems pretty heavy already). Dunno, I'm just pulling this outta my ass. Again, list seems pretty fun. | ||

First, I want to have my threats (cool stuff I want to play Jund for): Domri Rade, Ghor-Clan Rampager, Xenagos, the Reveler, Reaper of the Wilds, Underworld Cerberus, Stormbreath Dragon Then I want cheap removal / disruption to help me get to my dudes: Abrupt Decay, Augur Spree, Mizzium Mortars, Thoughtseize, Hero's Downfall, Anger of the Gods Maybe I want some ramping / fixing / a nice defense against aggro: Sylvan Carytid For a mana base I'll probably need a full set of shocks, and maybe some scry lands? I dunno anything about mana bases. So I end up with something like 4 Sylvan Carytid 4 Ghor-Clan Rampager 4 Reaper of the Wilds 4 Underworld Cerberus 2 Stormbreath Dragon 2 Domri Rade 2 Xenagos, the Reveler 4 Thoughtseize 2 Abrupt Decay 2 Mizzum Mortars 2 Anger of the Gods (sideboard only?) 2 Augur Spree (I like that it doubles as pump spell but maybe not reasonable?) 2 Hero's Downfall (Maybe dreadbore is good here?) 2 Rakdos's Return 4 Overgrown Tomb 4 Stomping Ground 4 Blood Crypt ? Temples of Scrying ? Swamps for t1 Thoughtseize So how's my general thought process / card choice? As for card quantities, I have no idea what combinations of removal to have. As for lands I think I want a mix of temples and basics since I want to reasonably hit the t4 t5 plays, but I heard temples really help smooth out draws. | ||

I would take out Augur Spree and just put in more of the other removal. Augur Spree doesn't let you buff Stormbreath, and is pretty weak. Your deck seems a little slow, so I would keep mainboard Anger of the Gods, and might even take out Mortars. So maybe -2 Mortars, -2 Augur Spree, +1 Anger, +2 Abrupt Decay, +1 Hero's Downfall. Mortars would probably be a good sideboard card though Domri isn't good in this deck because you have so many non-creature spells. Xenagos might be bad too. Between taking out these two and Ghor-Clan rampager, you could add two more Stormbreath and a set of Polukranos (or Deadbridge Goliath for dat budget). Also look into maybe playing one or two Scavenging Ooze since you're killing so many dudes. I'm pretty noob at magic, so this is just what stood out to me. Here is a decklist that got second in a tournament recently, might want to check it out for ideas: http://www.mtgtop8.com/event?e=6285&d=236135 | ||
