It looks like a fairly solid deck, I just have to ask what the point of Exava, Rakdos Blood Witch is in the deck. I can't seem to understand what your using her for, is it just the 4/4 with haste? If so, Might I recommend moving Mistcutter Hydra to the mainboard?

Dictate of the Twin Gods for surprise wins? If you swing with something for, "not quite lethal" they may not block, and then BAM! Twice the damage for the win.

The problem is that the cost is similar's to Stormbreath Dragon and because he has haste they will figure it out

i get what your saying there mate, but if your already attacking, you cant exactly flash in and swing with a stormbreath after blocks are declared... Its your deck and if it works as is, then thats all that matters.

I like the idea of you deck, but some of your card choices are puzzling.
Why Exava, Rakdos Blood Witch ? Desecration Demon is a better card, but if you're wanting something that doesn't require B B mana, I'd suggest Reaper of the Wilds . She's WAY better than Exava when paired with removal.
I'd flip the number of Xenagods and Xenagos. Your deck doesn't focus on RG devotion nearly enough to justify 3 of a card that's both legendary and indestructible. One god ensures you never draw an extra when you don't need it, and you'd be getting more of the planeswalker which helps you cast big creatures and go for big monstrosities.
Instead of Doom Blade , Ultimate Price and Hero's Downfall , just run 3 Dreadbore and 3 Putrefy . These two cover more options and don't require two black mana.
As of midnight tonight, Mana Confluence and Temple of Malady will be legal. I'd highly recommend both of these for your deck.
Cheers!

Exava is good for a four-drop 4/4 haste with first strike
i have reaper but you need a lot of mana open to protect her, otherwise she's just a four-drop that will get a removal at the end of turn
DONT! ever say that you cant have too many xenagos
when it comes to removals, the meta is full of creatures and most of them arnt black
your land suggestions are good but i wish i could get them

Its not that easy to get shock these days because they will leave standart and get their price raised. if you want a shock yo need to give a shock, that's how it works these days

raysabucsfan being the "check out my channel" in tappedout is as much as frustrating

I've built a similar deck built for post rotation. Desecration Demon and all your removal rotates out. You should check mine out for ideas. Dragons and Hydras and Garruk Oh My!

Still raysabucsfan I have little respect for those who bring their YouTube culture of "Check out my channel" into TappedOut. It is a very frustrating act

Honestly get rid of the red make this a two color deck around garruk or side board garruk because he is not a good enough card

Not to mention building a "post rotation deck" is one of the most pointless things you can do. You're building with only 60% of the card pool for when rotation actually happens, brewing for that standard is pointless until we know what Kahns contains.
As for OP's deck, I don't know why you're mentioning Garruk, as he wouldn't slot into this deck well at all, to the point where it'd require a huge restructuring. But what you have now is solid enough. Golgari Charm main is kind of awkward, as is Hydra Broodmother as a card in general. Some card choices could be better, it just overall feels like a worse Jund Monsters list than what people are already playing.
Also your description contains this nugget "more defensive capabilities towards raping out to Garruk" >.>

im afraid that if you do not have any understandings for the potentials of Garruk, Apex Predator then im afraid that coming here and spit out your negative feedback would not be helpful by any means either to me or anyone else you've told these opinions too

I feel jund is a very strong deck and it is by no means "Dead". Jund monsters is 1 of the top decks in standard currently. A really good friend of mine was running jund monsters for a couple of star city opens and always made top 8 or top 4. This was the list he was playing hope this helps or gives you some ideas. I also am getting ready for my shops game day I will be playing my junk midrange that I played in my shops last game day (Journey to Nyx) that I ended up going 8-0 and winning. Hope this was helpful and good luck with game day don't listen to others saying a deck is dead.

So, what's your win ratio? I've been trying to run something similar as a toolbox with Chord, but it hasn't been working as well as I would like. I have all the cards that you have in yours, save for a couple variations... (no Abrupt Decay, probably put in some Putrefy... no Vraska, but I do have a Garruk, Apex Predator, etc)... one thing I'd do is switch out the Polukranos for 4 Genesis Hydra for the purposes of fetching anything off the top 6 cards. That way even if they counter the Hydra, I still have a free creature/planeswalker. What do you think?

Sideboard the Golgari Charm and Sire Of Insanity . Put 2 more Hero's Downfall . Get three more Temple of Malady and perhaps one more Stomping Ground . Deck= complete.

flavor fail it's called superbros but the cover picture when I look is Nissa who is a female and the deck has more female walkers than males.
