Trying out a Jund Midrange.
I had a very pleasant experience with Tireless Tracker and Sin prodder and would really like to try them out in standard. Let me know what you think.

-----Baltimore Open------
After playing this past weekend at the Baltimore Open I found that my deck was lacking in a certain area. The deck ran better than I had hoped. Results were:
Round 1: Loss - 1-2 - B/W Eldrazi
Round 2: Win - 2-0 - B/W Control
Round 3: Win - 2-1 - G/R Ramp
Round 4: Win - 2-1 - B/W Control
Round 5: Loss - 1-2 - B/R Reanimator
Round 6: Loss - 1-2 - Mono Red Eldrazi
Drop
Things I liked:The Gitrog Monster: Fell in love with this card. Every time it hit the battlefield and stuck for a turn or 2 it did work. I mean like I ran away with the game. That card draw and extra land per turn makes a difference! (Specially when you have Drownyard Temple)Tireless Tracker: This guy was amazing as well. Did not have the same impact as The Gitrog Monster but when you get him out early and hit a few land drops and save those clues for later it made a difference when digging for answers.

: Champion all around. good early game and late game.
Things I didn't really like:Dragonlord Atarka: It felt like it was always a turn too late in this deck. there is no ramp so its turn 7 or later that it will make an appearance and that felt way too late. The times I could cast it, I was already in a winning position and was not needed.
Things I liked but need to change:Sin Prodder Card was amazing. felt great when it stuck for more than a turn but I don't feel it made as big of an impact as I wanted. It isn't what you want in a deck that is running a high land count. I feel it needs to be a card that is at the top of the curve in a deck that is running probably 21 lands.
04/11/2016: I made some changes to the deck to be a little more like my friends list. He did a lot better than me in the Baltimore open. I want to try his version to see how much of a difference it is to have Painful Truths over Read the Bones and increasing planeswalker/spell count.He also ran a few board wipes mainboard which I found interesting. So lets see how this handles!!!
If you like the list please give a +1 vote! Thanks.
