Hello folks,

Here is my attempt to upgrade the Golgari Guild kit I've bought into an EDH deck that resembles the idea of the original guild kit: dredging for all the value.

The strategy:

1. Ramp and Fill the graveyard with dredge cards (Golgari Grave-troll, Golgari thug, shambling shell, stinkweed imp etc.) and other cards that dump your cards in the graveyard (gather the pack, glowspore shaman, nyxweaver, satyr wayfinder).

2. Find the winning synergies with your tutors (fauna shaman & mausoleum secrets) or with your recursion cards (golgari findbroker, vigor mortis, eternal witness).

3. Use the winning synergies

   • Make a bunch of tokens with Izoni/Spider spawning and make use of an overrun effect (Beastmaster Ascension, Thunderfoot Baloth)

   • Make a bunch of tokens/have a bunch of creatures and sacrifices them to deal damage with one of the aristocrats

   • Dealing a bunch of damage (Lotleth giant, Torment of Hailfire, Jarard)

Any help or recommendation of stables/winning strategies that I should include/change is greatly appreciated

Cheers !

Edit: One particular thing that is really lacking in this deck are some good card draw options since I am often empty-handed after a few dredge turns. Maybe more things like Fecundity/Evolutionary Leap/ Grim haruspex would work, or just instant card draw like Harmonize / Rhiskar's Expertise or something (some creatures can easily become huge by dredging/discarding).
