Decided to try my hand at blindly cobbling together a Golgari token deck built around Nest of Scarabs and -1/-1 counters. Keep in mind, this whole thing, as with most of my decks, came together a bit carelessly but it's also probably one of my few pretty competent casual decks. Nest of Scarabs compounds with Parallel Lives to double your scuttly boi output in a hurry, and that rate grows pretty fast as you drop more Nests. Almost every creature in here is built around the Amonkhet block's -1/-1 Black mechanic, meaning so long as you can drop a nest of scarabs pretty early on, you should never want for Scarab tokens. I've thrown in one or two Second Harvest cards for a pretty ridiculous token doubling, and if you can time it all right, Gruesome Fate serves as a brutal finisher once you get your creature numbers high enough.

Quick note: Yes, I know there's a strange amount of zombies mixed in here. Currently, this is based on the deck I have so far. I'll be updating this accordingly. Yes, Grim Strider has no place in this deck. We all make mistakes sometimes.

Overall, I'm looking for ways to better stack with the Nest of Scarabs+Parallel Lives+Second Harvest combo, but I want to keep this a casual deck.
