I prepared two different Yawgmoth builds simultaneously:

1) The build shown above is geared for strong tables. It is pretty powerful while containing a lot of cards I would not like to draw when sitting at a high power table.

2) The second build is there when facing said high powered decks. Most of the cards in the Sideboard will come in when transforming to this version, replacing most cards with a high cmc or the rather interactive ones to bend the build even more towards combo-control.

3) The deck and both builds were downgraded intentionally. This especially meant not including Mana Vault and Mana Crypt.

major kill combos

1. • Yawgmoth + two creatures with undying + Blood Artist or Zulaport Cutthroat
2. • Bolas' Citadel + Sensei's Divining Top + Aetherflux Reservoir
3. • Gravecrawler (while having another Zombie in play) + Phyrexian Altar + Aetherflux Reservoir
4. • Gravecrawler (while having another Zombie in play) + Phyrexian Altar + Gravestorm

control combos While an active Yagmoth will take care of creatures, the deck is also able to cut the other players from any colored mana short of Black mana by using Contamination. An important peace to set this up is Final Parting, which allows you to search for both Contamination and Reassembling Skeletons. Contamination could also be fueled by any token producing enchantment.
