A golgari value engine utilizing Baba's ability with as few sacs as possible!

Gameplan

Like the best golgari decks, this one is all about the grind! Accumulating incremental value from all our resilient permanents, we slowly turn the cogs towards victory.

Ideally we want to find any of the following lands; Blinkmoth Nexus, Mishra's Factory, Mishra's Foundry or Frostwalk Bastion, lands that can become artifac-creature-lands. Sacing them to Baba Lysaga, Night Witch's ability will give us the full value, for just one card.

Other lands that can become land-creatures are good as well, and can be combined with some of our "Sac fodder" cards for the 3 required types. EX Lair of the Hydra+Rancor, Tree of Tales+Fortitude, Treetop Village + Ordeal of Nylea.

Mid / lategame, we cycle lands back and forth between play and grave, and utilize untappers (Quirion Ranger etc) to keep the ball rolling. Since we work so heavilly with lands, the deck leans strongly into a lands-matter theme: Tireless Tracker, The Gitrog Monster etc.

Notable interactions

• Ordeal of Nylea does not care how it is sacrificed, meaning we can sac it to Baba for some ramp!

• Wishclaw Talisman can be sacced in response to its acivated abillity, giving only us the value!

• Treacherous Blessing and Demonic Lore are bascally just FREE DRAWS!

• Quirion Ranger can untap on all your opponents turns aswell!

• Thanks to our heavy carddraw, Kodama of the East Tree can almost always put something down on its trigger. Even if its just a land, that is helpfull as we eat our own lands with Baba Lysaga, Night Witch.

• Crashing Drawbridge is the MVP in the deck. Its one of the few ways to give your team haste in golgari. Pair with Lightning Greaves to get a hasty haste-giver!

• Combo nr. 1 Ashaya, Soul of the Wild + Quirion Ranger + Lightning Greaves Scince all creatures will be lands as well, we can tap Ashaya for mana. Then we return Ranger to untap Ashaya, and then recast Ranger for a land ETB. Pair with Greaves to get a tap out of Ranger and we also get infinite green mana.

• Combo nr. 2 Kodama of the East Tree + Tireless Provisioner + Golgari Rot Farm Standard Kodama combo. Blinks Rot farm, making tokens from Provisioner, triggering Kodama to put down our land again. Rinse and repeat.

Wincons

• Most often we claim the win by slowely draining our opponents life with Baba Lysaga, Night Witch and Zulaport Cutthroat.

• We can beat face with massive amounts of tokens from Scute Swarm and Worm Harvest. Even better if these creatures are boosted by Blossoming Bogbeast

• Branch of Boseiju   or Ashaya, Soul of the Wild + Rancor can be used to have a big boi bonking bonanza!

• Scince we more often then not have a high life total, Command the Dreadhorde can grab alot of stuff! With good timeing, this becomes a straight forward win!

• Living Death! EIther it becomes a sac outlet to win with Zulaport Cutthroat etc, or gets back a large board since we really so heavily on our graveyard. If you have a Crashing Drawbridge in there, and some boots it becomes a straight out win.
