I had fun goldfishing, but my real issue is, with no disruption, this deck is auto-lose vs any form of combo. You really don't need stuff like vexing devil or do-nothings like jarad's orders. Probably cut those for some Thoughtseize or Inquisition of Kozilek ?

card:Jarad's Orders is amazing for this deck. He search's out 2x Squee, Goblin Nabob and puts one into my hand and the grave, effectively giving Lotleth Troll +3+3 after my next upkeep.
I will take out Vexing Devil though. What should I out in? Thoughtseize or Inquisition of Kozilek ?

I'd play Thoughtseize because this is an aggrieved deck and the life doesn't matter much.

Look at how fast modern is and ask yourself: "would anyone play a 4 mana card that gives a creature a +1/+1 counter immediately, then 2 +1/+1 counters every turn?"
There are very few configurations of jarad's orders that is better than just running out a vengevine on turn 4 (keep in mind, turn 4 vengevine isn't even that great a play), and almost 0 configurations without a lotleth troll in play. BloodBraid Elf is probably x10000 times better as it gives you immediate card advantage. Any beatdown deck in the jund color's should really just start with x4 Bloodbraid Elf , x4 Tarmogoyf , x4 Lightning Bolt .
Also, if you haven't had a chance to play it, deathrite shaman is much much much better than gravecrawler, especially when you are so light on zombies.
Keep goldfishing and see how often you can win on the 4th turn. If its not over at LEAST 60%, then you become just food for combo (which go off as early as turn 3) without an adequate disruption package.

i have to agree, card:Jarad's Orders and Squee, Goblin Nabob is cool, but not really good

You say you've tested v.s. modern decks on the site but have you ever played v.s. affinity? If not I present mine as fodder, deck:domo-arigato-mr-roboto.

And no, I did not do it against yours. I just went to the list of modern decks, and playtested against some highly rated decks. Didn't see yours :P.

Affinity is a fairly common archetype. Cheap fast creatures and massive pain. Vault Skirge is an ALL-STAR.

So you think -2 card:Jarad's Orders +2 Thoughtseize would be better?
October 27, 2012 12:25 p.m.
Yea, and if you're going to make an SB start with 2 more Thoughtseize there as well.

Very nice +1. I've had this deck up for awhile deck:modern-golgombies. Its actually a bit similar to yours but with a few key differences. You should check it out!

Modern Jund is a very well-refined archetype considering it made up 30% of the most recent pro tour. A good example (as well as some other decks to practice against) are in this article

If you wanna replace squee, Veilborn Ghoul is another zombie worth considering. You also might wanna drop a few lands, since most of your stuff is cheap cheap cheap. Ever consider Nameless Inversion for some removal? It kill tribal decks and boosts your goyf.
