My standard Golgari budget deck idea, with what additions I want to eventually make to play in the weekly tournament.

1/13 bought x3 Stitcher's Supplier , x3 Plague Mare , found x3 Reclamation Sage , x3 Llanowar Elves , x2 Demon of Catastrophes , x2 Nullhide Ferox , x1 Underrealm Lich , x1 Izoni, Thousand-Eyed , x2 Ritual of Soot , x3 Thorn Lieutenant , and I packed x1 Assassin's Trophy

I took out the Gravedigger , Pilfering Imp , Torgaar, Famine Incarnate , Undercity Necrolisk , Vicious Offering , Vraska's Stoneglare , and a Swamp and a Forest to add everything but the Reclamation Sage , Plague Mare , and Ritual of Soot , which I added mainly as sideboard cards.

So on 1/17/19, I played in a Standard tournament, and went 2-0 and ended up facing my friend in the finals, we agreed to split the winnings and not play the final round.

Before the match, I bought Vraska, Golgari Queen , and Vraska, Relic Seeker .

First matchup, mono blue not really sure but he had multiple copies of sleep and some merfolk wizards and counters. I went in first game with the lineup above but with Llanowar Elves, and Rituals of Soot in, and barely won with 4 hp swinging two creatures to his one that couldn't block both. Second game, I sideboarded out the Ritual of Soots, one Llanowar Elf, for another Necrotic Wound, and Plaguecrafters. I won the second but I admittedly got lucky and that second game saw me playing all three planeswalkers.

Second matchup, I sideboarded out the Plaguecrafters for Golgari Raiders before the first game. He was playing some red black blue with counters, damage spells, and creatures with effects. I won with him getting out a few creatures but ultimately just removing a lot of mine which lead to me bringing out I think the Demon and the Nullhide to finish. Second game, I sideboarded in Swarm Guildmages to try to gain health from his burn, and took out the Raiders for Plaguecrafters since he didn't seem to have many creatures. I won it pretty easily.

With the winnings from splitting the finals, I got another Assassin's Trophy, and I'm going to try out a slightly different build without Llanowar Elves and with Deathgorge Scavenger . I didn't feel like mana was a problem, I also took out a swamp and a forest before I played the matches in the tournament. Also taking out Charnel Troll and Nullhide Ferox . Added another Glowspore Shaman and also added Arguel's Blood Fast  .
