G/R Mulch Looting

Standard*

Instant (3)

Uses Faithless Looting and Mulch to power a very strong graveyard-based deck.

The decklist needs lots of tweaking, but I think the choices are quite solid.

Llanowar Elves and Birds of Paradise allow for a fast start, and are easily creature fodder when you don't need them later game. Birds of Paradise can also act as an alternate win-con with wolf run if you need the flying so something like Ghoultree can defend.

When I first saw Ghoultree, I just thought that it would never work out as I wanted, but it is surprisingly good and can be put down as early as the third turn.

Boneyard Wurm, Splinterfright, and Kessig Cagebreakers are all amazing when you're throwing this many creatures into your graveyard. Also, Kessig Cagebreakers is a beast with Postmorten Lunge.

Careful Study was already played in legacy, but Faithless Looting is strictly better, and just so happens to be in the same color as Grim Lavamancer! Lavamancer is also played in legacy, but although it's in M12, it isn't really that great, because legacy has fetch lands and such. Faithless Looting + Grim Lavamancer = amazing. This is because looting gets two cards into the graveyard for you to exile, and it can also get rid of any extra lavamancer, because it always sucks to have more than one. Also, any creatures that basically serve as utilities are always great in decks with Lhurgoyf-type abilities.

Kessig Wolf Run works really well in wolf run ramp decks because they can easily tutor one when they come to the time in a game when they need one, so they don't have to run more than 2. Kessig Wolf Run gets kinda sketchy in other decks because you can't rely on getting it consistently, and having too much colorless mana is always bad. In this deck, Mulch allows you to tutor up wolf runs, and Faithless Looting lets you get rid of the extras.

Any +1's and advice is greatly appreciated!
