Jund Snake Midrange

Standard BRG (Jund)

FunkBooster


Sideboard


Pretty self explanatory, a lower curve Snake brew. There aren't any particularly complex interactions here, but I enjoy Jund more than the Sultai or G/B builds for Winding Constrictor. This deck shares a framework with those two, swapping out blue in favor of red. While we lose access to counter spells, The Scarab God, and in some cases Torrential Gearhulk, we gain access to Harnessed Lightning, Magma Spray, Abrade, Chandra, Torch of Defiance, Glorybringer and Unlicensed Disintegration. This opens up a very strong removal suite and brings some game-ending bombs to the table, and allows us to answer every major deck in RIX standard. Thanks to Winding Constrictor also providing extra counters to you as a player, I've incorporated a fairly robust energy sub-theme. Constrictor provides extra energy in the cases of cards like Glint-Sleeve Siphoner, Harnessed Lightning, and even Aether Hub, extra +1/+1 counters for Jadelight Ranger and Walking Ballista, and both for Bristling Hydra. The only non-synergistic creatures are Glorybringer and Rhonas the Indomitable, but Glorybringer is evasive and can disrupt the enemy board while Rhonas the Indomitable is strong on both attack and defense and can help push some damage through a clogged board. The deck also curves beautifully, and can function independently of Constrictor if you aren't drawing any. Any thoughts/suggestions are welcome, especially for the sideboard. Cheers!
