Seems solid enough. I was thinking about building a golgari deck myself. What do you think about Corpsejack Menace and card:Death's Presence?

I felt that both of those we're too slow for my specific deck, which is more zombie oriented. Corpsejack has a home somewhere else. But Death's Presence i think you'll find is just too slow for standard.

Thinking that Jarad needs to retire, wondering what else might be better.

well Arbor Elf it is, now for anyone who is actually reading this, I have a big question. I have only 2 Arbor Elf as is, and it would be more effective if there were 4. So I went through my plays last night and found that the most useless card in my deck right now is Lotleth Troll I was thinking I could scrap the Trolls all together, add another 2 Elves and another Increasing Savagery and it might be more effective, but my friend strongly disagrees, says the Trolls should be my powerhouse.. PLEASE HELP. I'm kinda stumped right now.

Your mana base needs to be tighter since your playing geralf's. -2 forest, -2 rogues passage, +4 swamp, or over the two forests use 2 golgari guildgates. Appetite for brains is better on SB. Go down to 3 rancor, the 4th is dead since they return to your hand. Add another abrubt decay main. Also, veilborn ghoul is really sweet with lily and troll.

the mana base is fine, although i've been thinking Rogue's Passage needs to retire for Cavern of Souls. i've play tested this about 300-400 times and never had a problem with the mana. Also I hate the Guildgates so much I feel like if one's in my opening hand it's just a dead hand in a deck with such low average converted mana cost. I agree with Rancor, I will lower it down to 3. Veilborn Ghoul doesn't work that well and is too high of a drop for this deck, I don't want anything with a cmc over 3. Appetite for Brains takes out scary stuff like Falkenrath Aristocrat, Thundermaw Hellkite, Huntmaster of the Fells Flip, or Jace, Memory Adept, as well as lets me see whats in my opponents hand, if it's not required it is Sideboarded game 2. Deathrite Shaman is a powerhouse, no matter what there are cards going into a graveyard somewhere, he'll heal me or damage my opponent while removing them. He is also amazing against Reanimator, anything that runs Snapcaster Mage or even other zombie decks. remember the sideboard too, game 2 I can sideboard out a Deathrite Shaman easy. Mainboarding another Abrupt Decay isn't a terrible idea, although about %90 of top 8 G/B Zombie decks i've seen run 1 and sideboard the rest in game 2 if needed.
