This deck is not budget! it's only like 15 bucks cheaper than your friends. You should remove the tag sorry to say. Overall some feedback I can give is lose the Scavenging Ooze ! Everything in your deck is pretty solid in black, drawing scavenging ooze is going to be a waste of card draw and space in your hand as well as Woodland Cemetery cause you really don't need it. You only really have it for the ooze and that's it. That in itself well cut down about 30 to 35 bucks off this deck too. You need more green cards cause this deck doesn't feel golgari to me without more green in it.
Overall it's pretty solid, a card that can work in here too is Blood Artist !

budget means it was built under a budget. and it was
February 4, 2014 6:42 p.m.
it costs 30 bucks. I don't wipe my but with 100's you know
February 4, 2014 6:52 p.m.
And sideboard Creeping Corrosion instead of Relic Putrescence .
February 4, 2014 6:52 p.m.
Fine then, if $300 is too much for your tiny budget @$$, then use Gray Ogre , Goblin Hero , and Raging Bull .
That budget enough for you?

Now this is budget! I know that budget under your circumstances but say someone wants to make this deck, it's going to cost him/her 80 bucks to make but at the way you had it before. Awesome deck, you should sideboard Dark Betrayal when you play against a black deck, or Go for the Throat !

now how do i make it golgari again so I can side Creeping Corrosion ?
February 5, 2014 5:59 p.m.
I also have a playset of Abrupt Decay at home so I guess I could make it greener by switching it with one of my kill spells

4 Forest isn't enough. You'll have issues casting Lotleth Troll and Putrid Leech , especially on curve.

Much better, but sideboarding's an issue. All you're doing is hating out Affinity and having the capacity to hurt black decks. What'll you take out against Affinity, and what about R/G tron or stuff like that? Personally, I'd use Rude Awakening . In case of an Affinity rush, you can block with your lands too, and you can animate all of your lands at once to swing for lethal.

4 Woodland Cemetery still isn't enough... all you did was trade 4 lands that only produce G for 4 lands that produce B or G...
February 5, 2014 11:15 p.m.
You have a ton of BB and BBB costs... anything other than the buddy lands and basics that are budget will ETB tapped. Up that budget and throw in 4x Overgrown Tomb ?
February 5, 2014 11:17 p.m.
ETB tapped
ETB untapped (both can be found for <$2)
February 5, 2014 11:23 p.m.
it's ok. my land crisis is over. no more need for non-basics
February 5, 2014 11:26 p.m.
Your deck will run very inconsistently with lots of basics. The more Forest you add the more unreliable your B mana pool is. The more Swamps you run the chances of casting your 2 drops reliably decreases. Sounds like you got it under control with your 4 buddy lands though. Good luck.
