Sideboard



The guildpact is breaking and more guilds are on the brink of war. Amidst the chaos, Varolz, the Scar-Striped has found allies in the Rakdos Cult and is preparing for war.


This is a Jund Aggro deck that allows you to throw down creatures very early to deal damage to your opponent. All suggestions are welcome and I love constructive criticism!

Creatures such as Strangleroot Geist and Diregraf Ghoul come out on the field very early to deal massive damage while helping the cute little Experiment One evolve.

Watch out! Vexing Devil is back and better than ever! Not only can he blow up in your opponent's face dealing a chunk of damage (That is if your opponent takes the damage, which they should) Varolz, the Scar-Striped can use his body to pump up your creatures on the board.

With these creatures having low toughness it is easy for them to die to mid-range creatures or removal. That's where Varolz, the Scar-Striped comes in and gives them a second use; scavenging to allow your small creatures to become big threats within seconds.

Varolz, the Scar-Striped has also called upon the might of the undead. Lotleth Troll, Gravecrawler and Diregraf Ghoul have come to aid him. Gravecrawler has become suitable fodder for Lotleth Troll by discarding him, but then he can come back while any of these zombies are on the field, then serving as Varolz, the Scar-Striped fodder to regenerate!

While Varolz, the Scar-Striped controls the Horde, he has given Exava, Rakdos Blood Witch the important task of leading them into the fray of battle instantly with her ability to give other creatures haste with +1/+1 counters on them. This Witch becomes a big threat instantly using haste, and she can take out most creatures with ease without sustaining any damage herself with first strike.

While these two legendary creatures do heavy work themselves, they cant always deal with every creature and that's when Putrefy, Mizzium Mortars and Dreadbore come into play in order to wipe the enemies board or remove creatures that Varolz, the Scar-Striped and Exava, Rakdos Blood Witch can't deal with.

When times get rough for the Horde, Domri Rade decides to help them out by giving them potential card draw, removal ability and giving them the power to hit harder and stay alive longer with his emblem.

If all these creatures are still having issues dealing damage, Ghor-Clan Rampager is here to break through the lines by bloodrushing your attacking creatures and making them unstoppable.

For those that uphold the law and the light, a group of Knight of Infamy s have decided to lend their hand in the fight whenever you see fit.

With all this early aggression, Varolz will have an easy time getting rid of his opponents and so will you with this deck. Fight for the Horde!

Hey guys, thanks for all the suggestions so far it has been a real help! I know some of you are questioning why I do not have Falkenrath Aristocrat in my deck. The reason is just because it is just to expensive for me at the moment and I'm not willing to invest that much money. I know that a lot of you believe that she will increase in price over the next few years (which I agree with) but I mostly play standard so I would only have her sitting in a trade binder. Exava, Rakdos Blood Witch is an excellent replacement for her just because of her synergy with counters as well as first strike with haste as a 4/4 is insane in my opinion.
