Golgari Control needs help fighting Blood Baron

Deck Help forum

Posted on Oct. 29, 2013, 3:34 p.m. by Nigeltastic

My current standard deck, Green + Black = Kill & Smack literally cannot touch Blood Baron of Vizkopa in any way... Is there anything in my colors that will allow me to kill him? None of my creatures can even block him, much less my removal touch him...

Devour Flesh is excellent. Lifebane Zombie looks to deal with it before it comes in. Arbor Colossus is inherently bigger, unless his buff is active (I've never seen him have flying, mind you). Gaze of Granite , perhaps. Scavenging Ooze is mainboard worthy, it's usually bigger than Baron.

Really though, I would reach for Devour Flesh and Lifebane Zombie , since you can't do Mizzium Mortars . A lot of the time, though, Scavenging Ooze looks to be bigger than Baron. Just my two cents.

Yeah, I completely blanked on Devour Flesh , and I don't know why. I think that'll definitely be the ticket for my sideboard as it also is good against any sort of hexproof deck. Thanks for the help!!

Scavenging Ooze paired with Mutant's Prey are excellent together against Blood Baron of Vizkopa decks that feature multiple copies of them! Good luck!
