So here is my deck: deck:scavenge-rl

It is focused on milling using Mulch , Grisly Salvage , and Splinterfright and then reaping the benefits of Scavenge effects in the mid-to-late game.

In general it is decent, my issue is that it cannot handle populate/swarm decks. (or I may just not be running it properly in that match). My monsters are usually beefier than my opponents, but when they have that many blockers it makes it impossible to get through their defences. Splinterfright has trample, and that helps, but what do you recommend either siding or changing in the main to make my deck more prepared in such matchups?

I'm also open to play-style suggestions when facing these decks, I still do not have complete understanding of when to attack and when to leave my creatures untapped so that they can block. Any insight would be helpful. Thanks!

Use Rancor as a 3 or 4 of, especially if you are having trouble getting through their defenses. Couldn't find your deck either.
