Alright, so i have a B/G Midrange deck ((That honesly seems to be turning into more aggro then midrange)) that i'm running Jarad in. However, most of the times, i don't have enough cards in my graveyard ((From exiling/scavenging them)) for him to be much more then a 3/3. Is he worth it?

Most of the creatures in the deck are hardly worth saccing to Jarad, Golgari Lich Lord which is where a lot of his usefulness actually comes from. He is better in a deck that has Nemesis of Mortals or other larger creatures to sac to him. a good combo is Grisly Salvage followed by Jarad, Golgari Lich Lord and a Nemesis of Mortals + monstrosity and then sac it to Jarad, Golgari Lich Lord after swinging, which if it wasn't blocked would be game. your deck is much more aggro based, and since you have Scavenging Ooze (who I don't actually think is very useful in scavenge) you won't be able to make him big enough to run in the deck. A better creature would be Desecration Demon or Reaper of the Wilds who both add good abilities, with Desecration Demon being a large body for cheap, and Reaper of the Wilds giving card advantage and being annoying to remove.
