Jund is a powerhouse now and will be evermore so when Dragon's Maze drops.

they are fairly similar, important to note that naya has more ramp available to it with avacyns pilgriim, and then you also have segarda, host of herons the most annoying creature ever printed.

Well.. Naya Blitz is much more explosive then Gruul, but also much more high-variance, with many mulligans and a lot more luck-based games. Gruul, meanwhile, is slower but much more consistent. The popular Gruul decks atm are abandoning the 18-land setup and going for a higher curve with Arbor Elf , Domri Rade , Ghor-Clan Rampager , Thundermaw Hellkite , and Bonfire of the Damned .

thanks i like that nayas more resilient but i think it doesn't have that oomph that gruul has to finish games.
