Jund +1/+1 Counters
Standard forum
Posted on April 15, 2013, 3:47 p.m. by Shinkari
So I've been looking at spoiler cards for Dragon's Maze and have been theory crafting kind of. Looking at Exava Rakdos Blood Witch, Corpsejack Menace, and Crowned Ceratok. And the ability to easily put +1/+1 counters on creatures with Unleash/Evolve/Scavenge I think Jund +1/+1 counters would be very strong.
It would essentially be a mid-range deck that revolves around creatures entering the battlefield with +1/+1 counters so that they get haste and trample.
Discuss the idea and suggest cards for this deck I will update the post with the suggested deck.
Jund +1/+1 Counters:
Creatures:
3x Exava Rakdos Blood Witch http://forums.mtgsalvation.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=141188&d=1365570640 (main engine of the deck)
2x Corpsejack Menace (make creatures stronger from their +1/+1 counters)
3x Spawn of Rix Maadi (6/4 Haste/Trample for 5)
3x Slitherhead (Free +1/+1 counters for creatures without a way of getting +1/+1 counters on themselves)
2x Crowned Ceratok (gives creatures trample)
2x Savageborn Hydra http://forums.mtgsalvation.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=141373&d=1366039131 (The deck's bomb creature comes in and ends the game, and if it doesn't then it gets stronger and continues trying to end the game)
3x Experiment One (early drop that get's scary and can regenerate itself)
Instant:
3x Putrefy (solid removal with GB1)
3x Dreadbore (solid removal with RB)
4x Burst of Strength (puts more +1/+1 counters on creatures and let's them block if they don't have unleash)
Sorcery:
2x Flesh//Blood http://mythicspoiler.com/dgm/cards/fleshbloodwide.html (make a creature really scary then have it deal damage, goes really well with Savageborn Hydra)
4x Farseek (ramp)
Land:
4x Blood Crypt

y no Olivia Voldaren ? it can make counters on its own

Olivia Voldaren can put +1/+1 counters on herself, or I can exile Slitherhead for free and do the same effect.
I'd more of use her to take control of opponent's creatures but that is a really high cost do so

I run that very deck, except its more aggro than midrange, and it works swimmingly. increasing savagey and blessing of nature are both excellent with corpsejack menace. I prefer stromkirk noble > experiment one for a 1-drop, but both are very usable. I just like stromkirk because of the anti humans ability, and also I feel like evolve can fizzle out eventually. Unleash is not my favorite ability, its OK, but i dont like being unable to block, with anything. I realize most of my suggestions are from ISD, and most of the things youve listed are of RTR block, but theres still a lot of time until ISD rotates out. Here is my Jund +1/+1 counter deck, maybe it can give you some ideas. http://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/jundy-doom/
