Putrefy!!!!!

Is anyone else as excited for the reprint of Putrefy in the Dragon's Maze block? That's the removal that I was waiting for with Golgari!!!! I mean, Murder is fine, but now I can run both and stomp with my Lotleth Troll like God intended.

Between that and Abrupt Decay I really think Golgari with be a formidable opponent when Innistrad rotates out and we only have Dragon's Maze and a core set to pull from.

I'll admit it is a bit underwhelming right now, unless you run it as a Zombies deck...and personally...F**ck that noise. (No offense to Zombies players]]

I'm looking forward to hopefully pulling a Rot Farm Skeleton in my prerelease as well as Putrefy , as it is a damn badass card. Skeletons first got Mortus Strider in Gatecrash as the first B/U Skeleton in all its awesomeness, and now this!

Huh, turns out I was wrong about Mortus Strider being the first B/U skeleton, I forgot about Kathari Remnant amongst a few others. Rot Farm Skeleton certainly will be the first B/G one, and RTR also had rakdos ringleader be the first B/R one! Skeleton love!

The Duel Decks Izzet vs Golgari Putrefy art is by far the superior, but the new art for Dragon's Maze looks decent too.

It gives Jund another great tool and allows Golgari decks to have instant speed kills when they need them. I know murder does it too, but the other versatility is nice to have, too.

This is cool... it will be a nice 1-2 of in Jund and Junk. I do not see Golgari being big what with the amazing manabases, and red and white just offer so much.

I'm already looking post rotation though, when we lose half the cards that make the mana bases so good for standard. Bant, for example will lose hinterland, glacial fortress, and sunpetal grove. Jund will lose cemetery, dragonskull, and the crag. 3 colors will be harder then I would think. But I also kinda like golgari either way and will tinker with it to see what's up even if its just casual

Yes, but there will be duals in Theros AND M13...
