Into the Depths of Hell - Jund Midrange (Standard)

Mainboard / Deck Strategy:
The deck has three main wincons: Master of Cruelties, Vraska, and beating the opponent to a pulp with Thundermaw, Descecration, and Sire. All the wincons benefit heavily from Kessig Wolf Run.

• Master of Cruelties relies pretty heavily on wiping the opponent's board of blockers, but is also amazing on the defensive as a first strike deathtouch that is hard to burn out. When paired with Wolf Run, it becomes a ridiculous first strike deathtouch trampler that the opponent really needs to block. If they don't and I can't burn them out, chances are I'll be able to Wolf Run him enough to get one point of damage through later.
• Vraska's strategy is very similar to Master of Cruelties, except that the tokens can be paired with Wolf Run for the win. If they can't deal with the tokens or wolf run mid to late game, it's a game ender.
• Beatdown works well with Desecration Demon, Thundermaw, and Sire of Insanity, especially with the Wolf Run.

Worst case scenario for my opponent would be:
Sire of Insanity landed and working, with Vraska slowly building up to her ultimate, and a Master of Cruelties eating away at their blockers, as well as with any removal I am bound to draw.

Worst case scenario for me would be:
Control matchup where I can't land any creatures / Vraska.

Sideboard Strategy:

• Graveyard answers:
  Groundseal: Anti-rites and Snapcaster tech
  Tormod's Crypt: General anti-graveyard tech
  Crypt Incursion: Anti-zombie / reanimator tech, also helps against aggro. Usually pushes the game out of reach for those decks.

• Control Tech:
  Duress
  Slaughter Games

• Misc. Answers:
  Witchbane Orb: Shuts down mill and burn decks (especially bonfire and Boros charm), most planeswalkers, and any "target player" spells (such as Devour Flesh or Far // Away)
  Blasphemous Act: one-of against token and creature-heavy decks where mass removal is needed
