[Standard] Scarabs Waste Nothing

Scarabs Waste Nothing

Esper Zombie deck that uses mill and exile tactics to utilize the powers of the scarab god. Sending cards to your opponent's grave and stealing health are two prominent mechanics in this build.

This is the 2nd God deck that I built. It has potential and can be very lethal when played right. Personally I feel that more counter spells would be good on the menu but I'll leave this one up to you all for discussion. Let me know what you all think.

Yeah I don't sleep much at night due to my job. I kinda just stay awake until I crash (which is usually around 3am). But thanks on the deck, what do you think of the build?

Exile the bat with The scarab god's ability. Now your 2/1 bat just became a 4/4 flyer with haste (if you paid the mana cost). And it's a zombie......

It's ok, I tend to do that to people. But you know I did do one last deck for the Locust God. It's Grixis.....

Would you like to take a look at the deck? I think it might stir your curiosity a bit. The deck is called feed the Locust.

I kind of thought bgu with Hapatra, Vizier of Poisons and decimator beetle would be an interesting center for The Scarab God to work around.  Deathtouch snake tokens to kill threats, Eternalize them into your army...  Nimble Obstructionist would work well either way to counter abilities and come back as a 4/4 flyer.

 I can see the Hapatra + beetle combo, but I'm not particularly sure as to her playing with the scarab god. Now if you played him with cruel reality then that's a different story...

Posted a potential deck idea earlier.  Cruel Reality is a bit expensive cmc without green for mana ramping...
