Deck: Jund Dinosaurs v.2 Midrange strategy focused on capitalizing the powerful synergy of the big-body dinosaurs. The deck is equipped with many answers to meta calls to make short work of potential early Standard. The removal/control package needs to be adjusted accordingly. To accompany our big bodies we are equipped with many burn spells to help finish out games.
After some brief testing I cut some cards I was not terribly impressed with and tried to tune it up a bit and make it more efficient overall. This build seems to support the overall plan of the deck a lot better without losing any of the utility, as well as cutting down on some of the black costs. Currently mostly looking for help tuning up the mana base. In most of my games I haven't had too many problems getting my mana early on, however I think I have just been lucky in that regard and I worry about not being on green early enough in future matches. It is important to get out
Drover of the Mighty as early as possible as it really makes the deck
fire off like crazy. It's a tricky mana base because of the fact that we want 1 black on turn one but then immediately after want green as well, and by turn three, or four at the latest, we want double red. Drover helps a lot with fixing, but seeing as there are only 4 in the deck we aren't always guaranteed we'll get it.
Chandra, Torch of Defiance has really impressed me so far and I'm enjoying having her in the deck. I'm adding
Vraska, Relic Seeker to this build as it has been recommended to me many times and I have seen in it in other dino builds floating around. However that is not something I'm entirely sold on just yet, though it does seem quite interesting. Vraska seems incredibly strong, but what she does for this deck specifically just feels a bit slow.
The dino package I have in here is pretty solid in my opinion.
Deathgorge Scavenger has just been insane, easily shutting down all graveyard strategies I have encountered while supporting the aggro gameplan. I do really want a fourth
Regisaur Alpha but I haven't been able to find space. Upon
release if the meta shifts heavily to all-in aggro then I may drop
Duress and
Carnage Tyrant from the main to bring in 4 of
Otepec Huntmaster and raise the Siege Dinos from 3 to 4.
All thoughts and suggestions are appreciated!
