EDIT: Decklist updated with multiple playtests, no jund matchups yet.

Chandra makes this deck work! But it seems I dont find immortal coil late game (which there usually isnt)

The more I play this deck the more I like it, but I dont find shambling remains usefull all the time, usually I wish I had a rat or inquiry put it in the graveyard, still, its a great beats burn deck. And its cheap to make!

Quest doesnt work with Unearth so its gone, +2 fetchlands, +2.... shambling i think

Beats arent fast enough vs beats, thinking Terminate...
Grim isnt what I thought it would be, thinking it down to 3, cut 2 shambling, fit 3 terminate (just my thoughts)

Grim feels like a bad mana fix when the lands are not there, either I keep 3 and cut lands (bad mulligans) or i cut them all together.

Maybe duress/more shambles, or if im feelin frisky, megrim

EDIT: Turns out i forgot to notice how good megrim is with blightening and inquiry, and i have yet to need lethemancer so its going up to 4 megrim.

I dont have an answer to White Knight in boros sb, doomblate out, bolt in? That would stop stags too

EDIT: Pulled terminates and one megrim into SB and put in maindeck bolts, save terminates vs banes i suppose, adds to the aggression late game, and early game creature kill. Fuck those white knights

So much aggro vs a deck with creatures that usually arent in play, added back a magma pheonix and a few pyroclasms

Bump my favorite deck <3
