Deck Notes
This is Jund at its most primal; make mana, kill monster, go brrrr. It has direct damage, treasure engines, and discard to create mana and fill the graveyard. Then, once the discard piles are nice and full, it unleashes the Tarmogoyf’s deadly power. And just to make sure it has ALL the rudeness, Ragavan and Wrenn and Six are there to cast your opponent’s spells and make your own spells double up.
