About a month before BLB released, i was facing an unusual amount mono black discard decks. That only increased in the current meta, with all that support for mono black discard. I did got a Baloth as a daily reward, and i thought about it. Now i get to finally see the card in action, and even better, in my favorite colors, golgari! Thanks for deck, amazing video, great commentary and fun over all :)

@29:58 You really should eat the food immediately here. Once the opponent draws a card, you're stuck in the "hold 2 mana open to respond to burn" dilemma. By eating the food first, you get just a little wiggle room the following turn.

@@HexMTG The pipe dream idea is to have a permanent on the field that frequently forces an opponent to discard. Then give that permanent to the opponent with something like Coveted Falcon. Now I’m in a fun loop of being forced to discard Baloth and then bouncing it back to my hand. It’s a half cooked idea because I don’t know what the endgame is, but it sounds fun 😂 Edit: Obviously if the opponent is already making me discard I don’t need to give him a card to do so

You should attack with Glissa before you play the miasma. As long as the opp has not more than 4 creatures with 3/3 or bigger you are safe. The combination of first strike and deathtouch allows you to deal one damage to up to three creature and all of them would die before they deal any dmg to glissa

This deck needs at least 2 Bitter Triumphs. Take out a Baloth and an instigator and put 2 Bitter Triumphs. Also I'd do 2 cutdowns and 4 go for the throats because go for the throat can take out sheoldred and mice that have been buffed multiple times.

Cool deck. Another option is the route I'm going, b/u discard deck featuring rats I call Ratty Discards, though it utilizes 1 or 2 new exiling cards also. I think my win condition enchantment is better than yours though and ideally should be used in tandom, 2 of each. My enchantment is Painful Quandary, (to cast a spell an opponent either has to discard a card or pay 5 life). Your golgari should be faster paced than my deck, but if you find yourself needing a little more umph in the late game and need something more to close the deal, try Painful Quandary. Even if its just a "one of", its super nice to come across in those games that are dragging and your having trouble closing.
