Deck Description

[u]Basic Idea[/u]
This deck is intended for first-time players. To make a beginner friendly deck I decide to keep the deck extra simple, so that the new player can focus on getting to know the rules, tactics and understanding what's going on.

[u]Cardpool and Budget[/u]
Mass-strengthening-effects (+x/+x to all creatures) and cards with multiple effects are not allowed. Lands are limited to Common's and Uncommon's, no Rare's or Mythic's. Other cards are limited to Common's, Uncommon's and 1 Rare (max. 4 copies) per deck, no Mythic's.
The overall budget should be between 15 to 20$. (Estimated mid value).

[u]Tests[/u]
I have tested this deck against other beginner decks. The decks I tested against are a mixture of Control and Aggro and the result are recorded in a spreadsheet. If you're interested in details from the spreadsheet, feel free to ask.

I'm open to all suggestions and ideas that may help to improve this deck.

How to Play

This deck is based on interaction with your graveyard. Most creatures are expandable or only have the purpose to fill your graveyard. [[Deadly Recluse]] is a great blocker and can even get rid of nasty angels or dragons, while your bloodrush creatures can either be used as creatures or discarded to give your attack some more power.
No matter how creatures land in your graveyard the undergrowth mechanic lets you benefit from it. [[Molderhulk]] gets cheaper to cast and [[Kraul Foragers]] gains you life. And if you tough your graveyard can't be of use any more [[Varolz, the Scar-Striped]] lets you convert dead creatures into +1/+1 counters.

Deck discussion for B/G: Beginner: Graveyard

[[Oona's prowler]] can replace or support eye collector by moving creatures from hand to the graveyard.
Faerie Macabre can also be considered.

[[Oona's Prowler]] is a rare, and I have limited the number of rare cards in this deck to 1(x4) and allready have used Varolz, the Scar-Striped. Faerie Macabre could be an option, tough I was looking more for a cc1-2 creature :)
