Deck Description

Let me, a proud golgari player present to you my 2nd favorite pauper deck!
With the first one being TE.

Most, if not all, creature decks die to this one, same goes for all control decks except TE and AT.
Combo, gw hatebears and auras, and some decks like elves or delver can give it a though time but it's nothing that can't be managed.

How to Play

It plays like all the other aristocrats decks, except with a twist I added.
You play creatures, they die, you profit. Rancor and Carrion Feeder get huge value and so does Unearth.

What I did to the already established shell was add Driver of the Dead and Kjeldoran Dead, 2 cards we rarely see. I have also done some card number tweaking.

Driver of the Dead provides INSANE value in the late game, getting back a Brindle Shoat or Kjeldoran Dead is gamebreaking, also everything except the driver is 2 mana so if you have 4 mana it's way better than Unearth.

Kjeldoran Dead on the other hand is an amaing turn 2 play and a creature that can win boardstalls and creature matchups on it's own.
Is 4x Kjeldoran Dead a good idea?

Well, I'm not the first to come up with it but I did give it my own twist; Kjeldoran Dead and Driver of the Dead are never played in the standard list.

I've always like the Kjeldoran Dead. Less sure of Driver, but I see the utility of it.
