so i tested the 11 creature suite with Hazoret, Hellkite and 8 discard spells and found it pretty tough to turn the corner against aggressive decks unless you have an early goyf. for example, against stompy green, they will exhaust your removals and a confidant wont do much on defense.
i moved hellkite now to SB and cut a thoughtseize for 2 ooze which i liked better. Will continue to do more testing.
This new heavier discard list with Hazoret and Glorybringer had honestly rejuvenated my interest with Jund. Will try it in my next FNM. Also, with the concern of Hazoret being easily removed by PTE or Edict effects, that is why we are playing a deluge of discard spells so we can play around it.
I've been bringing this list for 2 FNMs now. I went 4-0 last time and won a PR for Amonkhet. Pretty stock, the mainboard Fulminators is a concession to Tron and other ramp decks. The extra Abrupt in the SB is to combat Blood Moon and other unknown shenanigans which are also rampart in my meta. Will be slotting in a pair of Surgicals in my SB probably taking out 1 Anger and Thrun/Baloth.
Fellow Jund players, what makes Flayers effective in Junk but not Jund? Unless they are running mainboard Bauble or Spellbomb, looks like we have the same amount of card types to enable Delirium. Is it because it competes with Bob in the 2-drop?
