You get rid of the creatures, end of story. And BGx is the strongest deck in modern using those creatures and Dark Confidant as there core. There is more to this deck than the graveyard.
Not sure you would want {Scavenging Ooze}, {Deathrite Shaman} and {Tarmagoyf} in the same deck. You are relying on graveyard a bit much and if someone pulls out a {Leyline of the Void} or a {Rest In Peace} you would be pretty screwed.
Quote from: ConanEdo on October 15, 2013, 11:46:56 AMHow is Woolly Thoctar wasted? With Deathrite Shaman, Knight only gets weaker and is not as strong as Woolly Thoctar is on turn 3. And it doesn't get weaker from other opponent's Deathrite Shaman and Scooze.Quote from: DeathlyFoiend on October 14, 2013, 11:25:41 PMWooly Thoctar seems like a wasted spot in this deck. He's already covered in the under costed fatty department, what he needs is more utility like Linvala it Ajani.Quote from: Agrus Kos, Enforcer of Truth on October 14, 2013, 07:46:02 PMI can't stand comments like this.

Wholly Thoctar seems better in the main deck since you're also playing Deathrite Shaman. The synergy is only onesided.
Quote from: ConanEdo on October 16, 2013, 01:04:42 AMYes, there are better things to run. But a curve is there. Taking out a 3 drop for any four drops would affect your curve a lot. Some cards just replace others for the curve specifically. I think you're not getting what I am going for. Keep the curve low, have enough strong efficient creatures. While there are better cards, there are better reasons to run other cards.Quote from: DeathlyFoiend on October 15, 2013, 06:39:51 PMQuote from: ConanEdo on October 15, 2013, 11:46:56 AMHow is Woolly Thoctar wasted?

But there are better things that could be run like Ajani. His presence is much stronger than a vanilla fattie. Or Linvala who should be taking one of those sideboard slots. I will admit knight of the reliquary is not my favorite choice, but the staggering number of options that are clearly better than Wooly Thoctar (Chandra, Linvala, Ajani) mean he shouldn't make the list.
