Notes:
You get the idea pump splinters, jarad or boneyard wurm. This is my first blueprint im thinking about adding some {Grisly salvage} for good measure incase i hit no orders or frights. Thoughts so far? Ill be sample drawing for a while.

Sweet deck tried it but didn't do very well best of luck!

Grisly salvage, forbidden alchemy, tracker's instincts are good included

Absolutezero

Maybe graveyard rebirth cards also?

G-salvage is my plan. Working on the non-creature spell ratio right now until i get a good feel for it.
Considering switching out some creatures for {Dead bridge goliath}... Good or bad?
Only thing im keeping at 4 each by default is Wurm and Fright,

Unsure if i should splash blue though. Trackers instinct and forbidden alch are both awesome but wont i loose too much speed? Or should i throw in blue control? But then wont i lose creature count?

You absolutely need to run {mulch} and {grisly salvage} in 4s. They will help with the mana and dumb cards in the grave obviously. I would drop 2  {Jarad's Orders}, 2 {Jarad, Golgari Lich Lord}, 4  {Slitherhead} and at least 1  {Boneyard Wurm}. The reasons why is that you'll have  {Treasured Find} if things get dumb and Jarads will sit in your hand most of the time. I would put either arbor elves, gravecrawlers, or diregraf ghoul over slither. Once slither hits the grave you won't want to scavenge him because it ruins the bonus for other frights, wurms, and Jarad. The more creatures the better. Your wurms also won't do much and you rather have a hand full of 1 drops then wurms that will die with nothing in the grave.

In my build of this deck I use blue and {laboratory maniac} because my library tends to disappear faster than I can draw it.. But then again my plan is to dump as many creatures as possible into the graveyard with no regard for my library size. I've won games where I had 3 and less cards left

I could swap in blue for maniac and all those things if i ignore the deck size! I mean with Orders, salvage, instincts mulch and alchemy id probably find my key peices too! I could even add rancor without a problem!

"I see your gravy is not running as smooth as it used to. Shame to bring a vintage gravy like that to the Gravyard..."

Throw 4 {Lotleth Troll} in and I could see this deck wrecking shop at FNM. I'd drop Jarad down to 2, you only ever need to draw 1 since he can come back. I'd also drop Elixer down to 2, that way you can fit in the 4 Lotleths

Bcstang

3 or 4 {disciple of bolas} and 4 {gnaw to the bone}. Your choice on what to cut. Nothin like goin down to 5 health then for 3 mana gaining 20. With flashback!
