Savage Ramp
The forests and crags of Jund teem with ferocious beasts, epic in scale and vicious in temperament. These dragons and gargantuans rule the savage lands through sheer animal brutality.
Savage Ramp is a Black, Red, and Green ramp deck that accelerates its mana to cast big creatures and plays 2-for-1 cards that get you ahead in the late game.
A Black-Red-Green control deck that uses removal, and card advantage to answer every threat, grinding down opponents before deploying powerful finishers.

Game Plan
Early Game
Turns 1-2
Prioritize hitting land drops and hold up interaction. Answer the most threatening plays rather than developing proactively.
Mid Game
Turns 3-4
Start transitioning from pure reaction to building card advantage. Identify your path to a win condition while keeping answers open.
Late Game
Turn 5+
Deploy Call the Skybreaker and Cloudthresher when the opponent's resources are exhausted. Keep interaction mana open even when winning — never tap out unnecessarily.
