| | Post Alara Reborn Standard | Let me start off by saying this. Jund Ramp to your face!
Jund has gotten a lot of badasses and the entire set list isn't even out yet!
Let's see:
Terminate
Lavalanche
Maelstrom Pulse
Thought Hemorrhage
Dragon Broodmother
Spellbreaker Behemoth
What else is going to come out to help Jund?
They already have Banefire
They already have Cloudthresher
They already have Volcanic Fallout
They already have Garruk Wildspeaker
They already have Sarkhan Vol
The list goes on and on.
So I figured I would think of a list that would be amazing with only the previewed cards and what already exists in the format.
Terminate x4-4
Maelstrom Pulse x4-8
Lavalanche x3-11
Cloudthresher x3-14
Rampant Growth x4-18
Fertile Ground x4-22
Banefire x2-24
Volcanic Fallout x4-28
Broodmate Dragon x4-32
Garruk Wildspeaker x3-35
Treetop Village x3-38
Savage Lands x4-42
Fire-Lit Thicket x3-45
Graven Cairns x3-48
Reflecting Pool x3-51
Twilight Mire x3-54
Forest x3-57
Mountain x2-59
Swamp x1-60
Basically, the deck idea is to kill your opponent's shit as it also kills your opponent. Any suggestions? Please comment. I don't have any clue what I would put in the sideboard.

| It can beat Faeries with properly timed Volcanic Fallout, and Banefire smashes 5cc. It's not unwinnable, but you can use board Spellbreaker Behemoth and Guttural Response against 5cc.

| I don't know if this helps you, but when I played my Planeswalker Control deck against the 2 Jund Ramps I played against in the 5k, I got smashed in both matches. Banefire hurts a lot.

| With maindeck Volcanic Fallout and Cloudthresher you have a lot of ant-Faeries weapons. Banefire is good against 5cc decks that don't use Wall of Reverence but not very good against decks that do. Terminate and Maelstrom Pulse may give you enough ways to deal with Wall of Reverence to nullify this problem, however.
