Rats is definitely the pick here. Wurm is so meh, and hilariously worse in a high-curve deck like ours.

Wurm. Ramp into fat FTW! (rats are OK here too)

Wurm. Its not a 5/5 trample for 7, its a 5/5 trample for 5-6.

Unfortunately I think that's the right call for this pack. 3/5 has a nice butt and kills most 1-4 drops and gives us some extra life that we are inevitably going to lose during the early game.

I had to check what's wrong with Hunt, and I noticed we already have two. So, Maggot.

Maggot. The next best thing is Hunt and we already have one too many.

yeah Maggot's fine. Siege Mastodon is a fine card and this gains us some life. just be careful with it, we do have a Gravedigger.

Maggot fine. We already have 2 hunts. I don't think any of the cards will fit in.

Festergloom helps kill most of our opponents 1 and 2 drops, and some 3 drops. It's great against the faster weenie agro decks that are going to give us headaches and helps stabilize the board.

Then again, Witch's Familiar kills those same creatures, sits as a fat butted blocker (for a 3drop in this format), gives us an earlier body that we need, only requires one Swamp to play and doesn't kill our Elvish Mystics.

I'm already counting around 6 non-creature spells (maybe only 5) that we want to play, or at least, we drafted them, so I'm assuming we want to play them. Mystic can get us to a T2 Frog. Along with the two Spiders I'm pretty satisfied with have 3, 3drop 2/3s.

Familiar it is.
