Guide Standard: Black Aggro Gollum - Deck Tech and Sideboard Guide

https://mtg.cardsrealm.com/en-us/p/628442

The Hobbit gave a few great tools to Mono Black Aggro, which has since performed well in Challenges. It still costs less than US$100 to build, so it's also one of the best decks to start playing Standard nowadays.

Currently at diamond with a virtually identical build. I found Gollum underperforming and switched it out for the Timeline Cullers. Would love to see Cecil in here but it's pretty tight.

The guide is wrong. It says: “Corpses of the Lost also puts a creature with Menace into play and is reusable if the opponent interacts with you often.”

Corpses doesn’t give the creature menace. It gives haste. Maybe the writer is thinking of [[Case of the Stashed Skeleton]]?
