Topic: [EDH] First attempt Jund - Prossh deck

Never really made an EDH deck before, and I don't get to play often enough to collect/make Modern or Standard decks anymore. Still, I thought I'd try to put together a decent Jund deck as I liked the flavor of the Power Hungry 2013 deck (it's just a little under-powered) and was able to pick it up for $22.

After looking through my inventory, I came up with the following:
http://deckbox.org/sets/639679

I'm looking for feedback on what to cut as I have 11 too many cards. The basic concept is to create tokens and benefit from the many sacrifice outlets at my disposal (if they ever make it onto the battlefield). So synergy is a good thing, as is a bit of disruption on board-wipes.

Two questionable choices are Arena of the Ancients (seems like a fun/annoying addition, as it could really help with tempo until I am able to sac it, but could hinder me as well) and Hunted Troll as I don't have too many ways of dealing with the flyers should he come out with only 2-players left.

The sideboard consists of options I might consider buying, if it would really help the deck. Jarad, Golgari Lich Lord seems like a winner there and Slate of Ancestry might play better than Wheel of Fortune.

Any/all feedback is welcome though and thank you in advance for helping me get into EDH.

EDIT: I whittled it down to 100, taking out my questionables. They're in the sideboard for now, as I'm not sure they're the right choice (blood moon would hurt me almost as much as everyone else... Same goes for Arena of the ancients.).

I'd still like feedback though on choices/options. :-)

Cool to see all of the views, but does anyone think this would survive a game against your playgroup? If not, what could help it?

I just helped my brother tweak this deck and man it is scary good now.
Token Generators:
Doubling Season. Doubling season is a little pricey, but if you have the money to get it do so!
Parallel Lives. Parallel lives is a more budget friendly option.
I added both.
Damage outlet:
Purphoros, God of the Forge. This dude doles out damage like it's nobodies business. With all your token generators, it makes Prossh deal lethal without actually attacking.
Champion of Lambholt. Gets huge with Primal Vigor and Doubling Season. Hell, it gets huge without those!
Lumberknot. If you have the sac outlets he gets out of hand. Hexproof is a huge deal.
Orge Battledriver. Makes all your tokens viable to attack.
Tutors:
Worldly/Sylvan Tutor. Dig for whatever creature you need at the time you need it.
Demonic Tutor. Dig for whatever you want.
Vampiric Tutor. See above.
Time of Need. Let's you grab Purphoros or whatever legend you want.
Summoners Pact. Grab a green dude when it's ideal.
Those are just a few thing. If you want me to go into more depth just let me know.
You can get Purphoros, Champion, Lumberknot, Battledriver, Worldly tutor (or summoners pact), and parallel lives for around $20 and those alone make it super competitive.

Sweet. Thanks for the feedback. I'll have to see if I can get a few more tutor cards into the deck.
Already put in my Ogre Battledriver. Just need to figure out what to cut for Lumberknot and Champion of Lambholt. I totally missed Purphoros... I'll need to see if I can find one.

I have Ruric Thar in there to try to help stall a bit... might replace him.
I'm not too concerned with Token or graveyard removal, but does anyone know what might be a weak point of this deck? I think I might have a hard time with flyer decks (either in 2 player, or if I'm chosen as the first victim).

Re: [EDH] First attempt Jund - Prossh deck

Im running a prossh EDH as well take a look http://deckbox.org/sets/654903. You were saying abt dealing with flyers, well attacking with silklash spider while nyleas bow is on board and paying 1(g)(g) will wipe out all flying creatures.
