This deck is based on getting +1/+1 counter synergy, with Managorger Hydra and Avatar of the Resolute rolling over and Abzan value cards like Anafenza, the Foremost and Abzan Charm adding to versatility.

This deck started out as a straight G/W counters build that used Citadel Siege as a main win condition, but I thought splashing Black would be a good way to add value.

That being said, this is my first time constructing a three-color mana base, so any help on that would be the most helpful!
