"Budget" Green Stompy (Pioneer)

Pioneer Aggro Budget Competitive Mono-Green Zoo

Dragaan


Sideboard


Early port of (competitive) modern green stompy over to pioneer. $75 for the full 75. Listed as "Budget" due to it being inexpensive, although it uses the best cards available.

Why, oh, why did they have to cut Rancor off? It was so close (M13)! Rosethorn Halberd could have been a decent replacement if it's equip cost were 1 instead of 5, haha (or it gave trample...). Oh well. For now, Giant Growth fills this spot.

Need to compare Syr Faren, the Hengehammer to more traditional stompy cards such as Garruk's Companion or Kalonian Tusker . On the surface, he's capable of dealing obscene amounts of damage very early in conjunction with Aspect of Hydra (first time I ever had this come up I dealt 27 damage at once on turn 4); This means casting it at sorcery speed, though... The one-of Yorvo is also a test, both of the card itself and for adding a 5th GGG creature to the list. He's very strong, but it's possible this deck just wants another GG creature or a single Scooze instead.

Edit: I've added a 3rd Syr Faren to the maindeck, as he is proving to be quite good but also draws a lot of heat.
