I first built this deck back when Crush of Wurms came out. Stopped playing for years, but am now trying to update this deck a bit.

I prefer cards that can do double duty- Werebear can provide early mana but becomes a 4/4 later in the game, Hidden Spider provides a cheap Reach defender but also discourages flying creatures in the first place, Krosan Tusker can be a 6/5 creature or an extra card plus a forest. I don't like cards like Llanowar Elves or Rampant Growth, as they are of limited usefulness later in a game.

I was considering removing Elvish Aberration in favor of more Krosan Tuskers. Also thought Elderscale Wurm might be a welcome addition. The Werebears are great in theory, but playing flashback cards often means I don't get threshold for quite some time- I'm thinking of replacing them with something else, perhaps Joraga Treespeaker?

Doubling Season isn't in the deck yet, but it is so good I can't imagine not adding four in. Am I wrong?

My local group consists of home brew or modified pre-built decks. The current version of this deck performs fairly well but struggles with fast decks. The Reach creatures are there for obvious reasons, and artifact/enchantment killing is a must for our group. Additionally, we play a lot of multiplayer games, either 1v1v1v1 or teams. None of my opponents are playing mill, control, or land destruction decks. I haven't had crippling mana problems in a long time, but do occasionally get slowed down for a turn or two. Cards like Fog Patch, Moment's Peace, and Spore Frog help with unblockable creatures or nasty combos I don't see coming, and often give me the leeway I need to attack all-out for a kill when another opponent would otherwise come in behind my back.
