GDW (Green Deck Wins)

why is elvish archdruid in here? you run 12 elves out of 28 creatures... seems illogical.

I have a friend that runs a deck just like this minus the elvish druids and he also runs 4 "Sheltering Word"'s to protect his big guys and also gain some sweet life.

Well, when I first built the deck it had 4 Elvish Visionary s in it and I have since took them out to increase the number of Predator Ooze s and add in the Garruk, Primal Hunter s. The Elvish Archdruid s still increase my mana production quickly and make for a quick Genesis Wave for 8 or better.

I suggest keeping the archdruids. They're usually gonna pump at least one creature and tap for at least 2 mana. Even worst case scenario, they're still a body and can tap for 1 mana.

My thoughts exactly. Thanks for the backup. Any suggestions bagthesnoot?

throw in some thragtusks, wolfirsilverhearts, champion of lambholts and rancors and you will have yourself a killer beatdown deck!

Rancor is already there, I have 2 Thragtusk s and a set of Wolfir Silverheart s, but what would you suggest taking out venomflip14?

This deck is nasty; +1 from me. First play-test and I genesis'd for 11 on like turn 6 xD.

Suggestion wise, Do you not care about rotation or do you want it to be standard when RtR releases

ZodiacT: I know rotation is going to hurt the deck, losing Genesis Wave , card:Green Sun's Zenith, Dungrove Elder , and Llanowar Elves will obviously hurt the deck in a lot of ways. I am waiting to see what comes out in RtR before trying to put something together for then. I simply intend to play this until rotation happens and go from there. Thanks for the +1.
