Selesnya Land Destruction

Standard GW (Selesnya)

nickcatron94


Sideboard


This is a budget deck without very expensive cards. I would like to hear any suggestions and your thoughts.

GOAL

The idea of this deck is to destroy your opponent's lands in the midgame. Meanwhile, you play creatures and make them stronger by proliferating. Nissa, Who Shakes the World and Fall of the Thran are the main cards in this deck. Nissa's "-8" will get you an emblem that makes all your lands indestructible. After doing so, you can play Fall of the Thran . If you are also able to sacrifice Remorseful Cleric , your opponent won't be able to play those lands later on. You can also choose to play Tomik, Distinguished Advokist , his own stats are better, but the opponent will still be able 'return' the cards while Fall of the Thran is on the board. However, the opponent cannot use cards like or abilities like Nature's Spiral . By delaying so, creatures in this deck are simply finishers.

STRATEGY

While it may seem hard to get this job done as quickly as possible, Bond of Flourishing gives the option to filter the cards you really need. It's 3 life gain helps out to restore the damage that has been done earlier in the game. Most of the time you will need to find Nissa, Who Shakes the World or Fall of the Thran .

Llanowar Elves is there to play as quick as possible. Ajani, the Greathearted will make your creatures better, helps out the proliferation by putting +1/+1 counters on creatures or just simply by giving life. Ajani, the Greathearted is also great to help Nissa out with her loyalty counters. Evolution Sage , Huatli's Raptor , Pollenbright Druid with Pledge of Unity and especially Hungering Hydra will make a good combination to build a strong line of creatures. Conclave Cavalier seems not that great, but when it dies, you will still get two creatures and keep the line wide enough.

DISADVANTAGES

The main deck doesn't contain any real board wipes. Besides, I wonder if the card draw would be a problem.
