A green white ramp deck powered by Selvala, Explorer Returned.

Selvala is a ramp game plan in and of herself: she provides ramp (massive ramp in multiplayer) and gives you fuel. The key insight behind this deck is that it's okay to give everyone else cards because, as a ramp deck, you'll be able to play more of your cards faster and will have bigger threats.

This deck is surprisingly strong and great for anyone who wants to play their favorite expensive fatties. It's a particularly threat-dense deck, putting you in a good position once you have your ramp up, even if you're topdecking.

I've found getting Selvala out on turn two is very important, which is why I have so much turn one mana acceleration. An ideal start for this deck looks something like this:

  1. mana acceleration: mana dork, land echantment, sol ring... etc
  2. Selvala comes out and hopefully isn't killed on sight
  3. either start playing threats or a big mana accelerant: (Mirari's Wake, Mana Reflection... etc)

After that, go to town!

Updates Add

I've decided to go over to the dark side and add an aggressive land destruction sub-theme to this deck. If it works well, I'll go even deeper on it.
