More switching! —Oct. 31, 2013

Also, added 2x Boon Satyr to the main deck as it is amazing on Fleecemane Lion when it gets to monstrosity. Also just an all around awesome combat trick to flash in.

Brought a 2nd copy of Scavenging Ooze in for obvious reasons, he is a brick wall, and gets huge while gaining us life.

Removed Bow of Nylea - As this card is super awesome and I love it with trample, I feel the extra copy of Unflinching Courage just turned out better. It's also worth noting that this change isn't completely final as I love the bow when it is on the field.

And finally removed 2x Selesnya Guildgate for more basic land. I feel tapped was making the deck a tad bit slower than it needed, we left the other 2 just to prevent mulligans if it has the shy chance of fixing our mana early.

Yeah but the problem with that is the Wayfaring Temple is just another way to populate tokens if I happen to either not draw Trostani, Selesnya's Voice or he gets taken out. I do want a 2 of for the angel though because it is highly effective with all the life gain from Trostani as well as the bow and her lifelink + whatever else may have Unflinching Courage on it.. Just not sure if the Wayfaring should go or not it is a do-able slot to remove but having the temple as a 1 of wouldn't really be that great imo

I think that Voice of Resurgence is great for the deck. Populating elementals is a another wincon that you could add, besides just great value.

I agree, but the price of the card is just too much for me at the moment. Maybe ill slowly add them in, but again the cost is really high.

I think Voice would probably be a good choice and maybe Elspeth but otherwise the deck is good, Ill most likely build it :D +1.

@ TheTouchofSatan Thanks! You totally should build it, it has won me several games thus far, once Trostani, Selesnya's Voice hits the board and is unanswered it gets way out of hand. If you add in Voice of Resurgence remove Wayfaring Temple since thats the overall substitute for the Voice. I don't think Elspeth, Sun's Champion is needed in this style of deck, she is good, but I just don't think she fits overall. Too mana heavy when you may want to save the mana for Rootborn Defenses as well as end step Trostani and Advent of the Wurm

I haven't currently tested Elspeth in the deck, so its no completely ruled out, but again she is quite expensive so Ajani, Caller of the Pride is a better choice for the dollar as well as giving double strike and flying to a creature.
