Recent Changes —Nov. 2, 2016
Swapped Tormod's Crypt for Rest in Piece. Not only Rest in piece works better overall (at the cost of a bit more of mana, which is risible), it is also synergetic with commune with the gods, the main digging card on the deck. This change allows me to have it on play more consistently.
Swapped Elixir of Immortality for Runed Halo. Elixir does nothing. Runed Halo will solve my problem with a card very present in my meta: Emrakul.
Still considering swapping Negate for either Mana Leak or Scatter to the Winds and Telling Time for Time of Need or Oblivion Ring, the first making my finishers drop more consistent and the latter giving more control over the board.
Aless55 So, I'm really thinking about Lumbering Falls. Now that you mentioned it, I've considered it before and forgot completely about it. I think one of the things that made me apprehensive about it was (aside the mana pie and the fact I need G and W more than U) the activation cost.
Then again, it is so easy for my opponents to interact with Wildwood, seeing they wont use their removal on anything else...
I'll test it out, thanks for the suggestion.
OH, about tutor: I'm using commune instead of tutor because it fetches for creatures also. If I have a Worship in hand or field already, tutor is absolutely useless (removal on DSphere isn't worth, most of the times). Commune with the gods fulfil it's role perfectly because it searches for both my needs: Worship and creatures. But in the two FNMs I've played with the deck, Commune served more to fetch me a finisher (Ojutai or Sigarda) than Worship itself.
Thanks a lot for the comment!

This, good sir, is awesome. +1 earned.
I think Always Watching and Time of Need could be interesting additions.
Against agressive decks, a combination of Dauntless Escort and Day of Judgment are a possible answer.

Oh my! I cannot tell how much I forgot about Time of Need. I'll be testing it out right away!
On Always Watching : I did think about it, but it seeme a tad overkill (since only Ojutai REALLY needs it). Because the deck is so crippled with needs (like card digging and better creatures), I tried to balance it out the best and added Minamo as a pseudo-vigilance. The +1/+1 would be great, but there isn't much card space for it.
Dauntless Escort and Day of Judgement seem kind of a hard setup. I'd honestly rather have Cyclonic Rift. I've been thinking a lot about a wrath effect lately, but I'd probably use Supreme Verdict. Even so, I'll give it a try.
Thanks for the support seshiro!

Maybe instead of Commune with the Gods you could use Idyllic Tutor, it's a bit slower but you surely get your Worship. And have you ever looked at the card: Lumbering Falls. You could make it a creature in your opponents turn so he can attack you with whatever he wants if you have Worship on the field.
