Thanks bradtheimpaler13, but ALL GLORY TO THE HYPNOTOAD!

Do you plan on using Nettlevine Blight and Kudzu on your own lands?

April 3, 2016 6:24 p.m.

Ender666666 says... #4

No, I'll use them on stuff my opponents own, but will get added benefit whenever Kudzu comes to visit me. I just felt like if I can't have nice things, why should my opponents, y'know?

Ended up cutting Nettlevine Blight

:p with a free discard outlet and Skirge Familiar you get infinite black mana, get Necrotic Ooze, Quillspike, and Devoted Druid for infinite mana, untap and basically you win at that point. Reanimation like Victimize and Dread Return make you get there quicker.

Cool, thanks for the suggestions. I'll see if I can fit them in. Still have to play this deck.

Honestly man, this deck is too new for me to give much input.

I know there's a lot of discussion elsewhere of this being a good combo deck, on the level of the 4 Horsemen combo.

I'll have to delve further into this before I can give much input.

But in the meantime, +1!

Fair. I'll chat with you through other channels, but I'll have to do research too. So far, I haven't been looking at any guides. Still have to even test this build out.

April 4, 2016 12:57 p.m.

What did you cut the blight for?

April 4, 2016 4:17 p.m.

Ender666666 says... #11

I swapped out a few cards to add in more lands. I believe that I took out the good, but situationally good blight for the always good Asceticism

Ender666666 says... #12

I'm open to any suggestions that people might have. Please feel free to weigh in. I don't usually play green, so I'm sure there could be some real gems I've missed.

Perhaps Lord of Extinction to hopefully one-shot people late game?

April 5, 2016 9:18 a.m.

Ender666666 says... #14

I do like the idea of using Lord of Extinction...

I built a modern version if you're interested.

Lots of discussion on the ranking commanders by tier thread about Gitgud as well. Gaea's Blessing for comboing with Dakmor Salvage is a great way to get infinite landfall and draws.

Are you worried about Leyline of the Void and its brethren, they seem like they could do a number.

+1 for the cool deck and because Squandered Resources finally has a home. That flavor text should not go to waste.

April 8, 2016 11:38 a.m.

Ender666666 says... #17

I have thought about cards in that vein, and yes, they can pose a problem. Might add in a Witchbane Orb or some such to ward against yard hate.

Thank goodness we finally have a home for SR. Too bad Cadaverous Bloom doesn't quite work in this shell.

April 8, 2016 11:54 a.m.

The really annoying ones are enchantments and I guess there's Tormod's Crypt and Grafdigger's Cage so I would suggest Tranquil Grove or Calming Verse. They are the best enchantments sweeps in green IMO but Bane of Progress is epic too. Would you try Far Wanderings in this deck? It could work.

Don't let them slow the toad!

April 8, 2016 12:04 p.m.

Ender666666 says... #19

Absolutely! Far Wanderings is an amazing card. I run it in How to Lose Friends and Infuriate People to great effect.

April 8, 2016 1:05 p.m.

This deck could use some Witch's Familiar also I think that you nee.ALL GLORY TO THE HYPNOTOAD

If only Witch's Familiar did something good.

April 9, 2016 10:02 p.m.

I would suggest Vampiric Tutor, Demonic Tutor, or Sidisi, Undead Vizier. I didnt see any of the normal tutors but it may be because they wont be amazing when dredged. Sidisi, Undead Vizier is a creature though which is good and she costs 2 less than Rune-Scarred Demon. I would also suggest Desolation as it is one of my favorite stax cards and great for killing lands.

April 10, 2016 6:06 a.m.

Also Entomb / Buried Alive + Living Death / Twilight's Call is also fun and cheeky too.

April 10, 2016 6:08 a.m.

Ender666666 says... #24

Yup, tutors need to make it in somehow. Changes and revisions will be made soon me thinks

April 10, 2016 6:22 a.m.
