You Put On a Disguise

Sorcery

Tap up to three creatures that each share a creature type. Create an X/X Avatar that also has the shared subtype creature token that's all colors among those creatures, with X being their total highest power and toughness combined. If any one of those creatures has first strike, the Avatar has first strike. The same is true for flying, deathtouch, double strike, hexproof, indestructible, lifelink, menace, reach, skulk, trample, vigilance and ward. In addition, it gains haste. Exile it at the beginning of the next end step.


Suppose you have 5/5 Animar, Soul of Elements, an Arboretum Elemental and a 1/6 Primal Plasma. What happens?

The highest power among them all is Arboretum Elemental as a 7/5. The highest toughness is Primal Plasma as a 1/6. So, 7+6 is 11, so you have an 13/13 Avatar Elemental.

Next, thanks to Animar, Soul of Elements, it's Temur in color.

It'll also have:

  • Haste, as a given
  • Protection from white and black
  • Hexproof

So you have an 13/13 with haste that can't be targeted and also can't be blocked by your opponent who is playing Athreos, God of Passage Clerics.

i think Elvish Rejuvenator really isn't that good, but that my opinion, i think you want more Goreclaw, Terror of Qal Sisma, the ramp from him is really good.

I believe you are setting your curve pretty high, Impervious Greatwurm, Arboretum Elemental and Aggressive Mammoth are pretty ambitious, and Hungering Hydra isn't that great either. Good replecements are cards like Carnage Tyrant, Nullhide Ferox, and Vine Mare. Vine mare doesn't seem that good but in the end it hits for five, killing your opponents pretty quick. I like the idea of Elvish Rejuvenator, seeing that playing a Llanowar Elves turn 1 increases your chances of winning immensely, the druid should do a similar thing.

I think that Broken Bond in the main board doesn't make alot of sense, but it depends on what your facing often. I suggest swapping it out for your Adventurous Impulse.

Crash the Ramparts is a questionable card in this deck, its a dead card in hand most game, given that more of your creatures alreadly have trample or are given trample by another creature.

Root Snare also doesn't make any sense, its a very defensive card in a very aggresive deck. The idea of the mono green is to tempo enough pressure to force your opponent to stay on the defensive. If you think it work really well against what your facing maybe sideboard it.

I think Prodigious Growth is definitely interesting, but i feel like if you want the stats on its your could play a better six drop creatures, and if you want some burst to finish your opponent off, just play Bounty of Might

Vivien Reid is another card that requires a defensive strategy to pay off, and yet its in this deck. If it is value you are looking for i suggest Find / Finality Even thought you can only cast the first half its still pretty good in the late game

Also mono green want more lands, i suggest 22-23 lands

Can you reliably cast Greatwurm? If not, take him out for somthing like Arboretum Elemental with hexproof.

Cool deck! Have you given any thought to Venerated Loxodon in the place of Arboretum Elemental? I think you might find that you like sideboarding in the elemental against control. However, I think you'll find that giving out counters to each creature that convoked it and being four mana cheaper might make for more consistent play in your average game. Again great deck! Looks like you'll have a lot of fun playing this one.

Hey Synergy, I think you can cut down on some of the numbers of the Elves. In their place main deck some threats to use all the ramp with. I understand that Beast Whisperer is the card you're using Marwyn's and other Elves ramp with to play and draw more Elves, but Whisperer is fragile therefore if he gets killed you're not doing much with all the ramp you can make.

Consider cutting 4x Elfhame for 2x Tyrant, 2x Ferox or 2x Ghalta, Primal Hunger? Elfhame is the least good mana Elf, 0/2 stats is very lackluster and you're not taking enough advantage of kicker, sideboard Territorial Allosaurus is not enough to matter.

Arboretum Elemental is also worth playtesting, 7/5 hexproof with convoke with Elves and the strategy of playing lots of them and drawing cards with Whisperer.

I know you're trying to keep this mono green, but Selesnya for Militia Bugler is also worth playtesting because Bugler can find all Elves except Champion, but best of all he can potentially find Whisperer or draw a card when cast. Bugler and Impulse combine to give you a lot of creature filtering, ways to find Whisperer or Elves after you get Whisperer online.

Good luck with your deck.
