Worldspine maybe?
Dremi, 11 years ago
Messing around with the mana ramp and decided to toss in Worldspine Wurm
With 3 land, 3 mystis and 1 Sylvan Caryatid in hand off the draw, then pulling Xenagos, God of Revels, Garruk, Caller of Beasts and Worldspine Wurm, im able to swing for 30 trample on turn 4. Theres almost no chance of this happening as it requires 3 perfect draws but its still a fun thing to have in the deck. If Xenagos, God of Revels is on the board then any creature after him becomes a doubled up, haste, swing to the face and a 30/30 seems like a fitting thing to have.
It Works!
fijord, 11 years ago
So I was pretty confident that this would work somewhat the way I imagined it would in my head. It worked so much better than I actually imagined. The game itself took forever, since we kept stalemating each other. The guy who was playing Karador, Ghost Chieftain got Necrogenesis out nice and early which was mildly problematic, but not backbreaking. Everything was going to plan until Terminus hit the field, not much I can do about that however. Lost a lot of position and power, and couldnt quite regain it. On the plus side, I dropped off my opponents radar at least until I tutored for 9 cards all at once, which with my next turn, I would have properly secured myself. They decided to kill me instead of letting me untap =(. Otherwise great game. Played another one right after, 2HG style, T5 played Thrumming Stone and thrummed away until I had all my guys on the field. After wich I swung in with everyone for the win, such an amazing versatile deck. Things I noted however, no enchantment/artifact removal. Would Revoke Existence/Disenchant be worth adding, or maybe another that I cant think of?

Changed it again to what I hope to be a sort of final form. Really need to try it on an FNM or other store tournaments. Of course any other suggestions to make it even stonger, are always welcome!

Placed in top 8!

I think the deck is all set, but was wondering if anyone has any suggestions before I get it. Wondering if it would be worth adding more removal.

Maybe a touch of re-animator
GrandeKhan, 11 years ago
I was looking through my reanimator type cards and made a sideboard that could possibly be used with this deck as the backbone.
4x Dark Ritual
2x Animate Dead
2x Putrid Imp
2x Exhume
2x Buried Alive
2x Last Rites
1x Dread Return
1x Kaervek the Merciless
1x Kalitas, Bloodchief of Ghet
Any suggestions are welcome, never done reanimator before. - I guess that would take it outta modern though, shit.
On the lookout for some more instants that Umezawa can trigger from GY with 3 cmc or less. Thanks for checking this out!

-2 Athreos // +2 Read the Bones
I love Athreos but he just isn't that good. Read the Bones helps get through unnecessary land to the creatures we need (or helps us get to the land we need to fix our colors. Athreos is great in theory but in practice it doesn't always work that well, and Read the Bones helps the deck to achieve critical mass.
That said, sacrificing a fully-devoted Atheros to give a Cartel Aristocrat protection and then promptly scavenging that Athreos onto the Aristocrat to swing for lethal is pretty satisfying, so he'll stay as a one of for the time being.

So against a mono-green with lots of Centaurs (3/3 and 4/4), some heroic, and Courser of Kruphix and a couple of Fated Intervention, I won 2-1. First game won with Akroan Skyguard since it had no answer to flying and I took all instants I had on it, and the other because our lady Elspeth, Sun's Champion came in... Will definitely put in more Akroan Skyguard and Ajani's Presence.

Are Islands Obsolete?

Took out Vorel of the Hull Clade for Mul Daya Channelers.
Mul Daya is amazing, like a low budget Courser of Kruphix. If the top card is a creature it becomes a 5/5. If the top card is a land I get to add 2 mana to my mana pool. Win win. And it's an elf so synergy with the arch Druid. Am I going hydra and elf tribal?
With the way Mana Ramp is going Bow of Nylea is being cut for Hydra Broodmaster. The bow is sort of a midrange type card, and this deck isn't midrange.
Slightly Less Budget

Took out 4x Flames of the Blood Hand and added 4x Vexing DevilUndefeated at FNM

Only lost one game out of 4 matches last night. This deck is very well suited against control.
Getting ready for rotation out
TristieHat, 11 years ago
I took out most, if not all, creatures/instants/sorceries/echantments/Planeswalkers that will be rotating out come next set. I considered things that were close to the cards replaced, so to replace Loxodon Smiter I went for a Boon Satyr, Fiendslayer got replaced with Soldier of the Pantheon and Trostani, Selesnya's Voice and Jace, The Architect of Thought with Prophet of Kruphix. Any inclusions or upgrades that are from this current set or the next is what I ask for, thank you all for your time
