You know why Cryptolith Rite is cool? Imagine I have 6 lands and cast Beacon of Creation and Cryptolith Rite , then next turn I tap all my creatures to pay for some spell to animate my lands and attack with them: Boom, I've just done magic backwards.

So, seeing your deck has got some good ramp, it looks like what you really need are big fatties that can survive an edict effect.

I have an unusual solution for you: Tatsumasa, the Dragon's Fang as a 5/5 flying dragon. It would be difficult, if not impossible for your opponent to deal with permanently: they would need to have Vraska's Contempt or Path to Exile for the dragon token (and even then, they have to hope you don't Plummet it in response). The 5/5 dragon can survive any number of sacrifice effects, as long as you have to get it back.

If they have artifact destruction, you activate the ability to get the dragon token in response to the spell, and this saves the sword. To bait them into using their removal on the sword, you just equip it to something.

Otherwise, cards that go wide, like Beacon of Creation , or Hooded Hydra would minimize the power of the sacrifice effects.

This mono green EDH deck is well out of date and I could use some help updating it to not only be legal but competitive

I feel like the base of the deck is still pretty strong and it only needs a few minor updates here and there, so any and all inputs would be greatly appreciate.

Kamerot what do you think would be the better chose adding Selvala, Heart of the Wilds or Doubling Season I feel it would have a very good synergy with my deck with cards like Avenger of Zendikar , Bane of Progress , Managorger Hydra , Myojin of Life's Web , Nacatl War-Pride , Rampaging Baloths , Scavenging Ooze , Vigor , Beacon of Creation , Garruk Wildspeaker and Vivien Reid . tell me if doubling season would work in all of those cases

Wonderful deck. I can only think of couple suggestions since the deck is great already.

My iffy suggestion is Beacon of Creation. You only run 20 forests so this isn't as abusable, but can still be good for repeated tokens for blockers or small bursts of offense.

The good suggestion is Void Winnower. This card absolutely shuts people down and since you're already running an eldrazi package, it'll fit right in.

Great job!

Hi! I am building a Mazirek deck too (Mazirek Bodybuilder)!

Like your build - insect tribal is a nice idea!

I think token producers such as Ant Queen and Beacon of Creation and of course the symbiotics - Symbiotic Elf, Symbiotic Beast and Symbiotic Wurm are too good not include.

Hi kelllppp,

For additional token generation we would recommend Brimaz, King of Oreskos, Kazandu Tuskcaller, Imperious Perfect, Avenger of Zendikar, Ant Queen, Living Hive, Beacon of Creation and Freyalise, Llanowar's Fury.

Boosting your creatures could be fun with Bloodspore Thrinax, Juniper Order Ranger and Tolsimir Wolfblood (which incidentally also creates tokens).

Aside from these things, we would also recommend Path to Exile, Swords to Plowshares, Krosan Grip and/or Aura Shards for some more control. Maybe some additional draw options like Lifecrafter's Bestiary, Slate of Ancestry and Beacon of Creation.

For any further ideas, feel free to check out our Rhys deck. Good luck and have fun.

Regards,

Mrs. & Mr. NV_1980

Growing Rites of Itlimoc  ^Flip should get you far if you need one "really nice" land. Beacon of Creation, Primal Bellow, and possibly Overrun might also be good (although if your lands are meant to become creatures then Overrun is harder to work in.)

Dungrove Elder and Dauntless Dourbark are solid too.

This all keeps it under reasonable financial control, otherwise I'd suggest Crucible of Worlds, Exploration, Burgeoning, and Azusa, Lost but Seeking. Perhaps later. :-)
