SaberTech on Which Mono-Color is the Most …
1 month ago
I think that Green is the most powerful all-around colour in Commander. Multiplayer games are even more of a resource management challenge than MtG usually is, and Green is the most efficient at giving you more of the resources that you need. You are usually facing down three opponents worth of resources that can all potentially be turned against you so the faster that you can get to a state where you are drawing more than one card a turn, putting more than one land a turn into play, and casting more than one card a turn, the better off you are. Green's ability to ramp better than any other colour unlocks multiple and more powerful plays faster than the other colours. That's a very significant advantage in a format where mass land destruction is generally shunned outside of the most competitive tables.
Backing it up, Green has a bunch of strong card draw options. Guardian Project, Beast Whisperer, Sylvan Library, Greater Good, Toski, Bearer of Secrets, Ohran Frostfang, and Return of the Wildspeaker are just some of the options that jump to mind.
Green is very capable of spamming a bunch of tokens into play, giving it an option for rapidly increasing its resources on board.
Craterhoof Behemoth and, to a lesser extent, Triumph of the Hordes are some of the more notorious non-combo ways to close out a game.
When you are mostly using creatures as your win conditions Green actually has some pretty strong tutors in cards like Worldly Tutor, Eldritch Evolution, and Shared Summons among others.
Where Green falls short is in its creature removal options. Fight effects are its main options but it does get Beast Within as a general answer to most things while Lignify and Song of the Dryads can actually be strong ways of neutralizing annoying commanders for extended periods of time. It has plenty of great ways for dealing with artifacts and enchantments though, so no issues there.
Other colours may be able to do particular things better, but Green does lots of things well on top of its inherent advantage at ramping. Other colours may be able to use mana rocks to try to keep up but green has access to those as well. That ramping ability is what tips green into first place over Black for me.

Very cool deck! This is one of things that I love about Magic. The Swarmlord is one of my favorite commanders and Slime Against Humanity is one of my favorite cards but I’ve somehow never thought about playing them in the same deck! Really cool idea with great execution! Here are some cards that I would run in my version of the deck.
Interaction/protection:
Board Wipes
Ramp:
More counters:
Card draw:
Game-Ending Bombs:

This looks pretty dope. The amount of board protection you have looks frustratingly high, which seems good ;D
From glossing over the list, card draw might be a thing you'd want more of. Dusk Legion Duelist might help with that. For some burst draw, Return of the Wildspeaker is always powerful, and the new Become the Avalanche seems promising to me.

Cool deck! some good landfall cards I'd recommend are: - Abundance, this card is crazy in landfall decks, and assures you can get at least one trigger every turn - Ancient Greenwarden lets you double up all your landfall triggers - Scute Swarm is good, but can be really hard to keep track of - Return of the Wildspeaker would go great with your commander, 5 mana draw ten is pretty dang good - Irenicus's Vile Duplication gives you another etb and another 10/10 flyer - Displacer Kitten might be good, but you aren't running a ton of noncreature spells so, meh. very cool idea! have fun :) (ugh, i dont know how to format comments to be a bulleted list)

I would drop the lands that aren't allowed in his deck for lands like War Room
, Karn's Bastion, Boseiju, Who Endures, Scavenger Grounds, Opal Palace, Myriad Landscape, and Blighted Woodland. And for the ones that aren't allowed you can drop for just basic forests. Land count is pretty strong. For draw along with war room there is Garruk's Uprising, Guardian Project, Stocking the Pantry, Greater Good, Lifecrafter's Bestiary, Rishkar's Expertise (which feels like a flavor win), Return of the Wildspeaker, Beast Whisperer, and I would say Toski, Bearer of Secrets is surprisingly useful depending on how often you get through.

UPDATE
So I've changed a few cards out for some upgrades that I think will benefit this deck, and just make more sense for the synergy of this deck. (and it's name sake lol)
I swapped around the following:
Forest for Oakhollow Village *Basic Forest for Oakhollow I feel is a no brainer.
Forest for Thornvault Forager *Basic Forest for Thornvault I feel is a good upgrade as as it's a great mana ramp, and a source for Squirrel fetching.
Sword of Feast and Famine for Honored Dreyleader *The biggest reason for getting rid of Sword of Feast and Famine is because of the protection from green. It didn't dawn upon me that protection from green affected my spells too. Also, Honored Dreyleader is just an awesome Squirrel creature I just learned about.
Return of the Wildspeaker for Animal Friend *Return of the Wild Speaker is a pretty expensive card for what it does. Yeah, it's really good at drawing cards, but I feel I have enough card draw and fetches in this deck as is, and I feel for the cost, Animal Friend will find more use especially on Toski, Bearer of Secrets as he has to attack each turn if able.
Nylea, God of the Hunt for Rootcast Apprenticeship *I was for the most part using Nylea as a trample buff, but I've got a lot of that. Nylea is also a bit expensive for this purpose in this deck. Rootcast has a lot more use for it's cost as well.
