Caran_Lyg on Happy Tree Friends

Only reason why I would use Finale of Devastation is if I’m aiming for an ultra budget build, but then again, I can just use dual tap lands and still use Chord of Calling. Look at it this way, before my opponents end phase if I have either Ivy Lane Denizen or Scurry Oak in the field and have plenty of mana to use, I can cast Chord of Calling to tutor either one that’s not on the field, I can get the combo going while it’s still their turn. And when it’s my turn I can immediately go to combat with however many squirrels I decided to create. Does that make more sense @Predator_90?

Predator_90 Instant > Sorcery. Why would I pay 10 additional mana for a sorcery? Chord of Calling have 2 targets: Ivy Lane Denizen and Scurry Oak. Paying that extra 6 or 7 mana for a sorcery makes no sense. Think about it. I don’t need that pump when I got 1 million squirrels. And on top of that if I have Impact Tremors, before I even get a million squirrels, opponent would be done at 20.

BlueTorche on !!! Chatterfang and the hungry Crew !!!

In my personal decklist (Chatterfang Casual EDH), I have 3 win cons :

  • Lifedrain (with Bastion of Remembrance, Zulaport Cutthroat and Blood Artist), which is the most reliable one, as it usually kills all my opponents at once. With Chattefang, it's easy to reach 20+ drains, which is huge in late game.

  • Big tokens (with cards like Creakwood Liege, Return of the Wildspeaker, Craterhoof Behemoth (more expensive this one)), which can easily kill your opponent if you have 10+ squirrel on the battlefield. Garruk, Cursed Huntsman isn't a bad addition in the deck, but I think it's a bit "slow", as it will need at least 1 full turn of table before having the emblem. Your opponents will usually focus it and kill it during this time.

  • Commander Damage, it doesn't happen often (to be honest, I never killed someone with commander damage in more than 20 games). But it is useful if you play against a lifegain deck or a stax deck. Commander damage can easily be done when you buff all your squirrels (including Chatterfang), and you can also sacrifice X squirrels to give +X/-X to Chatterfang. It's also why I suggested Yavimaya, Cradle of Growth, which make your commander unblockable (and is a good land anyway). The BLB card The Odd Acorn Gang you put in the deck also helps this win condition.

Additionally, Pitiless Plunderer and Warren Soultrader are cards that wins you the game always all the time you'll play it with Chatterfang, as they'll give you almost-infinite mana and ETB/LTB trigger.

Another win condition would be to add Ivy Lane Denizen, which combo with Scurry Oak and give you an infinite/infinite creature and infinite 1/1 squirrels. You may need to add some creature tutor to get both of the cards at the same time (I would suggest Chord of Calling, Dig Up, Diabolic Tutor and Fauna Shaman as buget card. You may also add more expensive card like Vampiric Tutor or Demonic Tutor).

As you say, with the new BLB card, it may exist other win conditions, which can involve food token.

I think you shouldn't focus on one particular win condition. Having more than one way to win can make your deck more reliable (that is my opinion, it may not be true). However, focusing on 1 or 2 win conditions will help you cut some card and having a better deck (it's a question of perfectly balance, as all think should be).

I will also suggest you Acorn Harvest which give you squirrel (not a very strong card, but for 6 mana it creates you 4 squirrels (8 with Chatterfang), not bad).

As cut suggestions, I would suggest Acorn Catapult (which I find very expensive, just to create 1 Squirrel by turn), Cloakwood Hermit (as it need "creature card" put in your graveyard. However, token aren't cards (rule 111.6. A token is subject to anything that affects permanents in general or that affects the token’s card type or subtype. A token isn’t a card) so it doesn't work (I thought about this card when a friend suggests it to me, I was disappointed to learn this rule :( )) and Squirrel Mob (on paper, the card seems good in the deck, but fill the board with tokens is better than having a big creature that will be blocked by anything). I also find Squirrel Sanctuary a bit slow (but it combos with Earthcraft, which I don't have because of its price, but make Squirrel Sanctuary strong). Wrap in Vigor is literally a Golgari Charm in less good (its only advantage is that is cost instead of ). Toski, Bearer of Secrets is also a card I find a bit slow. I bought it for my deck, but it never convinced me, and I would prefer Driven / Despair to it, which can also help you win, or other draw cards (Village Rites, Plumb the Forbidden...). Finally, Putrefy is not the most relevant card in the deck, as you already have a lot of Artifact/Enchantment removal, and Chatterfang is a creature removal. You may prefer Nature's Claim or Maelstrom Pulse as removal, or add more token synergy card (you can also add Crack Open, which is similar to Pest Infestation in the deck (I need to buy Pest Infestation, it seems incredible in a Chatterfang deck))

Quicksilver on Squirrely Wrath!

Warstorm Surge is so slow for this kind of deck. I'd replace the etb trigger for a sac outlet like Goblin Bombardment, which can do early pinging. Ivy Lane Denizen doesn't really synergise with anthem effects either, you'd be just randomly sticking the counter onto a creature if Scurry Oak isn't out on the field.

Forgot about Scurry Oak which is obviously very similar, but Basking Broodscale doesn't need another card to make a token, goes infinitive with e.g. Blade of the Bloodchief and can produce infinitive colorless mana

Hello Pawkiest! I'm so glad you had a fun time playing the deck! Tooth and Nail is supposed to be a one card win condition due to it tutoring for both Rosie Cotton of South Lane and Scurry Oak to get infinite creatures with summoning sickness, to create a powerful combo that's still balanced for people to respond. Again, I'm glad you had a good time with the deck! Honestly it could be cut if its CMC is too high for what your playing, but I'll leave it up to you! Thanks!
