Cadira looks like such a fun commander. Personally I would make these swaps:

Sheltering Boughs -> Battle Mastery
Giant Growth -> Fireshrieker
Nature's Embrace -> Song of Freyalise
Escape from Orthanc -> Hope Against Hope
Massive Might -> Sigil of the Nayan Gods
Savage Surge -> Eidolon of Countless Battles
Saddle of the Cavalier -> Hunter's Prowess
Nahiri, the Lithomancer -> Shamanic Revelation
Marble Diamond -> Avacyn's Pilgrim
Witch's Oven -> Mosswort Bridge
Cloak of the Bat -> Windbrisk Heights
Sigardian Paladin -> Pollenbright Wings
Dormant Grove -> Gilded Goose
Biogenic Upgrade -> Camaraderie
Manifold Key -> Rabble Rousing
Wedding Invitation -> Shield of the Oversoul

Btw if don't like Nature's Chosen and how it's dependent on Cradle, you can use Song of Freyalise for a true mana converter. It's not as explosive but more consistency

@Licecolony Thank you for your suggestions. I appreciate it.

In my experience with this deck. By the time I was able to attack I had so many tokens on the field that there wasn't a lot that my opponent was able to do to protect themselves anyway. Either that or I won through Epic Struggle. Trample isn't that helpful since most creatures will have a power of 1 anyway. Stampede may help with this problem but usually my opponents creatures had toughness 2 or higher.

However, Song of Freyalise sounds like a good addition, for the indestructible and vigilance.

Thanks again. :)

Don't assume you want to run a Song of Freyalise effect or Stampede effect?

SunoKasai - I like the deck list. Very similar to mine (Gishath Spared No Expense!!!). I like the addition of Song of Freyalise and Overwhelming Stampede. I had not thought of those cards and they pair well with Gishath.

You might consider Commune with Dinosaurs or Thunderherd Migration over Adventurous Impulse. Topiary Stomper is also pretty sweet in terms of establishing a presence on the field and also providing some early ramp.

If you want to make Raggadragga have an impact on this deck, you can add things like Cryptolith Rite, Song of Freyalise, and Paradise Mantle, because they give your creatures mana abilities. There's probably more out there than just those, but just make sure that they actually give the abilities to your creatures.

Max_Hammer on These silly hoomans - Need Help

Well hello there! I had way too much time on my hands, so here’s this. By the way, it’s all ordered best to worst. (:

Ramp

Pay less to play more.

• Circle of Dreams Druid is going to drop loads of mana, assuming you can pay the three green.
• Fallaji Wayfarer is going to give all of your stuff (including your commander) convoke! Not all, but a lot.
• Hamza, Guardian of Arashin is going to make a lot of your creatures cost a lot less.
• Herald of War makes all of your humans dirt cheap if he gets counters. But, oh, what’s that? This deck loves making counters for creatures? Perfect.
• Nissa's Expedition is just Cultivate but it potentially costs a lot less.
• Gaea's Cradle is perfect if you have a small fortune laying around and you’re in need of mana.

Draw

I need more! More!!!

• Bennie Bracks, Zoologist every time you make a token? So every turn? Alright, sick.
• Ulvenwald Mysteries lets you investigate the murder of your entire army. A board wipe kills this deck, but this (plus loads of mana) could help bring it back.
• Season of Growth lets you scry a lot, letting you look for pretty much whatever and just pull it out.

Removal

No, you’re not allowed to have that! Because I said so! Exile it! Now!

• Devouring Light, Conclave Tribunal, Hour of Reckoning are all removal spells but if you’re on a mana budget with a lot of 1/1’s.
• Elspeth Tirel is a board wipe, if you manage to keep her around for long enough. If that’s not what you need, though, she’s got plenty of utility otherwise.
• Coordinated Barrage, Kabira Takedown  ^Flip, and Outflank aren’t super powerful, but can destroy pretty much anything that comes your way. If it’s not hexproofed, shrouded, or indestructible, it will be killed.
• Devout Chaplain says “The power of Christ compels you! Begone!” but this time it actually works.
• Sanctuary Lockdown lets you say “Not this combat phase, Satan,” and if you have enough mana, you can do that again and again and again. Plus, if you decide you can’t, then it’s still a big boy.
• Kamahl's Will will destroy just about anything in sight and can give you extra attacking force, if you can manage a way to keep all of your lands safe.

Protection

Gotta keep your stuff safe, yeah?

• Loxodon Hierarch is going to save your deck (which is very sensitive to board wipes) from a board wipe, judy once. Use wisely.
• Scapegoat won’t save your tokens, but it will save everyone else, commander included.
• Kindred Boon can slowly but surely make literally every creature you own indestructible.
• Ephemeral Shields is extra protection that can easily be pulled out of your back pocket.
• Basri's Lieutenant isn’t going to save your deck, but it will buy you time or give you a chance next turn at a kill, if the board wiper was low.

Buffs (and +1/+1 Counters)

Make all of your stuff bigger!

• Song of Freyalise is budget, makes every spell into a convoke spell, and then lets your hammer your opponents with the might of ZEUS!!
• Path of Ancestry should go into every tribal deck!! Well, maybe not every, but it’d definitely be good in this one, so there you go.
• Branching Evolution is just perfect for this deck. Double it, yesssss!
• Hydra's Growth would be perfect on your commander, especially since your best protection works just on them.
• Rick, Steadfast Leader is enough to make a human deck cry. This is no longer a democracy, this is a Ricktatorship.
• Crowned Ceratok, Tuskguard Captain, and Bramblewood Paragon all give your big creatures trample. Just yes.

Tokens

Make more stuff! The theme of these suggestions is Give me more, if you couldn’t have guessed.

• Horn of Valhalla can both make a bunch of tokens and then use those tokens to make a big, fuck off 99/99.
• Voice of Resurgence protects you against, or at least discourages the use of, counters and murders on your turn. Why? It makes a big, fuck off 99/99 when someone does.
• Queen Allenal of Ruadach makes more tokens and is a massive body. What’s not to like?
• Hanweir Militia Captain  ^Flip is a mean creature and makes plenty of tokens.
• Primal Vigor, Second Harvest, Anointed Procession, Parallel Lives, and Doubling Season all say “What, you thought I was going to stop at only one million?” Though, I do have a feeling you left these out intentionally. Either they weren’t working or you avoid doubling strategies like these, which totally makes sense.

Might of the Masses

Might of the Masses is always fun in a creature deck, one green for a massive “Fuck you” at instant speed is great. Now here’s a bunch of Might of the Masses style cards.

• Craterhoof Behemoth is, to say the least, a strong card. All of them get trample? And +99/+99? And it has haste? This is a way to turn a game around fast if I’ve ever seen one. The ultimate Might of the Masses creature.
• Might of the Masses is the classic. Instant destruction for just one green. Perfection.
• Seraph of the Masses is a Might of the Masses creature with flying and convoke.
• Shanna, Sisay's Legacy is a Might of the Masses creature with ability hexproof.
• Appeal / Authority is just slow Might of the Masses.
• Huatli, Radiant Champion is Might of the Masses but in Planeswalker form.
• Sigil of the Nayan Gods is Might of the Masses in enchantment form.
• Crusader of Odric is a poor man’s Might of the Masses creature

GIDEON

I was looking for cards with the keyword “Human” and a million Gideon cards came up, so here’s all of the Gideon Planeswalkers. None of them are bad, per se, but all Gideon cards are not made equal.

• Gideon, the Oathsworn just happens to slip and give all of your creatures an absurd number of counters. Not to mention the big body (noticing a pattern yet?) and the one-sided board wipe! He’s got a weird face again, sadly, pass.
• Gideon, Champion of Justice is a board wipe and a big, bad creature all wrapped into one. 7/10, he can dominate me.
• Gideon Jura can goad and destroy stuff. Perfect for removal and instigating fights when you know you’ll win. Not to mention the big scary 6/6 lurking beneath. Also a weird face, pass.
• Gideon of the Trials reads “Fuck your biggest creature, he’s not going to do anything, and also, as long as I’m around, fuck you more.” Nothing crazy, but can definitely make you public enemy #1 for having an effect like that. Pretty normal face, but that ability makes him a dick. 3.4/10
• Kytheon, Hero of Akros  ^Flip is just some kid. Ignore him. This is a child, pass.
• Gideon, Battle-Forged!? Where did you come from? Nothing super interesting here, but for one mana not bad. Weird face, pass.
• Gideon, Martial Paragon can give buffs to all of your stuff, which is definitely not bad at all, and your opponents are automatically dead if he gets that ten ability off. That said, this Gideon can get it. 10/10.
• Gideon Blackblade is eh. He’s okay. He can get it, though. 7/10.
• Gideon, Ally of Zendikar can do some generic Gideon stuff. Make tokens, give buffs, be a 4/4. Eh. 6.7/10.

Too Lazy to Make Another Name, AKA Misc.

This is just stuff I couldn’t find a specific panel for, so yeah.

• Reconnaissance lets you attack with everything and then say “Well, no, actually, I didn’t attack with those.” This is one of those cards in Magic that you just have to believe was invented or inspired by toddler games where they invent the rules as they go along, y’know? Anyway swing at will!
• Peach Garden Oath is one mana for a crazy amount of lifegain. Lets you swing aggressively and pay as much life as you want.
• Kindred Summons gives you the gift of as many humans as you damn please. That said, be careful not to deck yourself.
• Sigarda, Champion of Light is the other Sigarda card you might want to add, since she likes giving you stuff.
• Chord of Calling is just a plain good tutor.
• Flight of Equenauts, Ledev Guardian, Conclave Equenaut, Conclave Phalanx, and Argivian Phalanx, are just free creatures, more or less.

What to Take Out

Your deck is pretty spotless, so unless some of these are direct upgrades or you know what you want to take out, then this is all I have for you here.

Thraben Doomsayer’s first ability can be easily beaten by other cards, and his second ability is mostly useless, since you’re pretty screwed at 5 HP either way.

Heron's Grace Champion Lifelink is cool, but not something you super need. It’d be worth it if it was permanent, but it’s not, so pass.

Maja, Bretagard Protector just feels a little expensive for such a lackluster ability, Idunno.

Epicurus on Curse of the Were-Rabbit

I suggest Freyalise, Llanowar's Fury and Song of Freyalise for added ramp, and Saproling Symbiosis as well as Night Soil for token generation.

Finally, Bloodspore Thrinax works better for this kind of deck than most people give it credit for.
