Vivien, Champion of the Wilds

Legendary Planeswalker — Vivien

You may cast creature spells as though they had flash.

+1: Until your next turn, up to one target creature gains vigilance and reach.

-2: Look at the top three cards of your library. Exile one face down and put the rest on the bottom of your library in any order. For as long as it remains exiled, you may look at that card and you may cast it if it’s a creature card.

Nicely done—this looks like a ton of fun to play! Because you’re so creature heavy, how about Vivien, Champion of the Wilds ?

Some of your planes walkers are pretty good but some are not the best. Nissa natures artisan is just not a good planeswalker in this deck. Might i suggest some Nissa, Who Shakes the World , Vivien, Champion of the Wilds , Nissa, Voice of Zendikar , Jiang Yanggu, Wildcrafter , Vivien, Arkbow Ranger to name a few. They all go great with the double counter or double token with vorinclex.

For lands green has tons of good utility lands that can benefit from counter and token doubling. Oran-Rief, the Vastwood , Blast Zone , Khalni Garden , Llanowar Reborn , Field of the Dead to name a few. And green also has tons of land tutors to find these lands when you want them.

when when you're not getting planeswalkers going you can always go for the classic Rampaging Baloths , Helm of the Host to go crazy, Myr Battlesphere , Tendershoot Dryad , Mycoloth , Bane of Progress , Vigor . You can really just go crazy with tokens and counters here my guy

Here are my thoughts on the set so far:

Cabal Coffers reprint: Eh. Not like it's going to do anything in modern. Gotta please the edh players I guess, even in modern's premier set?

Counterspell reprint: No opinions on this one.

Yursi: More edh stuff. If it had haste it might be good enough, but as is it's not worth it.

Flametounge Yearling: Excelent design, might even be playable but I'm not placing any bets, esp since it'll shoot itself with no other legal targets. I imagine that'll get some people who weren't around when ftk was legal.

Thrasta, Tempests Roar: I mean... I'm not terribly excited about this card. Seems a bit strong, but it might be fine. Savage Summoning and Vivien, Champion of the Wilds are cards that exist but I doubt Thrasta alone would be enough to justify them.

Unmarked Grave: It's balanced, not much else to say there.

Profane Tutor: Possibly playable, but with ssg ban I'm not sure which decks even need this effect.

Grief: I like Unmask . What I don't like is turn one shock Godless Shrine evoke Grief, Ephemerate .

Rishadin Dockhand: I am a fan of this card. Seems like an easy include into merfolk decks, I don't know where else it will find a home though.

Timeless Dragon: It seems a bit slow for modern, bomb in limited I'd imagine. It's not unplayable though.

Dakkon, Shadow Slayer: I feel like I am underestimating this card whenever I look at it, so it wouldn't surprise me if it's powerful.

Diamond Lion is a great callback, it's not busted but it just might see play.

Brainstone is meh, just the way I like it. Don't underestimate it in artifact based decks though.

Urza's Saga: I wish this card didn't get printed, but here we are. At least playable in modern by my calculations (thank goodness it can't find Lotus Bloom ), but in formats with artifacts like Sol Ring it's pretty damn powerful, and it's also pretty free in many cases.

ramp:
Font of Fertility , Wayfarer's Bauble , Beanstalk Giant , Sakura-Tribe Elder Khalni Heart Expedition you can store the charges on it until you want to trigger landfall
draw:
Seer's Sundial , Colossal Majesty , Aid from the Cowl (fetchlands make this happen), Beast Whisperer , Guardian Project ,

land: Kessig Wolf Run , Castle Garenbrig , Mosswort Bridge , Gruul Turf , Guildless Commons . The 2 bounce lands can target themselves, so you can reuse next turn if you don,t have lands in hand lategame. With Azusa, you can bounce it 3x for 3 landfall triggers.

extra: Hammer of Purphoros Fires of Yavimaya Radha, Heart of Keld , Kenrith's Transformation , Song of the Dryads , Vivien, Champion of the Wilds , Lignify , Vivien, Monsters' Advocate , Cindervines , Bonecrusher Giant

maybe: Garruk's Uprising , Gruul Ragebeast , Lifecrafter's Bestiary , Yeva, Nature's Herald

backinstep on Kadena Morph U

Loving the inclusions of Tidal Barracuda and Vivien, Champion of the Wilds , Kadena's "each turn" clause is so great to abuse. Land count seems very low, even with the low overal CMC. Probably want to shoot for 33-34 minimum. Have you playtested this deck?

d_iros: your experience with what's underperforming should be your foremost guide, but here's my take:

Crystal Shard: Obviously versatile, but not essential. Does synergize minorly with Scroll of Fate & creature ETB triggers like Kadena tho

Mistfire Weaver: seems pretty mediocre, although it hurts a bit to cut a morph card

Elbrus, the Binding Blade  ^Flip & Lord of the Void: kinda mediocre, and cutting down on either would lower the average CMC. The Scroll helps with expensive stuff tho.

Not making your life easier but you might consider Vivien, Champion of the Wilds & Mystic Forge too

seshiro_of_the_orochi thanks for the suggestions and I'm glad you like the deck. As far as the arkbow and tooth and nail, I had them in here before but the creature count is so low that they didn't do as much work as I needed. Vivien, Champion of the Wilds on the other hand looks like an awesome card for this deck so I'll definitely find a spot for it.
