Weird Harvest looks up Ancestral Statue and Walking Ballista for a more reliable route to that combo. Spellseeker can also look up Weird Harvest.

Also if you ever get Imperial Recruiter and Spellseeker in here... also add Neoform . The following is the most streamlined way to combo in Animar and only requires 2 counters on Animar: , 4 life, and Imperial Recruiter in hand. Imperial Recruiter looks up Phyrexian Metamorph . Metamorph for 2 life copies Recruiter and looks up Spellseeker . Spellseeker looks up Neoform . Neoform sacs Spellseeker to look up Ancestral Statue . Play Statue bouncing itself until Animar is double your opponents life total then use Statue's final bounce to return Phyrexian Metamorph to hand. Metamorph for 2 life again copies Imperial Recruiter to look up Walking Ballista for the win.

Hey Apollo_Paladin

Thanks for the suggestions! I've actually been meaning to get back to you on this and pick your brain a little more, but never managed to make the time for it. The release of TimeSpiral Remastered (and therefore replacing Bojuka Bog and Reclamation Sage with the old card look) however gave me the required kick in the pants that I needed.

I'm not sure on Tribal Unity - I'd probably add in more Warcallers at that point.

Helix Pinnacle in the deck beforehand, but giving my opponent even one turn to counter left me with a sour taste in my mouth. Sands of Delirium might be a better fit (and has been added to the maybeboard).

Vanquisher's Banner is a big potential. It could replace either Coat of Arms or Slate of Ancestry , but there are tradeoffs on both sides.

Sylvan Messenger - card draw! That's really the biggest issue this deck has had is it can burn itself out in situations and be left with an empty hand. any other suggestions for card draw (hence Weird Harvest in the maybeboard) would be appreciated.

Cloudstone Curio is amazing with morph creatures.

Walking Ballista is your best finisher here. Especially if you run Ancestral Statue as the above poster recommended. If you add these 2 cards, also add Weird Harvest to tutor the combo up. Shrieking Drake is another option that's a bit fairer than Statue if you're avoiding infinite combos.

Cloud of Faeries, Peregrine Drake, Stadium Vendors, Great Whale, and Palinchron are worth their weight in gold in Animar.

You avoiding Ancestral Statue combos on purpose? I guess either way, I'd suggest Neoform and Weird Harvest to look up your Cloudstone combos even though they're both a bit better with Ancestral Statue and Walking Ballista. You can also substitute creatures that immediately replace their mana along with your morph creatures. Consider Beastcaller Savant, Cloud of Faeries, Peregrine Drake, Great Whale, Palinchron, and/or Stadium Vendors.

Feel free to check out my list for ideas, it's Cloudstone and Ancestral combo and the list is pretty optimized. Upvotes on any of my decks are appreciated. Animar, Gaea's Hemorrhoid

The 3 main things I'm noticing are that this deck lacks card draw, your non-creature count is really high for Animar (shoot for like 18 or less non-creatures), and the avg. cmc needs to come down to about 3.3 or less. Animar will rip through your hand fast... cards that draw over and over on your turn are your bread and butter here. Beast Whisperer, Soul of the Harvest, Primordial Sage, and Glimpse of Nature are your best bets.

Also, assuming you aren't against combo, consider Cloudstone Curio bounce combos or Neoform/Weird Harvest combos to look up Ancestral Statue/Walking Ballista for the win.

Animar, Gaea's Hemorrhoid for reference. Upvotes are appreciated.

ElGatix123 Hello! Well, this deck is a very casual deck for me personally. I usually bring this deck out when people just want mass chaos to happen or to see a deck of theirs pop off early. But there are some win cons; I have two: Approach of the Second Sun and Folio of Fancies. Approach of the Second Sun is very self-explanatory and with how much card draw this deck can get and also add crazy amounts of mana for ourselves, it shouldn't be too hard unless somebody counters it, of course. Folio of Fancies gives everybody no maximum hand size, which is nice. It can draw everybody a good amount of card draw or we are feeling not nice, when everybody draws a lot of cards, we can use its second ability and mill out our opponents equal to the number of cards in hand. (Which, as I said before, this deck has a lot of card draw in it.)

But that's it if you're wanting to win with the deck. It can do it, but very rarely because most of the time, people won't suspect us doing anything too bad because we're helping everybody out and they don't want to get rid of their support. (Unless they hate group hug decks, then welp.) I know you can do crazy things with a group hug deck, especially you can be very political with it if you wanted to as well. If you want to know a favorite chaotic combination, I like to save a lot of mana available (or have my mana doublers out) and use Weird Harvest, but save two green mana for Tempting Wurm. Play Tempting Wurm afterward and see the board EXPLODE! If you want to be mean, you could probably do all of what I said and then play a board wipe (you just gotta add one in the deck, shouldn't be too hard) to blow up all of their creatures or whatever type of wipe you put in there, especially would be good if you have out Tidal Barracuda during that. Anyways, if this deck doesn't do it for you well enough, I can also recommend Kenrith, the Returned King as a Group Hug/Political deck as you get all of the colors to play with instead of just the Bant Colors.

My apologies, I was hastily typing that at work and didn't double check your decklist before I finished my comment. So let me completely rephrase it. I do recommend Weird Harvest for fetching out all creatures. A fun interaction with Craterhoof is God-Eternal Rhonas, play him after Craterhoof to double all the creature's p&t even more which is good going against heavy token decks especially I've found, as well as the temporary vigilance buff to keep blockers around in a multiplayer match. Even without Hoof she's good under the right circumstances for swinging in solo with something like Marwyn.
