Removals and Additions —July 10, 2017
I have made a few alteration to the deck!
Caged Sun - Mainly wanted this for extra mana. Replaced with Vernal Bloom which is 2 CMC cheaper and provides the desired effect.
Garruk's Horde - Replaced this with Ghoultree. May get put back in as this is a good card with great utility but I wanted more cards like Allosaurus Rider that are big and have way to be cheated into play at a low cost. Ghoultree fit this profile exactly.
Tornado Elemental - Never found a time I ever really needed this on the field and wanted it. Replaced it with Witherscale Wurm. Medium CMC creature for large stats. Will easily be able to punch through blockers with Rhonas' ability and remove any counters put on it.
Harmonize - 3 cards for 4 mana is quite underwhelming when my other draw sorceries are netting 5+ consistently due to Rhonas generally always being in play. Replaced with Stonehoof Chieftain.
Emperor Crocodile - Always a bit of a filler card and didn't do much outside of early game Rhonas activation. Replaced with Soul of New Phyrexia. Any other card that can provide all permanents Indestructible is always welcome.
Polukranos, World Eater - Same as the croc above, didn't do much. Replaced with Hydra Omnivore because this with Rhonas pump will hurt everyone!
Thanks for the suggestion and checking out my deck!
The reason I decided not to add Leatherback Baloth was my turn 3 play would be Rhonas (ideally unless I had some ramp spells). Onwards from that, it doesn't really provide anything else in terms of utility or abilitys to enable other creatures. Much like Emperor Crocodile it would probably be replaced when I managed to get hold of any of my Maybeboard cards.

Leatherback Baloth would be a great card in this deck, cheap, great stats, and activates rhonas easily.
