Griselbrand has been intriguing since the card was leaked. This will be updated as I figure out some descent combos. As with all multi-colored ramp decks

Here are the thoughts so far behind things here. (thanks senhor114 for your ideas)

Ramp: Green has the most effective ramp cards, currently these break down to Rampant Growth, Evolving Wilds and Somberwald Sage. While there are more, like Abundant Growth and other creatures of the like, I have stuck to these as they bump the curves

Land: with evolving wilds and rampant growth plus on basic land and 2 dual lands this nearly guarantees a forest in the opening hand and non-black lands s 10/60 chance. so two color as I see fit are usually set in the opening hand.

Somberwald Sage: This assists the Griselbrand price

Elgaud Shieldmate: Protects either a somberwald or griselbrand

Skirsdag High Priest: Potentially Early Demons

Gather the Townsfolk: This card fuels two others; The high priest, and the ravenous demon

Disciple of Griselbrand: In my mind this is the natural pair for the high priest. This forces the morbid ability and gains life, this also addresses Ravenous Demon  's alter ego when things get dangerous.

Reaper from the Abyss: This is a morbid creature that helps rid yourself of pesky creatures. With the somberwald sage, this starts on turn four possibly.

Harvester of Souls: This is the mid-game card draw accelarant.

Lashwrithe This boosts the small creatures until they are un-needed.

Murder: creature removal plain and simple

I've built two other decks beefcake,Angelic Paradise,with a roving 22 card center I.D.'d here: 6x Forest 4x Rampant Growth 3x Somberwald Sage 3x Vessel of Endless Rest 2x Cavern of Souls (I only own two) 2x Birds of Paradise* 2x Blessings of Nature
