HUGE UPDATE —April 10, 2017

This update has been in the works for some time. After lots of games, casual and competitive I have added and taken out things that I think work better. I am always open to more suggestions and will keep testing each suggestion as they come in.

So now to the cuts in the deck.

Bellowing Tanglewurm

Reality Smasher

Exploration

Birthing Pod

Hurricane

Increasing Savagery

Freyalise, Llanowar's Fury

6x Forest

Here is what I have added over the last month or two. After doing the update I realized it also added about $100 to the deck. The good thing is I didn't have to spend the money but to just take apart some old decks I no longer use.

Artisan of Kozilek

Conduit of Ruin

Eldrazi Conscription

Sylvan Library

Mana Vault

Sol Ring

Sensei's Divining Top

Nissa, Worldwaker

Paradox Engine

Wasteland

Eldrazi Temple

Crumbling Vestige

Eye of Ugin

Love Selvala, she is my favorite commander so far. I love playing Hydra Broodmaster with her because the monstrosity ability can be a game winner

Thank you. Eldrazi Conscription is one of the few cards I can't find a copy of. When I find it I am going to swap it out.

Some cards that I run in a deck with her that is very very very similar, that I would advise looking into is Natural Order and Tooth and Nail along with if you feel that mana isn't going to be a problem with the deck, it isn't necessarily good, but since I as well usually have crap tons of mana to burn look into a Ring of Three Wishes

+1!!! I'm loving the all Green!!!

I've built Selvala before, and I like your iteration of it, but you should really includeStaff of Domination before you include the other infinites.

Thank you Roujou I like the Staff of Domination and it is currently in my other Selvala deck. I am trying to find another copy of it so it can go in this deck. The staff is a really good versatile card and when you make infinite mana its just broken.

I really like Selvala, Heart of the Wilds, she is in fact my main EDH commander. Selvala Rampage, this is my list if you want to take a look. If you bring in Tooth and Nail you should as well bring in Craterhoof Behemoth and a token generator like Avenger of Zendikar or Hornet Queen.

Also Eternal Witness, Scavenging Ooze, and Green Sun's Zenith are all really powerfull green card that you should considerated

Have you tried Phyrexian Dreadnought? I personnaly don't like the idea but it might be better than what I expect

Thank you arvedin. This deck has become on of my primary decks that I use. Tooth and Nail and Craterhoof Behemoth are cards I have been thinking of putting in but it is hard to justify spending $50.00 on the set. Who knows I might find to trade but until then I will leave them out. Phyrexian Dreadnought seems amazing and I will have to find a copy. With all of the large creatures I run This would be great. I looked at your build and I really enjoy the recursion aspect.

Great Deck! Selvala is a great pick for a commander. I thought is to remove Bane of Progress. Though it is a good sideboard addition against artifact decks I found it to also be very harmful against myself when play testing it. It came up as my Wild vote in Selvala's Stampede and destroyed doubling cube and multiple other artifacts.

I understand your thought on Bane of Progress. I keep it in due to the fact that I don't really sideboard for commander. Also if are able to play this early in the game eliminating Sol Ring and a handful of other stuff you will be up and this deck doesnt really need the mana rocks due to Selvala's ability.

I have been able to play huge Eldrazi on turn 4 or 5 and its just devastating. The only real artifact I would care about would be the infinite mana combo pieces. Even then I dont try to get them to make the game more fun.

That new Paradox Engine would be disgusting in here.

BLARGH!! No one listens when I say Multani, Maro-Sorcerer with this... Seriously 6 cmc shrouded mega critter that produces a ridiculous amount of mana with Selvala - moreso the more opponents you have. I have broken people with that combo. Also, he is protected from targeted effects making 1/2 of the combo quite resilient... Also, probably less awesome but still worth considering Gyre Sage

Gotta love Timmy Green decks! I like the use of Eldrazi in this deck. I have a deck that I have built but chose not to use Eldrazi and find other giant creatures to use. Check it out and let me know what you think! Omnath, Locus of Creature Ramp
