1-2 GRN standard showdown —Oct. 16, 2018

hm chainwhirler is still a big problem for this deck. maybe could try Charge to combat it, also for alpha striking? but the list is so tight i wouldnt know where to make space for it..

g1: 0-2 rdw

g2: 2-0 bw lifegain

g3: 1-2 boros burn

Have you thought about including Make a Stand and/or Sheltering Light?

I'm able to pick off your value Creatures repeatedly with a recurring Spit Flame.

Argy agreed the deck desperately needs some protection, i'm just wondering which would be better for the deck. Sheltering Light is the best we're gonna get to replace Blossoming Defense in these colours i think, and protecting some key creatures is important, as opposed to Make a Stand which protects the board and buff's them once which means we could also use it as an alpha strike.......

hm, didn't think of Make a Stand like that before, I was thinking that might be better suited for sideboards where we might expect more board control like chainwhirler, Fiery Cannonade or that new Deafening Clarion?

I think dropping 1 Emmara, Soul of the Accord, 1 Leonin Warleader and 1 Camaraderie for 3 Sheltering Light mainboard, and throw 3 Make a Stand in the sideboard?

I like Arch of Orazca here; I need to consider it for my Selesnya elf deck too. I'm not sure it would work here, but on my GRN bucket list is resolving the second half of Assure / Assemble with Divine Visitation on the battlefield.

djnewellmit oh man, wouldn't that be the dream? I do like the protection side...but not at all sure what to drop. and Arch of Orazca has never been a dead card, infact just draws me cards since we go hard with the tokens! Its a shame not all the tokens are the same so i could take advantage of Radiant Destiny...but thats what Trostani Discordant is for! Thanks for the comment, and the +1!

I like your deck too! I think your deck is stronger than mine! Is there a way you can add another History of Benalia?

Why is there no Venerated Loxodon in here?

musicman3310 honestly, its been lackluster in testing and i have never thought in a game, "oh boy i wish i had a Loxodon right now", I know others have been having success with the card and i respect that, it just...not a card i want in this deck.

Curiously though, how many would you run and what would you drop?

I would try to find a home for Shalai, Voice of Plenty in the sideboard and move Venerated Loxodon in. The big reason for Loxodon is ending turn 3 with 12 power on the board. Turn 1: Land, Turn 2: Land then Saproling Migration, Turn 3: Land then Saproling Migration then convoke Venerated Loxodon. Also, possibly try testing a playset of Pride of Conquerors.
