And now my watch begins.
This is a very aggressive mono-green tribal wolf deck. The objective is simple- get out your Silverfur Partisan and use it to generate as many tokens as you can. If he is the target of removal, use Sheltering Word to keep him on the field and generate an extra token-or two if it was targeted removal. Then, when you can get your Howlpack Resurgance out, your 2/2 wolf pack can get up to 6/6...then play Setessan Tactics to rip apart the defenders.
Some synergies in the deck are:
Sheltering Word
+
Silverfur Partisan
or Setessan Tactics
+
Silverfur Partisan
are your powerhouse token generators. Two tokens for targeted removal, and as many as you care to pay for when you go offensive.
Wolfir Avenger
is your main blocker, as you can regenerate him with the mana generated from Nissa's Pilgrimage
Moonlight hunt (sadly) does not generate tokens, but it works well against even large creatures as it does damage based on the entire pack.
Garruk is thrown in for spice, since he generates tokens and deathtouch tokes (when flipped) and generally makes life more difficult for your opponent.
The Sideboard:
This deck does well against most beck types, as it is aggressive enough to keep your opponent unbalanced. However, if you get into a war of attrition (so to speak) there are some answers in the sideboard.
Skyreaping. Here's the thing- this card is invaluable against flyer-heavy decks. The only drawback, is that it is tied to your devotion to green. So unless you have a few permanents out and you're not relying solely on your tokens you will be fine. I use this one a lot.
Return to the Earth
is a good way to deal with artis, enchantments, or a single flyer, but it's utility in this deck is limited more to the first two rather than the flyer. You can switch it out with
Moonlight Hunt
or
Predator's Howl
(x2 and x2) if you need to, but avoid touching your Setessan Tactics
+
Sheltering Word
as these make your tokens.
Witchstalker is good against a specific deck type (Black/Blue control) but it tends to be limited in other areas, so it is relegated to the sideboard. I usually switch it out with
Moonlight Hunt
x4 depending on the opponent.
