Legacy Infect Mono-Green Tokens

The object of this deck is to play a fairly standard looking infect deck on your first battle with the opponent. On games two and 3 I switch out to a squirrel based infect strategy.

So the basic idea for game 1 is to pump a Glistener Elf or other low cost infect creature with Invigorate + Mutagenic Growth in order to quickly win the game. Lands like Oran-Rief, the Vastwood + Pendelhaven can also help with creature pumping. Larger infect creatures like Phyrexian Hydra are there in case the small creature strategy doesn't really work out. Sometimes a larger creature can do the job better, especially when control fizzles out with countering all the little green creatures. To counter board wipe, I have Swarmyard + Yavimaya Hollow

For game 2 and possibly 3, the idea is to switch out Giant Growth, Necropede, Ichorclaw Myr, Rotwolf and Core Prowler with the sideboard. The sideboard focuses on squirrel production. Possibly attach a Druid's Call to a Liege of the Hollows . Chatter of the Squirrel also is a low cost way to generate a couple of squirrels. The main show will be with Arbor Elf + Squirrel Nest + Copperhorn Scout + Instill Energy . All of these cards have synergy in getting out multiple squirrels per turn, even with just one Squirrel Nest out.

Other items of note. I love cantrips so 4 Explore is a must! Also influenced me to include 4 Rotwolf. Any card draw is welcome. Maze of Ith is just an all around excellent card for thwarting enemy attact steps. Courser of Kruphix helps with mana ramp to such an insane degree at times, that I believe a copy may be warrented. Herald of the Pantheon is an interesting card which decreases the cost of the Druid's Call + Squirrel Nest . Playtesting a copy has proven effective.
