Creature (4)

Enchantment (4)


Opinions and suggestion are greatly appreciated :) Help with sideboard in particular would be greatly appreciated.

Basically a G/W Aggro deck that emphasizes aggressively costed creatures that are resilient.

-Armada Wurm provides two body to help with recovering quickly after a board wipe.

-Thragtusk is just a lot of value in one card from providing life recovery against more aggressive decks and an extra body in case of removal.

-Restoration Angel is there to abuse Armada Wurm and Thragtusk as well as resetting Silverblade Paladin or protect a card from a removal spell.

-Silverblade Paladin over Loxodon Smiter because giving seemingly innocuous card such as a centaur token or a Strangleroot Geist double-strike will hopefully catch people off-guard.

-Strangleroot Geist is just very aggressive getting in for some early damage and needs to be killed twice. Giving it a rancor early on would also put a lot of pressure on an opponent.

-Avacyn Pilgrim for ramping purposes. Considering switching for an Arbor Elf but for this deck I think both are equal.

-Oblivion Ring as a catch-all removal

-Selesnya Charm primarily as a form of removal (especially in conjunction with Rancor), a 2/2 body secondary, and the pump/trample tertiary.

-Call of the Conclave for a watchwolf. No more, no less.

-Rancor because it's rancor. Also becomes a handy combo with Selesnya Charm

-Grafdigger's Cage to fight zombies in particular but also handy to stop any graveyard shenanigans.

-Loxodon Smiter in the control match up. I'm not sure about the exact numbers, but I planned on switching 4 in for Silverblade Paladin for that situation.

-Sundering Growth for some artifact and enchantment removal and possibility of populating.

-Thalia is also for the control match-up substituting for Call of the Conclave.

-Trostani is just there because I would love to be able to populate a bit, I suppose the life gain would also be helpful against aggro decks of the same speed
