Please make suggestions!

This deck has been a hoot for me. Playing around with giant, intimidating creatures and stomping people over is fun, but this deck ALSO splashes in politics and battle shaping! (But once your friends catch on, they’ll know not to trust your disarmingly friendly Rites of Flourishing or Mana Flare).

The gameplan for this deck is using group hug cards on low mana to ramp out fast, then dropping fatties and hitting face. Laying low in the early game is very easy with a good number of ramp, mana dorks, and group hugs. Playing prison cards further disarms your opponents into believing you’re a group hug fun-type guy. Furthermore, colour fixing is a breeze in Naya, with a central colour of green.

$300 is an intimidating pricetag to new and/or budget players. I get that. The inclusion of Praetors, Dinosaurs, and Angels is NOT a necessity! The concept of this deck is unhindered by their removal. Ramp early + be friendly = hit hard.

(Also, take note of the sweet little infinite with Aggravated Assault + Savage Ventmaw )
