No I haven't thought about Avatar of the Resolute. I think he is a good idea and will swap them out for him.

Dismember might be a viable psuedo removal spell, if you're willing to pay 4 life

Yes I may add Dismember. Especially since I can gain a lot of life using Genesis Wave and Primeval Bounty combo.

The classic green kill spell is Beast Within or you can with things like Prey Upon.

+1 from me -- Working with something similar myself. Only thing I could really recommend is Nylea, God of the Hunt -- Everything has trample is always good in stompy.
Mind checking mine out and letting me know what you think? Your build uses a lot more instants/sorceries, I'm not really sure what and where to cut to make the deck sing, if you get what I mean...

No I am not adding Avacyn :(. And I am not sure about Nylea. She is 4 mana 6/6 and creatures get trample which is good. Should I remove Nylea Bow and put in Nylea.

I don't really need Karametra's Acolyte. Because It doesn't have a high devotion and with Nykthos, Shrine to NyxI don't really need any mana.

any form of card draw might be better than bow, Life's Legacy is super efficient and can turn a game around

Yes I definitely agree with you and will add it. Thanks for the idea. :)

Ditch the Primalcrux and the Hydra and add more Geist and Kitchen Finks. Then I would think about getting rid of the Savage Summoning and go with Rancor. Basically you are going all in on Nykthos and devotion and I just don't think that's a great plan. You are going to face removal and other than Geist you just aren't that resilient. Just my opinion though.

Primalcrux can get massive and give heaps of devotion and so does Khalni Hydra. Yes it can be annoying with removal but when Kitchen Finks dies it becomes a 2/1 and Strangleroot Geist a 3/2. With devotion It is easy to get out Primalcrux and I can getKhalni Hydra out for zero mana. Using just one,two,three drops there isn't much of a point of using Nykthos.

Scute Mob! Those little guys are my favorite green card!

That card is pretty cool I will put him on the sideboard if he is needed.

Vigor is definitely one of my favourites in monogreen that can utilize devotion well (with Nykthos). Bellowing Tanglewurm can be a big game changer too.

MooneBoyIrish says... #20
I'm not sure about Bellowing Tanglewurm but I will add it to the sideboard. I think Vigor is a good idea but I will put it on the sideboard until I know what to get rid of. Do you have any ideas of what to substitute Vigor for. Thanks for the ideas :)

I'm personally not big fan of Primeval Bounty. It's more a "win harder" card. So I would replace those myself.

I love huge creatures, so I think this deck is great already. Have you tried or thought about Craterhoof Behemoth? Hitting one off of a Genesis Wave can be pretty brutal.
March 26, 2015 2:13 p.m.
MooneBoyIrish says... #23
Yes it would be. But I think Craterhoof Behemoth is better in a token deck. But it would be good with Genesis Wave. I may add it but I am not sure

4x Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx. The legendary rule is your friend in devotion decks. Nyxthos + Genesis Wave + another Nykthos in hand = win, then win again.
Tap the first Nykthos, get the mana, put the next Nykthos in play (it comes in untapped), use 2 of the mana to activate the second Nykthos. Then cast whatever you want. I run 4 in my black devotion deck and never look back. Its great.
My deck: Phyrexian Face-Desecration, take a look if you like, maybe it will help with ideas and ways to go, even though its a different color.

Also, Sylvan Scrying to make sure you get Nykthos on the table might be good in place of Life's Legacy. It looks like you'll draw enough big guys, you just need the boost to get them out sooner.

Have you thought about Avatar of the Resolute instead of Kalonian Tusker? Straight of the bat it might have 1 toughness lower butin the later game or with an Experiment One it becomes tougher. There seems to be quite a few +1/+1 effects which would boost Avatar of the Resolute to quite high stats.
