Let me open with this: This deck might have a hard time with the current metagame. In such a removal-heavy metagame, +1/+1 counter-centric cards get less effective. Luckily for us, this deck solves that problem with too many creatures for them to entirely wipe out! Hardened Scales and Winding Constrictor are the real MVPS, turning formerly "Ok" cards into absolute monsters. Lotleth Troll is by far one of the best cards in this deck. With a single Hardened Scales out, you can start beating with a regenerating trampler with crazy amounts of power and toughness. Abrupt Decay needs no introduction. Genesis Hydra, along with a bit of mana, can be a devastating board presence move. Cruel Sadist serves as a decent late game beater and good removal every now and then. Tuskguard Captain helps get crucial damage through. Avatar of the Resolute is broken, but hard to cast. Silumgar Assassin is a removal spell in creature's clothes. Den Protector is Den Protector. Corpsejack Menace is basically your backup constrictor with a better late game, and if you ever get an attack off with Kalonian Hydra, you've won the game. Protean Hydra Works crazy well with scales or constrictor. Rishkar, Peema Renegade can ramp for your larger creatures. Savage Summoning in the sideboard will get you through control matchups, and that should be it. Suggestions Encouraged!
