---

Herrow! And welcome to Agro-Culture. The basic plan is to ramp into any of several options for the late game that will let me run over my opponent with massive stompy-style creatures. Keep in mind that, while it should be modern competitive to some degree, Im not rich so it's a little bit budget. My goal for this deck was actually to get into modern since Ive never played it before.

The Game Plan

Like I said before, the plan is to punch the opponent into ground before they can stop it. But how do I do this you ask? well , I use my ramp package of:
Arbor Elf
Voyaging Satyr
Nissa, Worldwaker
Overgrowth
Utopia Sprawl
Then use that mana to put down things like:
Blightsteel Colossus
Emrakul, the Aeons Torn
Sylvan Primordial
Worldspine Wurm
Wurmcoil Engine
Or pay the entwine cost for Tooth and Nail, thus getting the true Ideal end game for this deck the Xenagos, God of Revels combo. As you can see, this combo can put out some stupid amounts of power very quickly. I can usually do this anywhere from turn three to turn six or seven at the latest. Thus the name; Agro, because of the speed. And the Agriculture pun because its a ramp style, and thus uses green.

The Combo Show

The combo is Tooth and Nail (entwine payed) to get Xenagos, God of Revels and Emrakul, the Aeons Torn. Emrakul becomes a 30/30 hasted flyer with annihilator 6. Though any of the stomppers will work, I highly suggest getting Emey if you can. The others are really just there as a backup plan.

My Card Choices

The Combo Show

Tooth and Nail - this one is just for fetching the combo cards. Really not much else to say.
Xenagos, God of Revels - Only one because its the absolute definition of a dead draw. I never want to see this card outside of a Tooth and Nail fetch. Yet it gets a slot because there is nothing else that can take its place. At least not that can be done with Toothn Nail.

Land and Ramp Package Show

Forest - Pretty aren't they. But why only 17? Because I only need to see four at most. Any more than that and they're just more cards to get in my way.
Boseiju, Who Shelters All - needles to say, control can be a problem for a combo that relies on only one card. So this is here to try and make my chances of getting Toothn Nail off a little better.
Arbor Elf and Voyaging Satyr - these guys are half of my ramp plan. They untap the enchanted lands that give more than one mana each and float enough of it to cast my expensive things.
Overgrowth and Utopia Sprawl - these two are the enchantments that make my untappers ramp at more that one mana each. Put an Overgrowth and Two Utopia Sprawls on one land and only one untapper gets you ten mana. And that's only one land necessary to get there.

Stompers Show

Blightsteel Colossus - this big bad mama-with-a-shotgun is our response to those pesky life gain decks. Ramp can have problems when it takes two to three turns to kill the opponent once you get your stompers down, and this thing makes all that life they have pointless.
Emrakul, the Aeons Torn - The patron saint of stompy players everywhere. Really not much more to say other than its a castable annihilator 6 flyer with protection from colored spells. OK that actually was quite a bit.
Sylvan Primordial - an absolute value punch. No two ways about it, the only things it wont hit are creatures. But then, why would we want to hit a creature with it when its got that beautifully huge combat body. Plus it gets us a land? Basically just an auto include for green ramp in modern in my opinion.
Worldspine Wurm - well hello there you cutesy wutsy little planet eating wurm of doom. Its a 15/15 with trample. And on top of that its got the Wurmcoil self replacement kind of ability, only this time its three 5/5s with trample.
Wurmcoil Engine - this thing is in all sorts of modern decks, it's got death-touch so it can trade with anything and life-link so it can keep you in the game longer.

Versatility Show

Nissa, Worldwaker - because plains-walkers are ridiculously powerful. It can ramp like nothing else with all my mana making enchantments, it can protect me with 4/4 land creatures, it can win the game with its ult. This card has got it all. Plus it can even extend the game just because people don't want it to stick around. Its like gaining life only with some serious benefits.
Primal Command - speaking of gaining life, seven isn't bad. Plus returning a land or enchantment or what have you to its owners hand can put us ahead pretty quickly. It can also tutor us a creature or undo any mill and get back the important things to be recycled. This is the most versatile card in the deck besides maybe Nissa.
Harmonize - I don't like running out of cards. Do you? Didn't think so. This can refill your hand like nobody's business and dig for those important cards like Toothn Nail.

Things To Keep In Mind

1 - this is a ramp deck. This makes creatures important, so don't run them into counter-spells if you can avoid it. Try to get them to use those up on extra mana enchantments or untappers, and if they refuse to take those use things like Primal Command.
2 - some games just cant be won. If they have too much removal then you just cant do much outside of Emey or Worldspine.
3 - last but not least, the combo is your #1 game plan. Most of the games you win will probably be due to this.

Feedback Pls?

So like I said before Ive never really played in a competitive environment, and have never played modern. I do know a lot of the cards though because I have watched quite a bit. Keep in mind that Im on a budget, that being that I would like to come in under 500. Also since Ive never played modern before I have no idea what my local meta is, so I expect sideboarding to be a little weird at first.

This is a re-build of something I built a wile ago, I switched them out because this one is much better.

Potential Changes Show

So what would you modern experts say about including a sideboard plan for burning out the opponent with Banefire? its uncounterable, and there is no way the opponent can have more health then I have mana on turn six or seven.
