Themed around Cartography, one of my favorite subjects. :) Big shout-out to KingKilvas for his help with this deck! Idea is to get your lands out as fast as possible, while using other cards like Retreat to Kazandu to get +1/+1 counters on your creatures, and then render them unblockable by various means and swing hard. Other plays are using Courser of Kruphix, Verge Rangers and Wizened Snitches to keep your deck revealed, and using cards like Selvala, Explorer Returned, Druidic Satchel, and Path of Discovery to use your knowledge of what's ahead to your advantage. Win-cons are using Roon of the Hidden Realm to re-use Avenger of Zendikar to amass tokens and swing wide, stacking counters on Roon and bashing through with trample damage, or Sylvan Awakening Main combos are Cartographer + Grove of the Guardian Selvala, Explorer Returned + Wizened Snitches Courser of Kruphix + Druidic Satchel Retreat to Kazandu + Trade Routes Avenger of Zendikar + Roon of the Hidden Realm Curious Obsession + Traveler's Cloak Tamiyo's Journal + Tireless Tracker Cenn's Tactician + Gavony Township
