This deck aims to make use of the enormous mana you get via devotion to Green, to ramp into Hornet Queen and also Hornet Nest to provide early protection. Combined with Purphoros, God of the Forge, you get lots of stinging deathtouch bees that also deals 2 damage when they enter the battlefield. Bzzzz indeed.

You can tutor the components via Chord of Calling or with Domri Rate. The planeswalker can also force a fight between your nest with an opponent's high-power creatures to spawn even more bees.

I am currently in dilemma over whether to include Nissa, Worldwaker or Garruk, Caller of Beasts, don't think I have space to include both.

Let me know what you guys think, any help/feedback is appreciated!
