Of 32 creatures about 11 have the ability to swing over 2. I think a little less ramp, and a little more damage dealers might be good. since mono green has no real way to dig through your deck, one more into the wilds might be good. This at least can help get rid of lands from your draws to allow more creatures to be played.

So I'm having to budget a little until I get the last few pieces for this deck. Right now I'm thinking of running Varolz, the Scar-Striped , Jarad's Orders , and Commune with the Gods until I get those last couple cards. Thoughts?

That seems like it would do a lot better, because card advantage is very important.

Why not run more shrines? It seems like you could get some serious usage off of it.

Nice ideas for card advantage. I threw together a green stompy deck and only had 3x Garruk, Caller of Beasts to help with that and was really looking for solutions.

What do you think of Skarrg Goliath ? I ran across him when looking for stompy cards. Also how about Colossus of Akros ? I mean by the time you want to drop a stompy, you don't care about more green devotion and this guy is indestructible and can't be hit by that son of a bitch Tidebinder Mage ...

Been playing this deck for awhile and as long as I'm not playing against someone who knows what's coming and not against burn there's just no way in hell I'm losing. I saw that you were talking to someone about using Clan Defiance and I can confirm that this works just fine. It CAN become a dead card which can really hurt in a deck like this but the look on your opponents face when you smash them for 40 damage is just priceless. I actually ran 4x Temple of Abandon to make sure I had a red source and to be able to scry to avoid more lands or to be able to ship mana dorks when I had enough. I tried experimenting with Prophet of Kruphix but the splash hurt more than it did good so I went with the mono-green (+ Clan Defiance ) and that's what I'm still running. +1 (why can I only upvote once? :(((( )

corythackston-As of right now, I don't have any Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx 's, so my current goal is 1. I'll eventually bring it to 2 when I get the 2nd one.

Apoptosis-Skarrg Goliath is certainly playable in this deck, but more often than not he is going to be used as a bloodrush finisher, like swinging with an Elvish Mystic and turning 1 into 10. I personally am not a big fan of Colossus of Akros and while he does dodge the Tidebinder Mage , I have different solutions that are better then him like Time to Feed , Ratchet Bomb , and even Mistcutter Hydra .

Rochard-Thanks! I will probably get around to getting 1 or 2 Temple of Abandon s for this deck to make the play consistency better. I've had a lot of people suggest Prophet of Kruphix to me. It seems like it would be great, but it is stil another color to splash, I have no way to boost to it to save it from a simple Lightning Strike , and it can be an awkward cost even with the ramp, because on turn 4 I'm going to want to hit an Arbor Colossus or a big Mistcutter Hydra or even Garruk, Caller of Beasts . I think Prophet is a great card, I just don't think I have room for her in this deck.
