A take on R/G Monsters with a blue splash. Ramp up to your threats and make them monstrous. In this setup, Kiora's Follower is simply for more ramp or early aggression if needed. Kiora, the Crashing Wave can be more ramp, protect herself or the other PWs, and just has a fun ultimate for creature decks. Prophet of Kruphix lets us drop our big fellas quicker when the time comes.

This is a midrange with hopefully enough presence to slow down aggro, but quick enough to apply pressure to control. I am still acquiring some pieces, so my only playtesting has been on here. So any feedback is appreciated if I'm missing something.

Thanks for taking the time to look at my deck, remember to +1 if you like it!

More Threats! — April 1, 2014

Edit

So my playtesting to date has shown me some fun things this deck can do, but unfortunately, I couldn't consistently pull enough threats to keep the pressure on in enough games. So, I pulled Boon Satyr and Kiora's Follower, added another Polukranos, World Eater and mainboarded the two Arbor Colossus and a Clan Defiance. I found the followers weren't often needed for ramp and just weren't enough of a threat. To fill the space in the sideboard, Anger of the Gods. Especially against aggro decks.
