BIG CHANGES AHEAD

I haven' been all too happy with the deck in it's current form, so I decided to completly overwork the deck!

This time around, I tried to focus more on the artifact side, and also on the "I'm finally able to win" side (ie. combos). the deck is now build around some of my favorite cards of all time:

Life from the Loam and The Tabernacle at Pendrell Vale

The addition of Oath of Druids required to cut all the small dudes (which didn't really work together with tabernacle in the first place) and get some cool fatties in.

But who of the 3270 creatures in B/G made the cut?

sadly, the coolest of them all, Emrakul, the Aeons Torn and Griselbrand are banned :'(

What's New?

With Oath of Druids of course comes Forbidden Orchard, which in itself has a really nifty interaction with Glissa, the Traitor: there's always something to die on the other side of the board. This works especially well with Mindslaver, If we have repeatable removal available.

the combos

NOTES

don't mind previous updates

I don't have much experience with Oath of Druids, especially in EDH, so if I'm missing out on essential cards, please tell me!

Suggestions

Updates Add

finally got myself a Damnation!

Damnation > Black Sun's Zenith

Cabal Pit > Buried Ruin I found the ruin underperforming

Coldsteel Heart > Golgari Signet Actually I can't think of a reason why I switched those two. Probably because of Winter Orb? Let me know what you think.

Elves of Deep Shadow & Fyndhorn Elves > Kodama's Reach & Mana Vault getting glissa out turn 2 is good

Executioner's Capsule back in da hood

Grave Titan > Mayor of Avabruck  Flip

Harmonize, Sensei's Divining Top and Scroll Rack in! Probably gonna add more card draw in the future.

Homeward Path & Urborg > Vault of Whispers & Tree of Tales sure there are good interactions with glissa and say Smokestack, but the downside with Nevinyrral's Disk and pernicous deed are overwhelming IMO.

Sword of Fire and Ice > Lightning Greaves if I want to be more on the voltron side, sword is better

Jester's Cap & Pithing Needle > Sphere of Resistance & Torpor Orb The Cap I have yet to test, but the orbs where underperforming as of late.

Putrefy > Pox This may as well be a Abrupt Decay, The lack of two drops might say yes though

Regrowth > Crop Rotation? I know they don't fit the same role, but hey.

out: Karn Liberated: I really like him and miss him already, but what to replace him with?

Batterskull: Sword of Fire and Ice is better IMO.

Acidic Slime: the body is not worth the 2 extra mana in my deck

Ensnaring Bridge: Good card, definitly stays in the maybe board. Executioner's Capsule fits better in the deck
