I'd have to agree with Kirbuigi on this one . Triplicate Spirits is just to high costing, plus I am trying to focus on only using cards that give me higher power creatures. Thanks for the suggestions though 13toZEN

i would drop the Entreat the Angels because they could be dead weight early game and i would replace them with another charm and your choice of a Druid's Deliverance or voice and i would switch out the Garruk Wildspeaker for a Garruk, Primal Hunter. also i am so glad i looked at this because i had an open slot in my deck similar to this and the use of Path to Exile in this deck helped a lot!

I agree with you on the fact that the Entreat the Angels could be a dead draw early on in the game, the main reason I keep it in is because when I do play it, it's usually for its miracle cost and it wins the game for me but I see what you're saying it could be more of a hinderence then a help, I may replace them. As for the Garruk switch around, I may have to consider it. Although Primal Hunter costs more, it's abilities are more useful. He gives you a way to draw and place down a token, and this deck could really use the extra draw power in the late game. Thanks for the advise sane1177

you dont have card draw maybe Slate of Ancestry, Collective Unconscious or Harmonize. how about Explore to speed you up without losing card advantage.

How about Call of the Herd instead of Call of the Conclave due to the flashback it will net you more tokens of same power and toughness.

What about using Wheel of sun and moon?

OK, you know you said you wanted me to let you know what changes I made? Here's my final version of the deck:

http://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/15-07-15-modern-green-white-tokens/

LAND:

I removed Gavony Township, as I found that mana fixing was generally more important than being able to add +1/+1 tokens, and that I generally didn't have spare turns anyway.

I also removed Horizon Canopy, and added more windswept heath and Temple Garden, because I can afford to spend a bit on a modern deck, but not THAT much!

Enchantments:

With druid's deliverance and the sheer number of tokens this deck produces, blockers aren't so much of a problem, so I removed Intangible Virtue and added another Parallel Lives.

Sorceries:

Call of the Conclave isn't that good, so I decided, for the same mana cost, to replace it all with Voice of Resurgence instead, because even if you have to play more than one and start sac'ing, that just gets tokens out more quickly!

I also noticed that this deck had nothing to deal with fliers, so I added 3 Spectral Procession to allow it to block fliers and do some flying damage of its own.

Instants:

Advent of the Wurm is good, but I didn't want to skew the mana costs too high by running 4 of them, so I reduced them to 2.

I removed one Selesnya Charm and added another Druid's Deliverance and Rootborn Defenses, because those cards can literally be game-savers.

Creatures:

I noticed that this deck gets wiped by All Is Dust, or any eldrazi decks in general, so I added Sigarda, Host of Herons. Even though she seems like sideboard material, I keep her in the maindeck and not the sideboard because a 5/5 hexproof flier for 5 is not to be sniffed out, but she's one of the first cards I switch if I have to sideboard.

Sideboard:

Your original sideboard was generally excellent, but I thought that Spellskite was generally more useful than Thrun, the Last Troll, plus I found that keeping the mana on hand to be able to regenerate thrun slowed me down.

Overall, I really liked your original deck, but I also think my changes have made it stronger and more versatile.

P.S.: Also, I replaced Creeping Corrosion with Krosan Grip, because it can't be countered as easily, deals with enchantments as well, and because if I have Spellskite, Torpor Orb or Grafdigger's Cage on the battlefield, I don't want to destroy them too.

Entreat the Angels is a great card... when it works. I would leave just one of it into the deck.

I would add another Voice of Resurgence as this card have the psychological effect of being unblockable or hold the attack from someone that would aboid at any cost to have a huge elemental on the other side of the battleground.

For defense against flyers i would run Midnight Haunting its works pretty good as response to wipes cuz it's a instant card. And have great sinergy with Parallel Lives and Intangible Virtue.Just try to avoid any soccery. This deck must be fast and have response to board sweeping.

The difference between this deck and the one that i played back in innistrad/ravnica days is, as i've mentioned before, Path to Exile. This card is the one that would change everything in the format. It would deal with Huntmaster of the Fells  Flip, Falkenrath Aristocrat, Olivia Voldaren...

I already gave my upvote many months ago. This deck is still awesome. I would change it a little but i like your adaptation.

I really like this deck, tokens have always been my favorite. I've got my own G/W token deck up, if you'd like to throw some advice at it that would be awesome :D (by the way, Elderscale Wurm works beautifully to keep your tokens up. You don't have to worry about using them to defend, so it frees them up for relentless hits with giant swarms of creatures.)

Was interested in a deck with the new Nissa coming out. As well as the new Gideon. What's your reasoning behind the Entreats...?

kingalvin says... #12

Well Mr.Mirage the reason I have Entreat the Angels in my deck is mainly because I thought that having it to use against my opponents fliers would be beneficial, plus, whenever I play it off the draw it is usually gg next turn. If I can find a different card that produces fliers but is more reliable, that would be great.

Mr.Mirage says... #13

Well, with tokens you really don't NEED huge fliers to be lethal. Spectral Procession would work just fine. If you're stuck on angels you could try Luminarch Ascension... I'm playing with a deck for selesnya tokens right now tweaking it with the new Gideon and the Nissa coming out and a Garruk. Against playtesting though yours' tramps mine hard. Hey will you check out my Miracle list while we're talking about Entreat the Angels? I'd like some constructive feedback on it. Modern Miracles: Ebb & Flow

For card draw, I'd add Mentor of the Meek. I also love to run Cryptolith Rite. I'd run them in place of Birds of Paradise.

Hi, i must say this is awesome deck for modern, and what about adding some Second Harvest from new SoI?

Westvale Abbey  Flip? If you can get 5 1/1s you are set.

Hey just found this deck and was wondering if you still play it/how it's working out for you. That being said I just wanted to suggest Secure the Wastes, Gideon, Ally of Zendikar, Nissa, Voice of Zendikar, and Brimaz, King of Oreskos/Hero of Bladehold, and maybe even Wilt-Leaf Liege and just see what you think of them. Thanks a bunch if you even see this and respond! 3 years is a very long time hahaha.

Kale64 says... #18

Oh and Hanweir Militia Captain  Flip since it can flip pretty easily and then becomes a Voice of Resurgence token that helps you every turn it survives.

dude where is your dirty midnight guard + presence of gond combo

Moonsilver spear I think it's called is a good way for flyer tokens as it puts a 4/4 flying angel in play Everytime the equipped creature attacks
