This is just a fairly basic G/W aggro deck that i really enjoy playing and has done me well so far.

At first it may seem like this deck has a bit of a strange curve with essentially having 4 different 3 drops, but it actually works quite well because Boon Satyr can be used for bestow on turn 5, Banisher Priest is used whenever I need to get rid of a creature and Ajani, Caller of the Pride is a good finisher. The 3 Banisher Priest are actually a key part of this deck because when I first made this deck I was playing Loxodon Smiter in that slot but I soon realised that I needed more removal to let my creatures through. At first I was also playing 4 Soldier of the Pantheon instead of the 3 Brimaz, King of Oreskos but I really didn't like the amount of 1 drops that i pulled late game so i replaced them with 3 Brimaz, King of Oreskos and an extra land. I chose to main deck 3 Mistcutter Hydra because they are really useful late game as a finisher or just to get some extra damage in and they are also really good against blue decks. Selesnya Charm deals with anything big or can just make a 2/2 vigilance. rootborn defences is a really nice combat trick against other creatures and also helps somewhat against heavy removal decks like Mono Black and sometimes you can get a lot of value out of it if you have a wurm in play. I think the addition of Temple of Plenty and Brimaz, King of Oreskos from Born of the Gods will really aid this deck especially the Temple seeming as scry is so powerful.

For sideboarding i like to side in Unflinching Courage against decks with no removal, the extra Mistcutter Hydra for any deck that plays blue, the Glare of Heresy are for any deck playing white as it gets rid of Elspeth, Sun's Champion and Detention Sphere, Last Breath helps against decks with small creatures and the extra Banisher Priest is for creature heavy decks.

I think this deck's biggest weakness is Esper Control since they can just use black's removal to get rid of the Mistcutter Hydra but apart from that I think this deck is pretty good all around.

Any help with this deck would be appreciated especially for the sideboard as some of the cards never end up seeing any play and I am fairly new to Magic.

P.S. I don't have the money for Voice of Resurgence but if I did I would probably play them instead of Call of the Conclave.
