Modern Budget GW (Selesnya) Tokens

IguanaMan


Sideboard


I've wanted to create a token deck for a long time. The Selesnya are not the best guild, but I think they're very fun to play in modern. The populate ability allows you to quickly swarm the field with an arsenal of low starting creatures such as Selesnya Charm and Lingering Souls. These creatures quickly grow into a mass army of Advent of the Wurms. With Intangible Virtue, your creatures become ridiculously powerful.

Token Makers: On turn 1, there isn't much you can do with this deck unfortunately. A Doomed Traveler is about it but it is pretty amazing because it gets a lot more powerful when it dies, especially since you can populate it. On turn 2, you can play a Selesnya Charm for a 2/2 vigilance or a call of the conlave for a 3/3. Turn 3, you can play a Lingering Souls, flashing it back next turn. Then, on turn 4, hopefully you can bring out Advent of the Wurm.

Populating Spells: Wake the Reflections is the classic population spell to make an army. I don't play it in the mainboard because there are better options that have other effects. Druid's Deliverance can save you from having to sacrifice your creatures to block, and Sundering Growth is basic artifact/enchantment removal. Trostani, Selesnya's Voice can also help populate late game.

Other Cards: Intangible Virtue may not seem like a game changing card, but it is. With the vigilance and the combat bonus, it can change your low CMC tokens into very powerful ones. Twilight Drover can help you create armies of fliers every turn. Combine it with Intangible Virtue and you probably win.
