Instead of card:Ranger's Guile I'd add 2 more Giant Growth . Nothing beats getting a 1/1 creature through then slamming that down to do 4 damage. Also, I really like Deadbridge Goliath in here. He will give you a lot of value throughout the game with his scavenge ability.

I want to run card:Ranger's Guile because a) I will need the hexproof for spot removal and b) you would be surprised how often that extra +1/+1 can win games xD

I really want to get my hands on about 2 Garruk, Primal Hunter s because I feel he is what this deck is missing

Just playtested this as -2 Fog -2 Oak Street Innkeeper +2 Garruk, Primal Hunter +2 Revenge of the Hunted and it performed stupid well lol, a 9/9 Trample Beast Token that must be blocked, clearing the way for everything else, is just nuts

I think those changes you are making are very good! I say add two more Giant Growth for getting combat damage through.

noticed i have Moldgraf Monstrosity , Creeping Renaissance , and Elder of Laurels and was wondering if any of them might have a spot here xD

Panda213 says... #19

Elder of Laurels is great if you have extra mana each turn :) otherwise he takes up space for better three drops like Champion of Lambholt or Wild Beastmaster

November 13, 2012 8:28 p.m.

strateupjee says... #20

I have a shit ton of extra mana each turn lol, its a ramp deck, ima look up the ruling on him and see if I can cast that twice, cuz if so... oh man... and if it can be used as an instant he is going in without a doubt, swing a 1/1 and as soon as he gets through pay 8 mana for like +10/+10, you bet your ass he is MVP lol

strateupjee says... #21

Elder is go!

I keep finding sweet cards for this deck lol, Slime Molding for a late game mana dump? xD

If you're running green in standard: you should be running Rancor . 1 mana for +2 and trample and it comes back in almost all cases. It's certainly a much better pick than Fog .

Fog is a classic trap card. Yes, it will win you some games when you negate their all-in swing and then swing back for lethal, but if you looked at 100 games it's mostly going to sit in your hand taking up space for cards that interact with what the deck wants to do to win.

Seeing as you're mono-green and looking to stack tokens on creatures, Predator Ooze makes a great token carrier that doesn't die to most black removal. Primordial Hydra is another great green mana sink.

1) Don't have any Rancor s and have literally 0 dollars to buy them until a buddy gets me some money he owes me xD

2) I LOVE Fog just because I have no removal lol, when they swamp the board, or have things like Geist of Saint Traft as a 12/8 flying first strike trample (which did happen to me xD) I had 2 fogs in my hand and they saved my freakin ass man

3) On the Predator Ooze /Primordial Hydra side, I really regret trading my oozes away, and I dont own any hydras lol

Panda213 says... #25

I've got a couple of hydras and some garruks laying around...
