I made my brother a gorilla deck and I'm genuinely afraid he's gonna dunk on me with this. To make up for the lack of tribal support for these creature types, I decided to go full Planet of the Apes and give them weapons. There's also some cool tricks involving utility lands. Any recommendations within budget range would be greatly appreciated.

1. Sylvan Scrying acts as a pseudo-tutor for various effects like creature boosting, life gain, and digs deeper into your deck. Oran-Rief, the Vastwood, Sapsee Forest, and Memorial to Unity respectively.

2. Dropping Gorilla Titan in turn five, then feeding the banana peels rotting in your graveyard to the Hooting Mandrills to activate Gorilla Titan's ability.

3. Blossoming Defense puts the Reject in "Reject humanity, return to monkey."

4. Ancient Stirrings can be used to grab weapons for our monkeys and grab any of our various utility lands as well if Sylvan Scrying calls in sick that game.
