I'd drop one of your sets of mana dorks for Viridian EmissaryMTG Card: Viridian Emissary. He's a better chump blocker and gets you permanent mana ramp, which is strictly better than a mana dork.

That will give you something worth giving deathtouch.

splash black for a tutor imo, your deck is so based on mana ramp and such few damaging creatures, that you are solely banking on drawing a surge for a win, and if you do, you will obviously win because you can mill out your deck and 1 shot for 200+ damage, however, if you dont draw one, its a for sure loss, also, this deck is extremely susceptible to a quick flyer/token deck, throw day of judgment in, and avacyn angel of hopes, just my two cents.

Thanks for the feed back guys. I took out the Llanowar ElvesMTG Card: Llanowar Elves for Viridian EmissaryMTG Card: Viridian Emissary. I do feel that you have a point Razor, I'm wondering if less mana ramp is needed and maybe a few more big creatures. I don't know about tutors considering they are more sorceries to stop surge as well as cost two black. I think I'll sideboard some days, but again trying to keep low on sorceries.

I'd drop 1-2 Sigarda, Host of Herons because if you pick up two with your surge they die thanks to the legend rule.

I have plenty of white mana with 4 card:Avacyn's Pilgrim and 4 Birds of Paradise . The other thing is Primal Surge takes any color creature out. You were right about Sigarda, gravemole. I didn't think about that. I've removed 1x Sigarda, Host of Herons for 1x Rites of Flourishing .

Magic Rule #836: Never rely on mana-dorks alone to supply you with a specific color for spells in your deck.

Well maybe ill try adding a few plains, or dual lands and see how it works, but the main way of getting them out is primal surge itself.

Removed x2 Nightshade Peddler for x2 Plains . The main use of these plains will be getting them through Viridian Emissary .

Although it would be nice with Dungrove Elder I think I'm OK for mana with 10 mana dorks.

Then might I suggest Llanowar Elves also, they are just a great card in a green deck, especially for doing things like getting a card with cmc of 3 on turn 2, messes everyone up :)

Yes Arbor Elf are the post rotation Llanowar Elves so I decided to stick those in for when the time comes. Birds of Paradise also allow me to accomplish the same task. Btw Thank for all the feedback :D

Very true, good idea haha, didn't even think about that. Sadly Birds are rotating out haha, which makes everyone with a green deck sad, do you have a replacement in mind? also might I ask why only one Acidic Slime ?

Also I'd suggest adding card:Green Sun's Zenith just because you have high cost cards and it is a great "go-get-em" card
