Pendelhaven Elder is a cheap way of giving all your squirrels some extra body until your are able to combo. The elder can also save itself and all your squirrels from an early Pyroclasm type effect.

Or a Scouring Sands . Or an Electrickery . Or an Illness in the Ranks . Or anything that deals one+ damage to each creature.

I tried to use a Pendelhaven Elder for a bit, but she just never really made the cut, her ability to boost all my 1/1 is really strong tho' and also even boosts most of my squirrel loving creatures, but yeah, I just find her extremely ugly as well. xD

i would try out my infection deck i will take this out before it had a chance to get going

kcajattack: Well infect decks have to be fast to be good, and this deck surely isn't fast at all, it is a themed casual deck after all, so it doesn't really stand a chance against fast competetive decks c:

I luvz!

I really love this deck. It plays fast enough, And has an early infinite combo ready to go. The only thing I'd add, personally, is a few Vitalize s, just to have a few million squirrels suddenly untap, ready to stare down the scariest hydras, giants and dragons. But, just my own opinion, and it doesn't really need it.

Sezar: I actually used to have that card in my deck in the earlier stages, tho' I ended up taking it out as the whole untapping all the squirrels really wasn't that big of a need, tho' it can save your ass if you suddenly get flooded and you only have one creature left which isn't tapped.

And if anything, it's almost like a High Tide with a Earthcraft in play, which is pretty cool c:

This is the best deck OF ALL TIME!

Maybe a Seedborn Muse would work in this deck to keep all them little squirrels untapped to wreak havoc?

LudwigVanBeathaven: It's a nice idea, but you can always decide to make the army of squirrels just before your turn, so you can hit the opponent in the face right away. The untapping worn't do much but leave 'em ready to block stuff, which is of course still good, but I don't really think it's worth it.

True, true.

The only other idea for untapping would be Intruder Alarm , but you would have to splash blue for that (and there I would go put in lots of counterspells and other stuff to hinder your opponent until it's your turn, but that's just me!).

I think the deck is fun and good the way it is!

It makes me want to scream "Go for the eyes, Boo!"

Beautiful deck, squirrels done right! I gave a +1 so please leave my nuts alone :P

+1 for the Squirrel Walker. Im setting up a build with a friend that uses Sterling Grove , Enlightened Tutor , Exploration , and Idyllic Tutor . Added white to help search for combo pieces and if you have the pieces then Sterling Grove can protect the combo so your opponent can't stop you.

SwiftDeath: Thanks mate~ I've been trying to work something like that as well, for a while have I tried to make a squirrel cycle, decks which includes squirrels and one different color for each deck, but I'm currently completely stuck with it, so yeah.

Quest for Renewal to untap your copies of Arbor Elf which let you untap your Squirrel Nest ? Perhaps a couple Krosan Restorer ?

Both those two cards will be way to slow, Quest for Renewal worn't be doing much for the deck and Krosan Restorer costs to much to be effective and Threshold worn't be activated much in this deck, the whole Threshold thing is something you should build around if anything c:

I've been playing since 1994, and this is the single awesomest novelty deck idea I think I've even heard of, let alone believed could actually work. Lolz for days! +1

INFRAL! THEY ARE REPRINTING Squirrel Nest IN THE NEW SET! AND THE FLAVOR TEXT IS AWESOME! http://mythicspoiler.com/cpy/cards/squirrelnest.html

Squirrels will be back! OH MAAH GOOOSHHH!!! I better get a bunch of tokens then. a shitload of tokens that is!

I love this deck, partly because I thought my friend was crazy for buying a bunch of squirrel tokens and I like being proven wrong. +1

Aie, I'm gonna buy a bunch of squirrel tokens too when Conspiracy is out, cause most of the tokens you can buy at moment is rather expensive~

MaRo would be so proud :')

Hehe I wish, would make me a happy Lord of the Squirrels if he would approve this deck.

Can you point out the infinite combo to me? I feel silly not seeing it
