Thank you, yeaGO!!
I didn't close a bracket so it didn't let me view the thing at all? Weird.
Umm, could you also delete deck:x-marks-the-junk? It's basically a copy of this deck and was having the same problem.

I would remove the card:Trostani, Selesnya's Voice in order to put in a card like Essence Harvest . The Trostani can be hard to cast if mana doesn't want to play with you and the harvest takes better advantage of your building of creatures, rather than your summoning.

@ Drakrhal
I actually really like that idea. You're absolutely right that card:Trostani, Selesnya's Voice is hard to cast in this deck, and she has less use now that I took out the Slime Molding . Additionally, Essence Harvest can take out a massive chunk of my opponent's life even before (or immediately after) I attack. It would be especially helpful in those games where a Vampire Nighthawk or the like is managing to check my Primordial Hydra .

I could see this becoming the standard for a G/B/W archetype. I would suggest looking at pit fight or bioshift as ways of providing extra combat tricks.

@ Nerdcore
I would love to see that happen! Unfortunately I probably won't have the money to build a paper copy of this before Innistrad rotates out. -_-; But if you or someone else wants to pilot it through an FNM, I'd love to hear how you do.

Kk. If I have the cash to pick up the u/w lands I'll see what I can do.

Favorite Solitaire (Basic Playtest) thus far:
T1: Forest, card:Avacyn's Pilgrim
T2: Temple Garden (tapped), Gyre Sage
T3: Overgrown Tomb (untapped), Corpsejack Menace (Gyre Sage evolves twice)
T4: Gavony Township , Primordial Hydra (X=5, enters as a 10/10, evolves Gyre Sage twice)
T5: Swing with 30/30 Primordial Hydra .
I've also had Abrupt Decay and Mikaeus, the Lunarch in my hand the whole time, which would have been used to deal with disruptions or as a backup should something happen to my Hydra.

Complex in design, simple in play/power. Great deck. I built a "counters" deck as well; but I fear yours is far superior. +1

That certainly doesn't mean your ideas were bad. What kind of thought process or approach did you take with your deck?

I'm considering taking out Rootborn Defenses and replacing it with Glaring Spotlight . The spotlight would do a better job of protecting my creatures against targeted removal. It does not help me in the case of Supreme Verdict , but I can just play around it like I am already doing for cards like Terminus and Mutilate .
What do you guys think?

Isn't Death Wind way more versatile than Killing Glare ? It can get rid of regenerating and indestructible creatures and can even reduce a creature's P/T so you can block it to death when you don't have enough mana to kill it outright.

Indeed it is, RussischerZar. I had forgotten about Death Wind , thanks!

Looks like you're headed in the right direction of where you want to be. I wish I had some suggestions for you. Really great deck.

Witchbane Orb is replacing Silklash Spider in the sideboard.
I really don't know why I didn't think of this before...
