A "green stompy" deck made bant to access better/more synergistic removal and a few fun pieces. Fueled by Nissa, Voice of Zendikar to a degree, this isn't a usual +1/+1 deck.

Avatar of the Resolute Voted most likely to abuse new nissa's -2 harder than any other 2 drop....well except for maybe...

Zameck Guildmage Handy guy, in a deck like this gives instant speed draw on the fly...makes incoming cards bigger and can make a handy Kitchen Finks combo (+1/+1 counter negates a -1/-1 counter...resetting KF's worth)

Scavenging Ooze always a wonderful add in any green deck (stompy/utility/bear...what more do you need?)...downright ridiculous if Hardened Scales happens to be out.

Birds of Paradise atm I'm very much enjoying the acceleration (and removal bait) that is "burd." Tempted to run Cloudfin Raptor if my local meta changes. CF stacks harder with the plentiful +1/+1 counters, but since 1 drops tend to just get bolted and BoP is a better late game topdeck...likely to remain a fun idea.

Master Biomancer one of my all time favorite mythics, I think he finds a niche home in a deck like this because he curves out when its a pseudo topdeck war...and he makes every topdeck that much more scary, let alone if Hardened Scales, Vorel of the Hull Clade, and/or Nissa, Voice of Zendikar shows up.

Kitchen Finks Combos quite well with the deck....I can give it counters to no end without fear of it losing its persist utility (except for graveyard hate of course). The possibility of a life gain engine/stall while I draw cards is too good to pass up.

Sigarda, Host of Herons big mama herself, the bane of most magic players...she just hits and wins unless countered or wiped.

Nissa, Voice of Zendikar A solid counter engine, decent + ability that can combo with Zameck Guildmage..fits the slot quite nicely.

Hardened Scales utilized here quite well because of all the instances of counter gain!

Dromoka's Command Half the reason I splashed white! Super utility, gives counters, etc.

Path to Exile I needed some solid removal that UG just didn't provide, and land grab in a pinch.

Ojutai's Command Strict worth!

Sideboard (alt strategy)

Gideon, Champion of Justice + Vorel of the Hull Clade makes games fun...and rather short if they sideboarded in against creatre heavy decks.

Mana Leak to support the alt strategy, counterspells save lives.

Krosan Grip for those pesky Ensnaring Bridge, Chalice of the Void, etc.

Voidslime solid, silly counterspell.

Scute Mob In a slower game, these guys are hilarious. The most likely to be replaced in my SB, but when im making a deck of my favorite bant cards....gotta at least try getting them in the 75.
