Drop card:Heroes' Reunion, much better things you could be playing for the same cost, like Call of the Conclave that will do more to help your deck.

Never mind, didn't see Call of the Conclave already in there. I'd still suggest replacing card:Heroes' Reunion though. Rancor can be devastating if you throw it on Wayfaring Temple

I'll definitely consider it. I know the deck lacks in terms of dealing with flying creatures so 7 life for 2 mana seemed like a big plus to me.

Like this deck and the play style. Try dropping Sundering Growth for Rootborn Defenses Sideboard the Sundering Growth . I would try to make space for Lingering Souls since that's your only answer to flyers.

I took your advice on moving Sundering Growth to sideboard for Rootborn Defenses (I knew i was forgetting an important populate card). As for the flyer issue I did add in Seller of Songbirds as it is the same cost as Lingering Souls and gives me a flying token to start populating. Another option would be the Eyes in the Skies as I get the 1/1 flyer but if I had better token out I could populate them. I just don't like the mana cost of Eyes in the Skies .

I understand how you feel about the mana cost. But it makes your opponent think twice whether or not you have something to cast in hand, seeing that it's an instant. Helps from time to time.

One more thing. Why Selesnya Guildgate and not Temple Garden ?
December 6, 2012 8:39 p.m.
Maybe Midnight Haunting instead of Seller of Songbirds . You'll get more populate targets and the instant speed works great with Wayfaring Temple .
December 6, 2012 9:24 p.m.
Switched up some of the lands and removed Seller of Songbirds for Midnight Haunting . Also, added Slime Molding to the creature repertoire as it scales in the game and you can populate it.

Another possibility would be Geist-Honored Monk . Generates some flyers for you to populate and has vigilance.

What about Phantom General ? It would help make some of your 1/1 spirits a little stronger and more intimidating. Don't know how well it plays with your deck speed, but it would definitely add some strength to most your creatures.

StormZing I have considered Phantom General multiple times but I get the same effect + vigilance with Intangible Virtue for 2 cmc less. Added to this that he himself is not a token just makes it hard for me to find a reason to put him in.
April 22, 2013 5:19 p.m.
psychoza well I understand, I just figured that mana didn't look to be an issue, and with the two stacking it could get out of hand very quickly. But I suppose you could get two Intangible Virtue for the price of one Phantom General

I personally am not a fan of Wayfaring Temple , but to each his own. Also, what about considering Increasing Devotion ?

Spazik008 I have been considering removing the Wayfaring Temple as every time I get it out it just sits there. I added Rancor as a way to try and get it to punch through and populate but again, it just never seems to happen. I will consider adding a copy or two of Increasing Devotion as it never occurred to me with an Intangible Virtue out that's 5x 2/2s with vigilance. Thanks for the suggestion!

Have you been using Wake the Reflections ? I've been kicking around putting it in my deck - sometimes I just want to populate and can't wait around to use Rootborn Defenses . Plus it's cheaper. I'm curious if it's been working for you.

@Copaland I used to have it in the deck but I never got to playtest it. I have now revamped the deck entirely and that was one of the cards that didn't make the cut. I'm sorry I can't give you any more feedback on it. :-(
May 22, 2013 7:50 a.m.
have you considered Cathars' Crusade ? whenever you play anything everyone gets stronger..... like increasing devotion +5/+5 to every creature including the humans that are just played. can't think of what I would take out though
May 23, 2013 1:05 p.m.
sabba5600, that's not a bad idea. Cards I might take out are Armada Wurm and Obzedat, Ghost Council . I'll keep this in consideration when I'm testing the deck out. I just revamped it the other night and have yet to get any playtime.
