The Whisperwood Experiment

Standard* Budget GU (Simic) Ramp

Oshawartist


Sideboard


YOU'LL HERE IT HERE FIRST!!! THIS CARD IS AMAZING AND I'M NOT GOING TO LET ANYONE TELL ME IT'S NOT!!! I REPEAT!!! YOU HEARD IT HERE FIRST!!!

Well... I have no idea what kind of deck it will create but it'll make something up, so I just took this card, gave it a shell and going to send it on it's way! I really think this card is amazing, and it's been a long time since I got to see Mr. Master of the Wild Hunt again. He was one of my all time favorite cards and what made me love the color green. I started with green, and I will stay green until the very end... even if it get's f***ed up by other colors to make sidisi whip (my current standard deck) or temur... I will always love green. So then, lets start with some awkward cards I put in here for the hell of it!

  • Trail of Mystery - Pretty much changes the perception of this deck, into making Trail of Mystery + Whisperwood Elemental a synergy that not only allows you to keep a land going each turn, but also thins your deck into oblivion!

  • Secret Plans - Basically the main reason I'm running blue in this deck. I may cut it later but for the time being it also combos with Whisperwood Elemental into not only a possible draw engine, but also allows Whisperwood Elemental to create 2/3's each turn. Might seem subtle, but a little change in curve can mean a whole lot.

  • Rattleclaw Mystic - Just one of the few morphs I thought of putting in here, but mainly for the fact of being possibly manifested and giving a boost in mana very easily. Mainly ignore the fact it give red, the reason I run this over Sylvan Caryatid is because it can be a morph and caryatid cannot.

  • Sagu Mauler - Whoa! Another reason to run blue! Whoa! And it can be morphed/manifested and stuff! Whoa! Welcome back to standard buddy! I missed you!

  • Hooded Hydra - Rather good either way if it gets manifested or played right out of the gate, a real main stay for a deck like this!

Sideboard Tech!!! :

  • Yasova Dragonclaw - Against aggressive decks such as: mono-red, jeskai agro, mardu (if not agro I don't know what is), or even Abzahn agro... I've seen it. If using Yasova, take out some of your late game ramp, such as trail, or prophet for against agro those are way too slow.

  • Yisan Chord - Quite the good counter to control, and it fits right into the deck as well because of this deck's curve. Also good combo with Kiora's Follower. Usually you'll want to go in this order. Elvish Mysic , Kiora's Follower , Courser of Kruphix (add through side-board) , Skip 4-drop but untap again with Follower (or add polukranos, idc) , then Prophet of Kruphix / Whisperwood Elemental. I do need help on how I can get Yisan to work here, so please tell me in the comments. If adding Yisan, take out Icefeather Avens. Also add the coursers for complete curve if you so wish.

  • Courser of Kruphix - Mainboard? You're choice. If you do, please tell me how it works out, I feel most of the cards in the main borad are essential but do tell me if this way works. If add courser, please use the guide given for Yisan as well for courser is best suited for against control match ups as it's bait for removal ;)

  • Disdainful Stroke - Yeah, you guessed it, it's for f***in abzhan... If using this, take out anything you saw not work, or late game.

There is more to come for this deck, and I hope you all help in in any improvements I need to make. Just please keep an open mind when it comes to stuff like Secret Plans and Trail of Mystery. Just because those cards are "bad" on there own, I want you to understand that cards like those are some of the most fun I have brewing with, so don't ditch them right away unless you have a reason and a different solution to them. I will know if you didn't read this or not ;)
