I like it, and in many ways more elegant than my Green Mana Dump

Clicked a Sacrifice Onion

Why not Reverent Hunter?

calias Thanks! Any quuestions that may arise, feel free to ask!
Ihazadeck Not really... it is up to you and the metagame you are in. I personally, try to design my decks to be all around, and avoid the pesky use of sideboards :D
Floppo10 Because hes a powerhouse, yes, but only works if all the other things are already working. Maybe having 1 or 2 could be of use... to be searched by Green Sun's Zenith

Why Dryad Arbor? Why not Nykthos?

Busse says... #10

CavalryWolfPack Hell yeah there are lots of them.

AmericanTitan I can fetch her with the Zenith, and because I haven't found a Nykthos yet... I might add one. In any case, I produce enough mana as this is, I don't need truckloads of it :D
But I will test it anyways. A last year it was too expensive so I did not buy it.
Cheers people!

Would fetch lands make this deck better/faster? Genuine question, since I have 4 Windswept Heaths that I could use.

April 6, 2016 6:36 a.m.

Absolutely

Busse says... #13

Yeah, for sure. I dont have any of those fetch lands so the testing is up to you. They could work but since you need forests for some itemsf of the list, I would not use more than 4 fetch lands

April 7, 2016 9:34 a.m.

so, not that this doesn't look fun but why not just play elves? instead of dealing 38 damage by turn 4 you could be dealing 500+ damage on turn 2...

April 10, 2016 3:53 a.m.

Busse says... #15

Because there are already elves in my group, I do not like to play elves and because this deck is one of a kind (in card selection).
And because dealing 500 in turn 2 ends up in people saying: "You gonna use that shit again?! Meh"

But mostly, cuz I don't like elves :D

Outstanding combo! Since I'm running a budget version of your deck and only have one Khalni Hydra, do you have any advice for possible replacements - e.g. something under $5/card that is also a finisher?

Busse says... #17

Primordial Hydra is a bomb with these deck, but then you may want to add a couple of Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx. Hydra+Lightning Greaves is a dreadful thing.
Terra Stomper used to work good as a mega budget option. Reverent Hunter might be interesting to use the devotion, and also works with the Avatar of the Resolute.
When I get to my laptop I'll see more appropriate options.
Cheers! Report back if you find budget replacements!

Jesus Christ, this deck and the comments are just a mess and I like it-

April 13, 2016 9:34 a.m.

Busse says... #19

RubyOrzhov please elaborate ?

And yes, the comments need some cleaning. Will do that soon.
Cheers

Elaboration: The comments are a roller-coaster from start to end; they just escalate the further down you go. As for the deck, it looks janky at first. But when you read the description, everything clicks in and the deck becomes a time bomb. The deck appears uncoordinated, but is actually a procedure in a well-oiled machine. I enjoy decks like this, so I thank you for blessing us with this monstrosity.

YOU BETTER GET AN ONION!!!!!

FierceTierce says... #22

Cause I really like this deck. Some changes I would make, but it appears it's at where you want it.

April 20, 2016 5:25 p.m.

I clicked the onion button, but please leave it unsacrificed so i can feel less terrible. Just set it free and let it sprout. For this deck, Mistcutter Hydra is just badass against control.

What do you think of Chancellor of the Tangle?

Isn't Nylea God of the Hunt a good edition, maybe instead of avatar of the resolute.
