Mono Green Devotion
Deck Help forum
Posted on March 13, 2014, 10:26 p.m. by Samnite7
Hey so i made a Mono Green Devotion deck and I'm having trouble deciding between Sylian Caryatid or Swordwise Centaur . I like the extra mana from the Caryatid but I like the devotion I get from The Centaur. I'm also thinking just scrapping those two and Putting Burning-Tree Emissary in their place instead. Here is my deck, any help would be greatly appreciated and also i plan on running at least Nyxthos, Shrine to Nyx and taking two of the Acolytes out...

What about the elf that lets you put a creature from your hand onto the field for 1 mana? I can't remember the name off the top of my head, I'm sure someone can. Also, strangleroot is very very very very very very very very VERY very good. Nykthos is also good,

I'm making a casual GR deck to put my loverly xenagos's in after the next rotation, as that will shake up my plans for standard.

Your deck's listed under modern, plus you got a lot of non-standard stuff in there

HorrorAvengers: You're thinking of Elvish Piper
Samnite7: You're right, the cards mckin suggested aren't in Standard, but since your deck is listed as Modern, they are valid suggestions.

Kalonian Tusker is strictly better than Swordwise Centaur .

If you're running mono green devotion, play Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx . Then throw in Voyaging Satyr in the mix to untap it so you can tap it again and you have massive amounts of mana. Sylvan Caryatid , Burning-Tree Emissary , and Kalonian Tusker are all really good cards that do different things to fit different themes. If you want more ramp in your deck to get out bigger guys, use Sylvan Caryatid . If you want to get multiple creatures out in a turn, use Burning-Tree Emissary since it is essentially free. If you want to be realy aggressive, use Kalonian Tusker . All willwork this deck. You just need to decide what you want to do with it.

4 nylea is way to many
Strangleroot geist and kitchen finks will give you reach vs control an board wipes, while allowing profitable blocks against zoo.
