Subsitute for Hamlet Captain?

Deck Help forum

Posted on June 27, 2013, 12:51 p.m. by Dericious_Ramen

Hey all, I'm really sorry if this is in the wrong forum. I couldn;t really pinpoint where exactly it would be, so I figured putting it in the help forum was the best route.

Anyways, I'm still messing around with my Mono-Green Soulbond deck a bit, and I just remembered that Innistrad is being dropped off the list sometime next month (?). Hamlet Captain is a relatively large staple in the deck at the current moment, being a handy 2/2 for 1G that actually gives a little bit more threat to my early game. Also, his +1/+1 bounces off of Wild Beastmaster and helps Champion of Lambholt achive her full effect before I have much soulbonding out.

Basically, what do you feel is a card that will fill his niche well when Innistrad is dropped?

Thanks for reading.

Scavenging Ooze might be really nice.

Just so you know, Innistrad block is rotating, not just the set. Dark Ascension, Avacyn Restored and anything not printed in M13 will rotate as well, so everything but the beastmaters and the rogue's passage will be gone as well.

Also, it will rotate when Theros comes in, which I believe is in September, so you have some time with this deck as standard legal.

Anything not reprinted in M14 that is currently in M13, is what I meant.

Welp, then this clearly displays how new I am to MTG. In that case, I'll probably just shelf this deck as a modern deal, just play it among friends and what-not, since the backbone of the whole thing is Avacyn Restored. Thanks for the heads up!
