I think the token Build might be better, but I'm newer to it and Im pretty solid with the Green Devotion deck. If it were you what deck would you play?

Devotion is more consistent and people likely won't be prepared for it, but i can't see you winning with it. BW Tokens if very consistent but more people will have a gameplan against it whether it is specifically for that match up or not. So it's your call, really, but if you are very good with the devotion build im an advocate of playing what you know.

It may be my green mage heart but I say go for the Gen wave. It seems like you might be able to pull a lot of quick wins out of nowhere.

Dalektable thanks, I am Leaning towards the devotion deck, but thought I'd get some other opinions. I doubt i'll win regardless, but I'd like to do decently. I think these are my 2 best choices with the decks I own.

I'm a fan of the token deck, but that may be because I don't like fragile-ish decks. Play what you feel more comfortable playing and what you have more experience playing.

This: "What you have more experience playing." Yes!

I took a deck that could have done much better to a PPTQ and because of the unfamiliarity with the deck I didn't do as good as I could have as a pilot.

(Granted it's a rogue brew so I face a few more difficulties.)
