What do you guys think the top 10 green creatures are in standard?

Kalonian Hydra is one. Did you mean mono-green, or 2c cards?

Idk about all 10, or in which order these should go, but this list definitely needs Experiment One , Polukranos, World Eater , and Kalonian Hydra .

Mistcutter Hydra

Polukranos, World Eater

Burning-Tree Emissary

Experiment One

Boon Satyr

Deathrite Shaman

Scavenging Ooze

Arbor Colossus

Scavenging Ooze and Sylvan Caryatid also come to mind.

In no particular order:

Mono Green Cards:
Kalonian Hydra
Mistcutter Hydra
Nylea, God of the Hunt
Polukranos, World Eater
Scavenging Ooze
Sylvan Caryatid

Multicolored Cards:
Burning-Tree Emissary
Master Biomancer
Prime Speaker Zegana
Voice of Resurgence

Since green isn't a top tier deck in modern, there aren't many cards. Notable mentions when making a green deck are Garruk, Caller of Beasts , Mutavault , Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx .

on second thoughts Scavenging Ooze in 7th place instead of Domri Rade .

I second Elvish Mystic . He's pretty much in every green deck.

If we're talking about the Standard format, Deathrite Shaman doesn't deserve a spot, but it is #1 in terms of Eternal format cards that happen to be Standard. Assuming the former is the subject at hand (and let's shake things up with a BNG prediction)-

1) Polukranos, World Eater

2) Kalonian Hydra

3) Sylvan Caryatid

4) Mistcutter Hydra

5) Courser of Kruphix

6) Boon Satyr

7) Burning-Tree Emissary

8) Experiment One

9) Scavenging Ooze

10) Arbor Colossus

I didn't fully realize until making this list how great Theros was for Green. The only other BNG card that might crack this list is Nessian Wilds Ravager . Or if we're really being optimistic, Scourge of Skola Vale .

If Deadly Recluse is number one, Wizards should just stop printing Forest s.
