Hi,

I've been wanting to play a simple green creature deck for some time. Big green creatures enough in this game, however it's pretty hard finding a decent general for it. After I took a look at the banned list, I noticed Roffelos isn't banned anymore, and he is propably the best general available for this kind of deck.

1 Omnath, Locus of Mana
1 Ohran Viper
1 Mindbender Spores
1 Eternal Witness
1 Elvish Harbinger

1 Krosan Drover
1 Oracle of Mul Daya
1 Chameleon Colossus
1 Elvish Piper

1 Thorn Elemental

19 Other Spells

Right now I have 107 cards, so I still need to cut a few. Are there any cards I've missed?

Please let me know

One card I love is Wild Pair. It's good in mid-range decks, but it's awful fun!
And I also must raise a toast for Willow Satyr, sweet old-school tech!

I actually cut cards like Wild Pair, Dual Nature and such. I was playing with them, but seeing the list is still too large, some sacrifices needed to be made. Satyr has been a house. In this deck you can normally play it turn 3 and when left unchecked, it's a very decent defense against almost every General I've encountered.

I am actually looking for some suggestions about what to cut or add right now. I am looking to cut around 5 creature cards and 2 non-creature cards. Or should I just get rid of 7 creatures and which?

I thought EDH was played for fun and to use a bunch of your older, too weak to play competitively, cards. This is what happened when you try to test your build out on mws (got I hate that the mws thread is locked)

0:00:10 [Atwa] Atwa puts Rofellos, Llanowar Emissary into play from Sideboard
0:00:30 [Imperator] Imperator puts Vendilion Clique into play from Sideboard
0:00:43 [Imperator] <Imperator> lol, another clique net-decker
0:00:51 [Imperator] <Imperator> rofellos*
0:00:53 [Atwa] Atwa shuffles library
0:00:54 [Atwa] Atwa shuffles library
0:01:06 [Atwa] <Atwa> netdecker? I build this verion myself
0:01:10 [Imperator] <Imperator> sure
0:01:12 [Atwa] <Atwa> keep
0:01:16 [Imperator] <Imperator> but all the archetypes are the same
0:01:29 [Imperator] <Imperator> 6 on 3 is game
0:01:32 [Imperator] <Imperator> but go
0:01:41 [Atwa] Atwa plays Forest from Hand

0:06:47 [Imperator] It is now turn 9 (Imperator)

0:07:28 [Imperator] <Imperator> you said you built this deck yourself?
0:07:38 [Atwa] <Atwa> yep
0:07:51 [Atwa] <Atwa> would anyone else play killer bees?
0:07:53 [Imperator] <Imperator> you must have posted it on MTG Savation and MTG Source then
0:08:02 [Imperator] <Imperator> because actually, yes
0:08:07 [Imperator] <Imperator> a lot of decks do it
0:08:08 [Atwa] <Atwa> I posted it on the source, 3 days ago
0:08:18 [Atwa] <Atwa> in a fresh thread
0:08:40 [Imperator] <Imperator> theres a pretty similair deck on Salvation, and there was one about 3 months ao on source already
0:08:45 [<System>] <System> Player Lost


Yey for people who play longer and are a bit more mature.

Anyway, screw him. I still need some ideas to make the deck better.

I would replace killer bees with unyaro bees. It is strictly better in this deck.

Heck, I'd just play both. Things to do with all your mana? Bonus.

Also, Vernal Bloom seems playable. Triple your mana instead of doubling it :) Although that would start leading to things like Extraplanar Lens and Heartbeat of Spring and then it might get out of hand ;)

I wanted to go this route, but desided against it when starting to build it. However, with Omnath things just get stupid if I add those cards. I might consider it :)

I added Emakhul as big beater btw, this deck can easily come up with 15 mana on turn 4/5.

No Staff of Domination?

No Staff of Domination?

Since resolving Staff will mean I win, I try to avoid that card.

In a tournament I would off course include it in my list, but for normal casual play, I like to play as hard as possible without playing direct I win cards.

Lurking Predators is awesome as hell in this deck. Basically, the card reads "Whenever an opponent casts a spell, flip a coin. If its heads, but a random creature in your library onto the battlefield." Most EDH decks makes the card work pretty well, but having 50% creatures just makes it insane, especially in multiplayer.
