[Deck] 12 Post

[DNSolver]

Been playing this deck a good bit and especially liking the GSZ deck.

Sphere is good vs UG omnitell in conjunction with Krosan Grip to prevent losing to Omni -> Emrakul. Would recommend keeping it. If you want to beat storm and belcher, though, you probably also need Chalices in the board.

GSZ and OUAT are not mutually exclusive. OUAT lets you play only 8 green sources (cast as first spell to find forest) and find cloudpost to turn on Vesuvas in opening hand. I have been playing with GSZ and I like having access to Teeg G1 vs storm. A one-of Ancient Tomb is also nice to facilitate this so you can turn 2 Teeg with Crop Rotation + 2 forests.

Tabernacle is good right now vs the delver decks because most of them are playing Young Pyromancer - we can pretty easily have a better blocker for big creatures, but are vulnerable to go-wide or flyers (like 2 Delvers). Would still play Glacial Chasm as well.

Thragtusk and Oracle are not great. I put in 2 Elvish Rejuvenator.

Reclaimer has been pretty good, fits nice when cutting down to 3 Crop Rotation.

I've played a couple iterations of 12-post - GU, GW and several versions of the mono-green. I can tell you two colors is a stretch let alone three and that mono-green is by far the strongest since it is low key better card selection than blue with OUaT and ancient stirrings. Reclaimer, veil and force of vigor are also reasons to play mono-green.

I haven't been impressed with GSZ tho. It takes up too many slots and makes the deck less consistent. I've had a lot of success online with the following list due in large part to the meta. Snowko, dark depths and graveyard decks just feel like a buy. ANT and elves are bad matchups but post sideboard I can usually eek out a win.

3 Elvish Reclaimer
3 Elvish Rejuvenator
1 Emrakul, the Aeons Torn
1 Emrakul, the Promised End
4 Golos, Tireless Pilgrim
1 Ulamog, the Ceaseless Hunger
1 Walking Ballista

Spells – 19

3 Ancient Stirrings
3 Candelabra of Tawnos
4 Crop Rotation
2 Expedition Map
3 Once Upon a Time
4 Pithing Needle

Lands – 27

1 Ancient Tomb
1 Bojuka Bog
1 Cascading Cataracts
1 Cavern of Souls
4 Cloudpost
1 Eye of Ugin
1 Glacial Chasm
4 Glimmerpost
1 Karakas
1 Maze of Ith
7 Snow-Covered Forest

So I’ve stuck with mono G after what you and others have said. I’m now wondering if Uro will make us splash an island or run 4 cavern? The card seems very good, but without testing only time will tell.

Does anyone have a more current decklist they are running? I've been trying out Green urborg and 1 main deck Endurance and 2 sideboard endurance. Endurance has been great for me, so far greenborg hasn't done very much.
