Deck Description

My concept of a bait deck. Generates alot of mana fast as well as creatures fast. Seeking a way to give it some protection though.

How to Play

Basic combo is to flash in a hornet's nest with chord to chump a large creature. Yisan gets creatures coming out fast while Xenagos makes sure you have a ton of mana and your life isn't a target. Triggering and re-triggering Purphorous's poke with the ability to bounce cards like Hornet Queen and replay them will probably make anyone without a windstorm handy scoop. Mana Confluence is for early red generate if you're failing to draw our hexproof defender. Ideally win at turn 5-6

Deck discussion for B8TEDDD

THE MAIN BOARD
For the Sabretooth combo: Frontier Siege to fight-trigger an entering Hornet Queen or just for the ridiculous amounts of mana; Genesis Hydra

I'd probably drop the Soul of New Phyrexia, while it is a pretty bonkers card it you seem very susceptible to early board states from your opponent. Mainboard the Whisperer of the Wilds and drop the Yisan. She takes way too long unless you were to use Prophet of Kruphix and even still. Hydra Broodmaster is a card I've always loved and it would be a good addition if you're looking to ramp/search into something quickly that can generate tokens for Purphoros.

The Hornets Nest + Arcbond Combo is good in theory but realistically I don't think it would help you win all that much. It would very likely require you wiping your board and doing damage to yourself, with the payoff of hornets only being worthwhile IF you have Purphoros out.

Twenty-two or more lands is recommended in stanard, and I think you can replace the mana confluence for 4 Wooded Foothills since there's no red before 4 CMC, with around 2 basic mountains for when you need it.

Nissa and Sarkhan are also wonderful secondary win conditions, but financially it's understandable to avoid them.


THE SIDE BOARD
NYLEA'S DISCIPLE! NYLEA'S DISCIPLE! NYLEA'S DISCIPLE would be killer for a Jeskai, Mardu or Abzhan deck if they couldn't finish you off early.

Reclaimation Sage is a hot item in standard, it takes care of the Ascendency's, enchantmen-creatures, artifact-creatures

Setessan Tactics allows you the opportunity to respond to things that a green deck normally would be powerless against (enter the battlefield triggers, flying attackers, kill spells, etc)

THE MAYBE-BOARD
Polukranos and Arbor Colossus are pretty beast cards.

It's a fun idea, seems like it needs some tweaking but I'm interested to see how it plays out.

Thanks for the input. I'll take a look into sideboarding and mainboarding some suggestions you made and let you know how it goes. Looking to play this in about 2 weeks.
