Deck Description

Work in progress, help is appreciated! I could not test this deck yet. Obviously this is a casual theme deck and not meant for competitive play.

The sideboard mostly holds cards that fit the theme.

How to Play

Land - & Mana ramping:
- Mycosynth Wellspring brings lands into play, Phyrexia's Core acts as sac outlet or Esperzoa lets me bounce Mycosynth Wellspring allowing me to play a land every turn
- Crucible of Worlds & Scapeshift is another way to play lands most of the turns.
- Lotus Cobra allows me to play Scapeshift without slowing me down, getting lands ready to play with Crucible.
- Lotus Cobra & Scapeshift allow me to cast Avenger of Zendikar or the other fatties as early as turn 3!

Card draw:
- Ichor Wellspring. Once again Phyrexia's Core acts as sac outlet or Esperzoa allows to bounce Ichor Wellspring every turn.

Finishers:
- Avenger of Zendikar & Titania, Protector of Argoth for tokens
- Roil Elemental to steal opponents creatures.
- Once either of them is on the table every land drop hurts, Scapeshift most probably ends the game.

Distractions:
- Dragonmaster Outcast act as early distractions but can get devastating on his own pretty fast as well.
- Phantasmal Image is mostly in to clone Lotus Cobra early game but can copy any other threat and act as an early blocker.

Defense:
- Kira, Great Glass-Spinner protects my creatures and forces opponents to use twice the removal spells.
- Glacial Chasm! Don't pay the upkeep, sacrifice it, get a 5/3 token, steal a creature, attack, revive Glacial Chasm, put a +1/+1 counter on your plant tokens and be invincible during your opponents turn.

Removal:
- there is no removal and therefore this deck must counter threats it can not deal with
- thanks to Glacial Chasm, creatures are no threat

Sideboard:
- Miren, the Moaning Well to sac stolen creatures and life gain
- Rampaging Baloths is an alternative for Avenger of Zendikar
- Vinelasher Kudzu as an alternative for Dragonmaster Outcast.
- Viridian Emissary as an additional way to play lands if Mycosynth Wellspring can't ramp fast enough. It's also an early blocker and another possible target for Phantasmal Image
- Energy Field & Wheel of Sun and Moon could act as early defense
