No sideboard found.

The owner of this deck hasn't added a sideboard, they probably should...

Submit a list of cards below to bulk import them all into your sideboard. Post one card per line using a format like "4x Birds of Paradise" or "1 Blaze", you can even enter just the card name by itself like "Wrath of God" for single cards.


Deck Description

The idea was born from a suggestion on a deck by ajaxsawdy2:

http://www.mtgvault.com/ajaxsawdy2/decks/need-help-finishing-this-deck/

*Edit 13 June 2017:
- 4 Llanowar Elves
+4 Arbor Elf
Similar in effect, except Arbor Elf can untap Breeding Pool, allowing for access to double Blue for Rite of Replication.

How to Play

The basic idea is to get Shaman of the Pack out and ramp into kicking Rite of Replication to make 5 copies of the Shaman.

The combo pieces:
> Rite of Replication: The idea is to copy Shaman of the Pack 5 times by kicking this. But opponent's creatures and Elvish Archdruid are also viable targets.
> Shaman of the Pack: The main "I Win" card. Even without Rite of Replication, this can easily win you games.

As with any combo, we need to search for the combo pieces. To assist with this, I chose the following:
> Serum Visions: Best cantrip in the format.
> Elvish Visionary: Draws a card and counts towards everything that cares about Elves.
> Coiling Oracle: Kind of Elvish Visionary 5-8.
> Beck (Beck // Call): Can draw a ton of cards.
> Elvish Harbinger: Can fetch a Shaman of the Pack. Also taps for any colour mana.

We also need to ramp to kick Rite of Replication:
> Llanowar Elves: Gets things out a turn earlier.
> Elvish Archdruid: Adds a ton of {G}.
> Heritage Druid: Also adds a ton of {G}.

Other cards:
> Dwynen's Elite: supplies more Elves at a cheap cost.
> Ezuri, Renegade Leader: Can help keep the army on the battlefield, but is mostly a second with condition with his Overrun effect.
