not sure that would work because spreading algae says when enchanted land becomes tapped destroy it. but, if it did work, Mana web would be fun as well.

So... Infinite energy. Cool. However, I bet that you could find a better kill card than longtusk cub. Cook deck overall though. Also I looked up the gatherer rulings for greenbelt rampager, and found that it can't actually go infinite... Or rather out cash her you to two energy an infinite number of times. So if you don't pay at least one energy when you already have two your elephant stays on the field because you must pay the two for it even if you don't want to. But you can do that here. Good job.

Love the use of the algae and urbog here. Looks like a lot of fun to play with. But not against. :P

Hmm... Meh?
Just a straight forward R/G deck huh? I would say that madcap skills and alpha authority would go well in here.
Is there something I am missing?

Kira would be hilarious here.

lol... this is rather funny. someone dug up one of my old 1 cmc decks. are people on the vault building a lot of them now?

that being said, this looks pretty good.

taste for mayhem is an interesting choice here, as I imagine your hand will probably empty fairly soon, so I think it works well here.

Yes, it is still 1 cmc, but it doesn't do anything for only a single mana.

There was a set of rules that we went by when building 1 cmc decks, which was a thing here on the vault for a short period of time. I THINK... We decided that X spells that did nothing when played for just 1 mana were not allowed in our format. That being said they do technically fit the requirements and could certainly be used if somebody wanted to build a deck like that.

Well, I do have a little protection from removal with Vines of Vastwood and Counterspell. But you are right that I need a more reliable threat.

I should probably run manamorphose, but what wood you suggest swapping for it?

Thanks. Those are excellent suggestions. I really need to redo this deck because it is old, and there are certainly not cards that are viable in a format like this.

Yeah, I probably need to update this. There are almost certainly some better options now than when I designed this deck. Thanks for the like. That being said, since you like this you should look at a "deck" that I have called wandering one drops. It is a list of nothing but one drop decks like this. Some are mine, most are not. All are pretty interesting. :)

Well, this was supposed to be played in a format that only allowed 1 drops, which chalice isn't. But if that happened then yeah. You would have to scoop against chalice for 1.

Very cool. I put together a similar deck series. :) though mine are mono colored. Love the idea of having a deck that is simpler enough that anyone can pick it up and play with it with minimal instruction on how to actually play the game.

Fascinating. I wonder what pulled this old deck up into the hot page? Props, by the way. I never could get extort to work well when it was standard, and this is an excellent use of it.

I recall when exquisite blood came out. I was one of the first to build a deck around it. It wasn't standard, but it worked pretty well.

thought about tormod's crypt, fountain of youth, or shield sphere for this?
or hilariously... gut shot? or maybe even noxious revival.

that's true but... they can't be played for a single mana. :( and I am not running green here. that being said I do like the idea of have those in a WG landfall deck.

also, something like Argivian find or remember the fallen might be pretty good in here.

yeah. hangerback or endless one will die right away, but they do enter, thus triggering Altar.

yes, this works.

he does, but FM doesn't say each time you sacrifice a clue to draw a card, it simply says when you sacrifice a clue.

interesting, but I am not sure he is looking to actually sacrifice the clues to draw cards a lot.

I could be wrong though.
