The owner of this deck hasn't added a sideboard, they probably should...
Start typing a card name and use the auto-complete feature to quickly select the card you're trying to add. Enter a quantity and add that card to your sideboard!
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.
Built this from a couple of draft decks that I made the past few weeks. Last night tied for 1st place. (the draft deck) 2-0 first match, 2-1 second match 2-1 third match And they kicked us out before the fourth match because it was getting late. This deck Is built from that. Suggestions would be great. I would really like to have more token producing cards, not just populate. Because populate doesn't do much if I have no tokens out... Cheap and effective standard are my only requirements really. Oh, and sideboard suggestions are welcome too. :). Thanks in advance.

If you're looking for ideas, it would help to add in the comments what you plan to add/take out in the future--as it is, it's a nice deck. For me, the first thing would be to 4x Call of the Conclave, and also get some Selesnya Charms. Most populate costs aren't really worth it if all you're getting is a 1/1 bird, so you really want to always have at least a 3/3 cenatur to use it on--but the Grove of the Guardian and Armada Wurm are great targets for populate.

In all honesty, I don't know what I am gonna add or take out yet. But I am most certainly looking for advice and suggestions. As for the centaurs, I do have 4 heralds, 1 call of the conclave, and 1 coursers' accord. I would love so.e armada wurms, and a few more groves. I will certainly look for more of them. As is, this is what I have and I haven't been able to buy specific cards for the deck. (very little money). Thanks for the reply, and any other suggestions would be welcome. Oh, and I would like to keep this standard.
I totally hear you on the money thing--that can be a real hindrance. What is not a lot of money to some is a lot to others, so I will try to start with some suggestions that will not break the bank (e.g., armada wurms, smiters, etc.) The big thing for me is the heralds and accord are not very cost-effective. You're basically getting a 3/3 for four mana with the herald, plus a possible chump block, and two 3/3s for 6 with the accord (unless you have your grove popped). While these aren't bad, consider you're getting that same 3/3 for 2 mana with the Conclave, and the other things you can do at 6 mana with Selesnya (Grove, Wurm, Collective Blessing). You might consider -4 herald, -1 accord for +3 conclave, +1 blessing, +1 ranks/lives. First thing I would do is get some better 1 drops--dryad militant and arbor elf come to mind. Maybe even Avacyn's pilgrim, too. Here are my personal suggested changes, in the order I would add them, with prices according to cardkingdom. +3 Call of the Conclave: $2.25 +1 Collective Blessing: $0.95 +4 Arbor Elf: $1 +1 Grove of the Guardian: $0.75 +1 Growing Ranks: $1.50 +4 Dryad Militant: $3 For about $10, I think that'd significantly improve the deck. Again, these are just my personal preferences. You've got a good looking deck as is--I hope you have fun with this deck!
Those are some good suggestions, thanks. I will try them out and see how the deck runs. when I can get the cards that is. :). Again, thanks. Oh, and yes I do have fun with this deck.
Wayfaring temple might be another addition. If you dropped the Crusaders of Odric for 2 Wayfaring Temples you'd put out a creature with the same text and mana cost with the added benefit of potentially populating.
True, but the real question is should I drop the crusaders for the temples, or the geist honored monks instead? Is the 2 extra mana worth the tokens and vigilance? or would I benefit from tapering down the mana curve more?
Id keep the monks and drop the crusaders
For token producers, selesnya charm is very nice, and you cant go wrong with a playset of call of the conclave. Im not a fan of seller of songbirds though...maybe doomed traveller wold be better. Excellent chumper, and populating the token can get you places early. Lastly, intangible virtue is a must, id use 4. :)
The only reason I like the seller is because it doesn't have to die to put out the token. And yeah selesnya charm is good, although I am not sure if I want to take out the call of the conclaves. The 3/3 centaur sorcery, or the flexibility of the charm. :(Also, the intangible virtue is awesome... I just don't have any of them... :(
based in your deck i developed some ways to produce more tolkens using basically 3 cards:Increase devotion, Fungal Sprouding, and Rhys the Redeemed.If Champion of Lambholt is "buffed" or if the Elemental 8/8 provided from Grove of the guardian is in game, Fungal sprouding will be more effective.You can insert some mycoloth aswell, therefore you be aways producing double tolkens at your upkeep (parallel lives) as the same time you can populate (with growing ranks)and you can aways populate using vitu-ghazi , growing ranks (as mencioned) and trostaniAnyways, tell me your thoughts aswell. :)http://mtgvault.com/nandosalvia/decks/selesnya-tokens/
Ideas: Perhaps mana ramp would be in order to implement, say, Emmara Tandris.
Armada Wurm is actually pretty cheap when you consider a 5/5 Trampler, PLUS a 5/5 Trampler Token you can then Populate repeatedly. Add in Trostani, Selesnya's voice and you have a Machine that nets you +5 Life every turn, AND a 5/5 Trampling Wurm token. Now just throw in Crusader of Odric and your Chorus of Might is looking Scary. Check out my Selesnya Deck if you want any ideas. Its easily my most OP deck when it comes to casual play.
