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 main combo is Explorer Scope + Ponder or Sage Owl to ramp your mana. Get your Scute Mobs out and pumped asap with Ranger of Eos and protect with Vines of Vastwood. Gigantiform is the end-game card as it can give a Mob or 2 trample.

Ornithopters are in because they can come out free with Ranger and are great combos w/ Explorer's Scope or Gigantiform.

The deck's downfall is that it depends so much on Explorer's Scope to clear the way through your deck. Without it you're very prone to get mana-flooded.
