I clicked on this thinking it would be a plant deck.... I made this deck like this a long time ago, but it needs updating. I used different Thallids for more utility. 3x Sporesower Thallid 4x Thallid Shell-Dweller 4x Psychotrope Thallid 4x Utopia Mycon 4x Mycoloth And somehow Tukatounge thallid never made the cut. :| I think coat of arms is overkill. Since you've got the contagion engine in there, you're going for more of a late game thing. If you had 3 saprolings out, doubling season + parallel lives, and then played your mycoloth: Mycoloth gets 12 counters, spits out 48 saprolings during next upkeep. <--- you don't need them to be 49/49 each (and this is entirely without proliferate) because the fact that you have 48 of them means you can chunk your opponent anyway (no opponent will have 2392 life). The only time you'd need them to be beefy is if you were going against another token deck, which... coat of arms would do more harm than good granted that your tokens take a little bit more time to churn out then some of the other hoard decks. I think the contagion engine is too slow, given that you need to put out 5 mana cost spells. If you take out the engines and the coat of arms, your mana curve improves dramatically and you've got 6 more card slots to work with. I'd put a 4th throne of geth in there, leaving you with 5 slots. Maybe bump lands to 21, and add fog, nature's veil, giant growth type thing in there?
Oh oh! instead of coat of arms you can use Oran-Rief, the Vastwood. It puts out counters instead of flat stats so you can proc doubling season, doesn't affect your opponent, doesn't take up spell slots, and is free to play.
Oran-Rief? I'll look into it. Originally I was going to go BG with this, using Deathspore Thallid. (He's my favorite) Then I realized there's not many good black saproling generators, so I cut him out.
Lost the engine and the coat. Added Oran-Rief. That's pretty awesome. Also added Sprout Swarm. It's pretty cheap cost, if not free.
This sort of deck pisses me off. It's really cool, but... expensive. Right before I made my deck, Doubling seasons were 6$ a pop, and now they're over 20$?. That's ridiculous. But whats even more ridiculous is I didn't get any when they're were relatively inexpensive. >.< I still cant get over that you're not using Psychotrope over Germinator. With germinator, I'm assuming that you want to sac a bunch of saprolings to make a beefy creature, but 1 beefy creature probably won't do it, since you don't have landwalk or trample. I'd suggest adding Unnatural predation if you want to keep the germinator. <-- Which is a good idea so that you've got an alternative win condition. (Right now i'm loving overwhelming stampede too, or maybe beastmaster ascension). I also like Utopia mycon over thalid because its the same cost, has utility, and is a little tougher. The sprout swarm is real nifty. Tap 4/ 1 G, and you can continuously put out another token (or 4). Its an instant so you can use it at the end of your opponent's turn so you can block before tapping. I like it!
Yeah, I grabbed 3 when they were cheaper. Still haven't gotten around to grabbing my 4th. I'll look into your suggestions. Thanks!
