yeah i had considered makinig this a standard deck but i really just play with this deck for fun and it runs amazingly well right now lol. but if i was to make it standard green would be the color id pair it with.

if you want to really get some insane mana going try adding some arbor elfs and a mana relflection or two using the overgrowth and wild growth you have potential to stack 30+ every turn or if you just want a really cheap cast cost card rofellos the llanowar emissary (legendary elf) taps to add one green to ur mana pool for each forest u conrol its an amazing two drop. any of these would speed this deck up to an ungodly pace.
thanks man, cemetary reaper thats nice, and your right black/green zombies is uncommon and i dont really know why but its everyone else's loss lol. believe it or not this was my first deck build approx. 8 months ago i made a few revisions since then but overall its still my first deck and one of my favorites so im glad you enjoy it.
if your looking for extreme mana arbor elf is the way to go also try rofellos the llanowar emissary (best green card in magic in my opinion) but back to extreme mana 4 arbor elves 4 utopia sprawls and a couple of mana reflections equals ungodly mana a good hand would go t1 land + arbor elf t2 land + utopia sprawl+ arbor elf (if you have anything else to play you still have three mana so a priest of titania would be excellent) t3 land+ mana reflection and youve got 10 mana to spare on turn 3 which you can cast almost anything and t4 without landfall you have 22 mana so use your imagination lol
all in all a really nice deck build zombie infestation was a nice addition. It goes really well with the overall theme of the deck i run a G/B zombie deck which supprisingly i dont see many of but feel free to check it out maybe get some ideas like undead warchief for a little speed and soulless one would massacre in this deck of yours like woah lol..... http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=317187
Yeah man no problem. a turn three reap and sow with the entwine and most people will just concede lol....
check out my green deck based around howl of the night pack and geletanious genesis for some new ideas http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=310713
oh yeah caged sun could easily be a good replacement for gauntlet of power
Yeah man gauntlet of power, rofellos the llanowar emissary, mana reflection, any spell that puts land onto the battlefield cultivate is my favorite but any way a good hand will play out like t1 llanowar elves t2 rofellos and llanowar elves,t3 guantlet of power and you still have six mana so i dont know cultivate, t4 17 mana, thats assuming landfall each turn
understandable about the straight mill might consider running grindstone in the sideboard its really great against mono colored decks
in my opinion using things like elvish piper or other means to bring out eldrazis is just not worth it if you just run really good mana ramp instead you can easily acheive the same results around or about the same turn and you can replace the piper and the amulet with cooler things like howl of the nightpack and then just hardcast your eldrazis plus your friends cant say anything when you pay 11 on turn 4 to play pathrazer
my friend has a deck very similar to this his biggest problem was running out of steam before the library was completely gone so we retuled it slightly making use of black discard spells. the deck is now pretty fierce the added discard slows your opponent way down allowing you to take full advantage of the mill 4 hymn to taurach would be a good start....
You might want to try shrine of burning rage its a good two drop that can put you over the top mid game
have you thought about adding a rofellos the llanowar emissary to the deck its a 2 drop that doubles your mana and its a huge target on the field drawing attention away from everything else on the field just a thought.....
the real problem with this deck is it has no major theme there are like 3 or 4 good deck ideas floating aroung in there but no central main theme other than that there are artifacts if you want to start setting up a massive central them make it green blue...use green for mana ramp add 3 myr turbine 4 prototype portal a few copies of parrallel lives and you can mass a myr token army rather quickly also unwinding clock would work well then since you added green you could throw in a couple privileged position protecting your whole field.......just a thought
