No sideboard found.

The owner of this deck hasn't added a sideboard, they probably should...

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

I'm fairly new to magic (about 1 month more or less playing) and I found this website so I figured I'd post up one of my decks to get some feedback on it.

My gameplan for this deck is usually to lay a ton of land out fairly quickly then throw Protean Hydra out.

Deck discussion for First Deck (Green mono)

Yea! my first deck had this very same strategy! ok, so plummet, feral contest, Dryad's Favor, and fog should go into your side deck. Put in some more cultivates and rampant growths. Awakener Druid was my favorite card, but over time, he seemed to just make my necessary lands very vulnerable when he turns them to creatures, so its up to you if you want to keep him or not. Maybe add Timbermaw Larva, or even better Scute Mob, for more forest powered creatures. And if you could add more Overruns or Overwhelming Stampedes, that could really help buff your creatures. Otherwise, not bad! Have fun!

With a lot of low cost creatures and a lot of land gain, I would reccomend to put in a Khalni Hydra if you can find one. I have a similar deck and I know that Bellowing Tanglewurm is a powerfull asset as well.

You should look to focus your deck. If you want it to focus around mana ramping and then getting a beastly creature out like Protean Hydra you should at the very least add more Protean Hydras and eliminate any cards that deviate from that goal.

Vines of Vastwood should be a four of here because you don't want your Hydras to be Doom Bladed as soon as you drop them. You should be looking to add more Cultivate, Harrow, and Arbor Elves as they all speed up your mana deployment.

Dryad's Favor is pretty useless in here since you have no Enchant Lands that I can see. Primal Bellow is a pretty powerful pump spell in a mono green deck, you should have at least three of those. I would also consider adding Groundswell because you will almost always have land entering play on your turn.

General rule of thumb when I make a deck is asking myself "How is this card helping me accomplish the goal of this deck" and if it's not I get rid of it. You should do the same.
