Wow I like this deck. It's pretty solid, I couldn't think of anything more to add. Maybe more board control? Maybe Volt Charge? I feel like we need to add in a card that has proliferate here like Tezzeret's Gambit.
But overall, this is already good. Two thumbs up NotNobody!

I like it, it's a nice concept. I think this is a really nice counter production, maybe add some ramp to get out the mana quicker to help throw those counters out quick. But I really like how this deck works!

I'm running Somberwald Sage so I can use its mana production on my creatures such as primordial hydrs, and it allows me to use my land for spells. I do agree this deck might need some mana ramp. But the mana curve is low so I am buying the cards today so hopefully I can run the deck next week and see how it does.

Sounds good, I really hope it does well! I love it's flow, just be careful of those control decks they'll be the only issue it seems. Aggro won't be able to do its normal turn 4-5 kill on this deck.

You are right by how the deck looks against control.
I will post how the deck runs once I get it for fnm. Look for the update in the next week or do I hope. I start school next Wednesday so who knows what will happen, its my senior year of hs.

i suggest just taking out the somberwald sages because the only creature you'll really be needing them for is the primordial. but thats just my opinion. thanks for checking my deck out!

I've been considering some mana production but haven't come up with a conclusion yet. The deck is standard so decree of savagery would not work with this deck.

You might as well make it an entirely green deck at that point. I do like Ooze with PU but if you trash the IV then just take out the SD and add Champion of Lambholt for QQ's along with caravan vigil or dawn treader elk or some mana ramp thang.

Hey NotNobody I have more of a dialogue I wish to open with you. I have these cards and after seeing your deck I assembled it. What I was thinking is; instead of Increasing Vengeance-which is kind of hard to pull off on other than a Hunger of the Howlpack-how about we put in Fling? Seems like an odd man out at first but what if your PH (or other critters) gets pacified? Or murdered? at Instant speed we can just fling his full HP in the enemies face. I also see you were having the discussion of mana ramp so how about instead of Increasing Vengeance we put in Infernal Plunge-we can sack out a used BB or TG for RRR. Also in one main phase as a desperate ramp we could tap the Sage and then sack her for RRR. What do you think? I would really like to keep red in this deck but I feel we need mana ramp of some sort or an alternative to Prey Upon-which if put in would squeeze out the red almost entirely. Thanks for posting this deck!

I love what u have to say. I will make the change for fling, especially if it gets pacified it still grows every turn which is amazing. But I don't really like infernal plunge but it would alow me to use it for fling with one mana which might help. I don't know if I have room for prey upon but ill see what I can do. Love the input.

Add Champion of Lambholt and Curse of Stalked Prey. They both fit the deck and they work very well together.

I use curse of stalked prey in my vampires, but I feel like its too slow for this deck

Curse of stalked prey. Volt Charge. I would splash white for a Gavony's Township to buff everyone at once, even the creatures you have to buff the ones you really care about.

I don't really want to splash white just for a land

0

You're right splashing white for a land that spams +1/+1 counters isn't quite worth it, but white is almost worth it just for Travel Preparations. Hard to make the case for G/R/W though.

Nice job!

It seems like every time I've tried something like this - it was a proliferate mechanic using cards like Volt Charge, Tezzerets Gambit and creatures like vamps and stromblood berserker that get counters. But, I like your approach of using cards that provide counters.

Here's some of my previous lists

Red Vamps and Proliferate

also if you focus on lambholt as the center of the deck like i did, garruk relentless makes her bigger each turn and should your opponent attack garruk your dragon gets poked again :)
