Junk(Abzan) Superfriends...
Utilizing the fact that Genesis Hydra can bring any type of permanent to the board... ...though I can't choose a walker that I already have 1 of on the battlefield(or I can, but I have to sacrifice the other - perhaps if it has not so many Loyalty counters it's worth it), if I play the Hydra for at least 8 mana, I will be able to pull something nice(even at 7 mana, it's almost impossible not to happen)...Ajani searching for other walkers & the other Ajani giving Loyalty counters for them... ...both Ajani have amazing +1/+1 counter abilities & the Hydra has counters as well, so Ivorytusk is relavent here... ...in the sideboard, I run 3 Abzan Charm which can also give counter for creatures(just a thought).......There are pretty much lifegain if you look at it(Courser; Sorin; Ajani; Rhino; Garruk)... ...so surviving against burn & aggro decks isn't a problem...With Courser, you can get information that could help you decide which ability to activate on Ajani, Mentor of Heroes & you can aslo figure if you have a guarenteed pick for Genesis Hydra(just like in Mono-Green, but there it's guarenteed anyway)... ...I'm just saying if I have Siege Rhino, Ajani Steadfast or Sorin on top & I only have 6 mana for the Hydra, I'd still play it(if I don't have one of the same walker or walker with same subtype on board already)... ...that's how useful Courser is in this deck besides it's basic assets.......Liliana in the sideboard... ...her -2 ability can set up a card for either Genesis Hydra or Ajani, Mentor of Heroes...

Drew about 30 sample hands and man this deck works fine! even though there are 12 mana dorks and 4 courser, the deck has so many ways for something like a card adventage that it doesn't matter at all. you nailed this one and yeah definiately better than your other abzan deck. props man this deck rocks a.s! :)

Thanks, mate!Yeah, I didn't expect it to be this stabil & competative when I built it...
looking good would it be better with changing a hydra and the ajani mentor in main deck and sideboard to each other?
Possible option, but I don't wanna' have 4 Ajani-subtype walker in the main deck...
love it by the way it looks sick :)
you look strong here man lets drop a land for another mentor of the heroes but not sure.
Nah... ...that 25 land is perfect with the Courser & Scry...
god you can ultimate sorin turn 4 with ajani steadfast! this all is mean and super competative! many lifegain also what about three ivory main and 2 genesis
Yup... ...Sorin can be "ultimated" easily... ...I don't need more Ivorytusk mainboard...
in a planeswalker heavy expensive deck, you really need chain veil, and also speed up the land base by using less "enters the battlefield tapped" lands. I suggest sandsteppe citadel just for the flexibility and getting more basic lands instead of some temples, even though the scry does help... it's your choice But other than that, it is really good and definitely worth the like!
