Not the starcity build. I haven't even seen that yet. I usally don't play green, but this seemed to good not to put together. So here it is.

I like it, but i think you can find a better 3 drop in place of Centaur Healer. what about Champion of Lambholt or Silverblade Paladin? they are harder to cast but i think they're way better.

This is much more mid-range than aggro, looks decent though. I agree there are plenty of better 3 drops, I forget the name but if you want 3 life and a creature there is a 1 mana white guy that gives you that. Since the deck is already more mid-range than aggro, I'd suggest {Armada Worm}. And as a rule of thumb, you want 4-ofs of almost everything except legendaries or bombs for consistency. Just my two cents

The thing about {centaur healer} is that zombies will be the best deck coming out the gate. It is bigger then most of the zombies. Gaining more life then they can take will be the key to those match ups. Tokens also will fall into that category. And yes the deck is more mid-range than aggro.

As far as not running {armada wurm} in the deck is that {Sigarda, host of heroines} can block zombies without fear of being {tragic slip}ed or {dreadbore}.

But tragic slip doesn't make you 'sacrifice' her. It would make her get negative counters, therefore killing her, right?

EDIT: forgot she was hexproof. Stupid me.

After playing the deck did any cards seem lackluster or not useful? Improvements can always be made and you probably saw first hand what those changes could be

The mana dorks are what seemed at times not useful. Some times I would side them out. It may be fun dropping a turn 2 smitter but they were meh all night.

You could take the arbor elfs out for the 2/1 that exiles instants and sorcerys if they go into the graveyard

{Silverblade Paladin} might be better then {Centaur Healer}, but in my meta {Centaur Healer} is more useful.
