iMtG Server: Gathering

G/W Populate 75 cards, 15 sideboard 11 {Forest} 11 {Plains} 1 {Gavony Township} 23 lands 4 {Vitu-Ghazi Guildmage} 3 {Arbor Elf} 3 {Avacyn's Pilgrim} 3 {Centaur Healer} 2 {Dryad Militant} 1 {Trostani, Selesnya's Voice} 16 creatures 4 {Selesnya Charm} 4 {Call of the Conclave} 4 {Advent of the Wurm} 3 {Rancor} 3 {Rootborn Defenses} 2 {Oblivion Ring} 1 {Ajani, Caller of the Pride} 21 other spells Sideboard 2 {Dryad Militant} 2 {Frontline Medic} 3 {Druid's Deliverance} 3 {Sundering Growth} 3 {Skylasher} 1 {Oblivion Ring} 1 {Rootborn Defenses} 15 sideboard cards

This deck is all about populating 2/2 and 3/3 tokens early on, then swinging big at your opponent. Pretty simple stuff. This deck has a bunch of best case scenarios on the first few turns, and always manages to be consistent.

Example:
Turn 1- {Avacyn's Pilgrim}
Turn 2- {Wayfaring Temple}
Turn 3- {Call of the Conclave}, then {Rancor} Wayfaring and swing for 5, populate a 3/3 centaur

Turn 4 onwards are when different options come into play depending on your opponent.

 {Intangible Virtue} is always amazing with tokens

I might replace {Righteous Charge} in the sideboard with it.

Alright, this is what I've come up with. Any opinions and criticism? I'm trying to not break my budget.

If you can, try to get  {Voice of Resurgence}. Yes it's pricy, but totally worth it. Also i would replace the wake reflections in sideboard with maybe  {Loxodon Smiter}, he's no token but perfect against control. Plus, if you have wake reflections in your hand and nothing to populate, it's a dead card.

I totally agree. I actually just bought a set of {Skylasher} to replace {Wake the Reflections}.

Unfortunately, {Voice of Resurgence} just costs way too much for me to afford. Hopefully I'll pull one sooner or later, but until then, I have to stick to my budget. (Never ask your girlfriend out a few days before her birthday; the anniversary/birthday combo will ruin your wallet)

I have the answer for that: Either 1.) Dump her, problem solved on both counts. B.) Marry her. After the first year or two, you don't really buy gifts anymore.

Totally understandable, I'm still trying to get a play set of voices myself so I can build the "voice of servitude" deck (check it out online, got 2nd at an opening) but yes skylasher is a great replacement.

I'm planning on the latter. The cash isn't even for gifts, it's just to take her out. I'm going to surprise her with a dinner out, and then we're going to head to Carolines.

Anyway, back on topic: I made some semi-drastic changes to the deck to make it more versatile.

Any more suggestions?

Maybe some duel lands, also I'm not a fan of thespians stage.

I'm trying to get some dual lands. {Thespian's Stage} is there in place of {Grove of the Guardian}, since {Advent of the Wurm} made it obsolete.

2 {Dryad Militant} replaced {Skylasher} in the main deck, and those {Skylasher} are now in the sideboard.

If anyone else has any more suggestions to make this more competitive, it would be much appreciated.

I made some more adjustments, mainly by getting rid of {Wayfaring Temple}.
