maybe nykthos?
Quote from: Taysby on November 26, 2013, 09:47:04 AMPriest isn't legal, and garruk and nissa seem quite slow, especially nissa. A one-of emrakul is fairly standard and well-wanted, however.
{priest of titiana}
Maby {garruk! caller of beasts} to refil your hand and help you cheat out your craterhoof.
Quote from: abstractApathist on November 26, 2013, 08:00:27 AMI thought about making room for it by cutting llanowar elves, but the one drop mana ramp is pretty important and by the time I have 3 mana, things run pretty smooth.
{Heritage Druid}?
Quote from: Taysby on November 26, 2013, 09:47:04 AMSince my main win con is genesis wave, and garruk a main ability is to "cast", it would have great synergy.

Quote from: Taysby on November 26, 2013, 09:49:36 AMYou're right. Oran was a slow land so I cut it and added an emrakul.
I think Oran rag is a little bit too slow for this deck. You just want to puke out your whole hand ASAP.
And may I recommend {emrakul, the aeons torn} because of all that ramp
And {joraga war caller}
Quote from: Spencer Addington on November 26, 2013, 11:00:03 AMTrue, but it turns all elves into mana dorks with haste.Quote from: abstractApathist on November 26, 2013, 08:00:27 AMI thought about making room for it by cutting llanowar elves, but the one drop mana ramp is pretty important and by the time I have 3 mana, things run pretty smooth.
{Heritage Druid}?
Quote from: ConanEdo on November 26, 2013, 01:15:53 PMNo. It's 8th edition onward ;)Quote from: Taysby on November 26, 2013, 12:54:34 PMModern is from Mirrodin onwards, tempest is pre-Mirrodin.
Is {earthcraft} modern legal?
Quote from: Vileo on November 07, 2013, 07:26:49 PMAlthough I forgot to mention that my friend also plays {Garruk, Caller of Beasts}.
If you mean the expensive version, you need
4 {Verdant Catacombs}
4 {Misty Rainforest}
1 {Breeding Pool}
1 {Overgrown Tomb}
~5 Forest
4 {Heritage Druid}
4 {Llanowar Elves}
4 {Elvish Mystic}
3-4 {Deathrite Shaman}
3 {Nettle Sentinel}
3 {Elvish Visionary}
3 {Elvish Archdruid}
1 {Ezuri, Renegade Leader}
1 {Craterhoof Behemoth}
1 {Chord of Calling}
3-4 {Lead the Stampede}
2 {Beck // Call}
(this list probably isn't exact, it's just off the top of my head, really, but it's really close)
Since you can use Heritage Druid as soon as it comes into play, you use it to tap it and maybe some Nettle Sentinels, play some more elves to untap the sentinel, tap them, repeat. You use Beck so that you don't run out of gas while you combo. Your win conditions are incrimental damage, Hoof, and Ezuri. At least, that's how my friend plays it. But yeah you can literally just empty your hand on turn 2 if you had a dork t1 and a land t2, just play a heritage Druid and 2 other 1-drops, tap them for {G}{G}{G}, then lead the stampede and keep going on turn 3. Elves are the reason {Glimpse of Nature} is banned in Modern. T4 Craterhoof Behemoth for lethal is tempting, yeah?
