Lead the stampede?

I thought it would be an interesting way of grabbing creatures

I might suggest garruk relentless

I don't have any of him unfortunately, does he search for creatures?

His flip side does

Idk a plains walker may be too slow, though I may not have enough creatures to make lead the stampede that effective...

I think if your going for a way to consistently get creature on the field, you have to find something that works every time...but bust my @$$ if I know what that is...

Less other spells maybe some lair delves or mana ramp to thin the deck...?

Mana ramp seems good, it's pretty reliable

Double red and double green spells slow it down.

Put in {copperline ridge} and {rootbound crag}

I was hoping the mana ramp would help balance out he double symbols, mostly because I don't want to spend the money on the duals

That's what I would do

I updated, I think the mana ramp should help now

I like this version!!

Thanks! Once AVR comes out I'll begin play testing

Where's the ramp? I see llanowar elfs 4 and 3 rampant growth... That's not really helping red.

Budget deck? {viridian emissary} is ok.

"Land finding devices" I also count a playset if evolving wilds

Try {borderland ranger} for deck thinning. Also {Solemn Simulacrum} can help with ramp as well.

Right

Blitz implies quickness right? What's quick about evolving wilds? Land comes into play tapped 😒plus it counts towards your land for the turn😖

Bops
Dual lands make this less chancy. I mean what If you draw double land guys and no 2 of a kind of land? Slows it down eh?

Not trying to argue just trying to point out a contradiction of actual deck not geling with intent 😁

I've noticed though that since I don't have a lot of one drops the evolving wilds wond slow it down so much though. I do think borderland ranger is an excellent contribution. I'm just trying to save some money by not buying the dual lands lol
