I realize that the sideboard is trash, but it's mostly just for fun. It has pulled a T3 win before, though, so it's not complete garbage. Above all, it's fun to play and appeals to my land fetish. L; The coolest part is being able to say that I have a mono green deck with a mostly red mana base.

Tips are always appreciated! :D

I'd suggest you add {Choke}, {Sowing Salts} and {Anger of the Gods}/{Pyroclasm} to the sideboard. I feel like you also need some removal. Perhaps {Beast Within}?

Genius. I had already looked at Beast Within and I like it. I really just stopped paying any attention to the sideboard at all lol.

Choke is .loving. cheating.

{Rampaging Baloth} would be awesome as a 1 or 2 of

NovusOrbis

Use {Boil} instead of {Choke}; it's meaner. I also recommend Baloth and maybe {Sakura Tribe Elder}

I would highly recommend {Nissa, Worldwaker}. I have 2 of her in my Valakut deck and dude she has won me alot of games.

I thought about her, but I didn't want my 4/4 lands getting zapped. I suppose there's always room in the sideboard, as I would like to have her in the build.
