Going for a budget U/G Polymorph deck for my local FNM, throw some tokens out, polymorph into a big hitter.

Appreciate and thoughts and ideas people may have.

Thanks :-)

{Khalni Garden} because it's a land and a token

Straight swap for 4 Forests?

I would go less creatures and more tokens buuuut I'm not accustomed to this play style so I wouldn't know :)

Agreed. White is usually a good color here, you get cheap token generators like {Raise the Alarm} and {Midnight Haunting}. I suggest going mostly tokens using {Honor of the pure}, and {Intangible Virtue}, with a large finisher like {Stormtide Leviathen}. My deck used {Progenitus}, but that may be out of your budget. If you like, I can bump my list?

I'm thinking of removing elderscale.

If you could bump that would be great. Im trying to stay U/G, and wouldnt want to splash white. U/W may be tempting, though if I went U/W i'd wanna get some big Eldrazi's which are expensive. I went U/G for the cheap big green monsters

Plus the deck still has potential if no polymorphs show through big X/X tokens or through enough 0/1 spawns to pay the mana for my big greenies

Maybe run 2 or 3 proteus staff

Roberto982

Updated, taken down creature count, added in Proteus Staff, Catalog, more Fog effect
