I'd like to give a warm heart felt thanks to CGB (Dan) for his efforts in raising the funds for Extra Life's Campaign. It ensures that it's the future generations that matter most. Without those young people, our futures would not be possible. One day the tables will turn in which we will need those who we took care of when they needed us. Good job!

Thank you so much! I'm restarting magic I don't have many cards and was having trouble building a green-white deck with this kind of strategy, but I couldn't get it right. So I took this list and changed some cards to fit the ones I had and reduce the number of wildcards needed. right now, I'm at something like 7victories for 1 defeat.

I hate scute swarm for this very reason. I had someone dead on the board with some really big flyers that they clearly couldn't deal with. Their response was to play a genesis ultimatum and God knows what other ramp spells until the massive scute stack froze the game. It pissed me off so much. They weren't accomplishing anything, except maybe getting their cast X green spells daily.

at 15:40 , you could have created more swarms , you had 4 lands on the field and 2 in hands. Activate full control mode, put down 1 land, the swarms ability triggers, then in response you activate rootgrazer's ability to put down your 6th land. that way , the 2 triggers of the swarm will both copy it. and then you have fabled passage to copy them again.

I have noticed a couple (2) missed stops this past week. It's possible I wasn't paying attention and auto clicked through something... but IDK. It was the step right after attacks were declared in both instances. Just like in CGB's video. Maybe I'm just imagining it. Or there is an in game explanation (like ECD tax or something) that I'm not considering. But I'm starting to wonder. I didn't think much of it the first time, but the second time I couldn't figure out why it skipped ahead. Anyone else notice anything like that?

Would it not compete with Skyclave as a stomp target? you could create some interesting situations where they have to choose to stomp your ramp or your removal. As far Azusa being slow; I'd generally agree, except for that the deck is based on landfall, and azusa can threaten game ending turns earlier.

I dont like Azusa if you dont have a way to play cards from top of your deck or something similar. Azusa would be good in a Valakut Exploration deck, or maybe if you are playing Radha. But this deck will run out of lands quickly. It can work well if you have couple Murasa Rootgrazer out maybe but other than that i dont see Azusa providing that much value.
