Description of deck by its author (quoted):
The deck assumes no sorceries, instants, or
enchantments. The Rofellos – Staff combination should be sufficient for
you to get out many of these high-priced creatures, even if you're not
having a turkey turn! It also allows you to tap down any turkey you
like, so they are bereft of blockers.
Of course, the Tornado Elemental is as close as I would
get to a "sweeper" in this format. The deck does need some protection
against vigilant flyers, which is probably the worst threat such a deck
faces.
Rare replacement: Rofellos and the Staff are central to
the deck. Everything else is somewhat or very replaceable. There are other
creatures (e.g., Elvish Scrapper) which sack to get rid of artifacts.
Untapping constantly with Seedborn Muse is nice; but you can envision a
similar effect with Wirewood Symbiote and/or Wirewood Lodge. Smaller
untargetable creatures like Deadly Insect can work just fine in place of
Multani. Jugan, the Rising Star is really a super-spike of sorts –
consider Spike Feeder (or, if you have one, Spike Weaver) in his place.
Lone Wolf will go through for certain damage much like Tornado Elemental;
but you may value the ability to block flyers more. Green has tons of such
creatures. Finally, Verdant Force may appear irreplaceable at first; but
the point here is simply token generation for chump-blocking – something
Nuisance Engine, Penumbra Kavu, Orochi Eggwatcher, Dripping-Tongue Zubera,
Spawning Pit, and other cards do fairly well. You may also want to check
your ""spare rare"" box for Orochi Hatchery, Summoning Station, and
Bringer of the Green Dawn. |
