Back Off Baby

It struck me; what if more of my creatures were indestructible? 

I love Elephant Guide, but it is an aura and those are weak cards, especially in the era the Guide comes from. So maybe those get replaced.

2 Bark-Knuckle Boxer

2 Thrun, Breaker of Silence

The initial runs were positive, though those were mostly goldfishes. Still, good sign is good. It made me wonder about killing my darlings. 

I really love Predator Ooze, but it has always been awkward in this deck. Triple Green is a difficult ask for a two color deck without a lot of mana fixing. 

And I lose games where I do not draw or successfully cast an Obliterate. So let's go further. Elephant Guide is a good card, and on brand for what this deck wants to do, but it's dead in hand if I don't have a creature. 

What about this:

4 Talisman of Impulse


4 Rukh Egg

4 Brindle Shoat

3 Fanatic of Rhonas

2 Incubation Druid

3 Stingerback Terror

2 Bark-Knuckle Boxer

2 Thrun, Breaker of Silence


4 Stomping Ground

2 Mountain Valley

6 Mountain

6 Forest

1 Gruul Turf

4 Cragcrown Pathway


3 Jaya, Fiery Negotiator


3 Obliterate

3 Jokulhaups

2 Harmonize

2 Explore
