Overwhelming Stampede is a card I've been looking to get for a long time for mono-green, for obvious reasons LOL

What are you running for a deck right now, Meltdowner? Big smile
Yes, that happens with a lot of cards Tongue The Genesis Hydra should come with a Genesis related flavour text... or a green creature called Giant Hogweed LOL

I know why Thran Golem didn't last long on mine: it's one of the few creatures without hexproof Tongue

So obvious Evil Smile

Here's my green/white, the best deck I have (still lose most of the times against the store's regulars LOL): http://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/06-07-15-greenwhite-humans/

Ageless Entity is a great card but you don't seem to have many cards to gain life. Maybe you could add another Wurm's Tooth or this one: http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=370592 (you also gain life when you cast a forest Smile)

Ghoultree is a really good card, there's also this one from the Innistrad block too http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=230624

Is Perilious Vault a good card for that deck?

I had a Thran Gollem on my white/blue but it wasn't very useful there? How is it on a mono green?

I finish a lot my games with this one when I play with my white/green, I think it would be a wise choice for that one too: http://gatherer.wizards.com/Handlers/Image.ashx?multiverseid=205003&type=card Cool

Thank you, sir!

Yes, Ageless Entity is really the only slightly-off card, but was chosen and added because it was the best fit relative to what I have access to from my cards. It's the first on my list to be replaced. I've actually got that Magus Staff already! I should just swap it out, Idk why I didn't think of that yet, lol.

Ghoultree has won me so many games it's not funny, lol.

PrognosticMind's Mana-Ramp Beasts-A-Plenty Mono Green Deck:

Creatures:
Llanowar Elves x 2
Essence of Wisdom x 1
Arbor Elf x 1
Elvish Mystic x 4
Ageless Entity x 1
Thran Golem x 1
Whisperer of The Wilds x 1
Dungrove Elder x 1
Genesis Hydra x 1
Ghoultree x 2
Terra Stomper x 2
Craterhoof Behemoth x 1

Sorcery/Instant:
Perilous Vaut x 1
Doubling Chant x 1
See The Unwritten x 1
Urban Burgeoning x 1
Abundant Growth x 1
Revive x 1
Awaken The Bear x 1
Fog x 1
Clinging Mists x 1
Overwhelm x 1
Reclaim x 1
Prey Upon x 1
Terrifying Presence x 1
Evolution Charm x 1
Eaten by Spiders x 1
Verdant Haven x 1
Plummet x 1
Natural End x 1
World Slayer x 1
Wurm's Tooth x 1

Land:
Forest x 22

There is a slight possibility that some of the numbers/counts are off here, as my deck was not in order when I just went through it. However - this deck absolutely SLAYS everything. I've been destroying mono-red aggro like nuts. The odds of me ramping up to Terra Stomper and the game-ending Craterhoof Behemoth are so high with this combination of cards, that's it's so much fun.

I didn't play a single game since my last post, never had a chance to cast Elspeth Tongue
I'm quite curious about that mono green deck Smile

Glad to see you guys and gals are still in the swing of things! :)

I just recently made a KILLER green mono deck that I'll upload shortly. It's by far the best deck I've made yet, and it crushes red aggro very well.

The game changed a lot in the last 5 years, but I like both the older and the newer sets, it's very different.
 I'm glad they'll release less sets every year, it's difficult for me to keep up with the new stuff, and there will be less useless cards to fill the sets Tongue

Yes! It was quite a sensation. I stop playing some 5 years ago, but there is still so much kids playing.

And the reasons we have so "ancient" cards is beacause the cards are so expansive here that we buy few, plus we really hate the last editions. hehe

^ That's really old school! Awesome card, especially when you cast lots of cheap soldiers Thumbs Up
I played against some Brazilian players here, it seems like the MTG store is their home away from home. You sure have a big Magic community in your country Smile

I had an awesome deck of soldiers! I remember using "Wing Shards" several times and my friends just going crazy!!!

Good times. Smile

^ Welcome back, I haven't seen you here in a while.

I didn't buy anything from Modern Masters, I don't even know what's on that edition Tongue I played on some Modern tournaments with my White/Green human deck though, which got even better since Innistrad left Standard and the prices of the cards lowered a lot: I finally have 4 Champion of the Parish there, it's so awesome Cry Also got a planeswalker, Elspeth Sun's Champion, that also became much cheaper because it was released on a Dual Deck Wink
I bought a few months ago a 2015 Deck Builder like you got and started a nice mono green deck. I have some cool stuff to start a blue and red one too.

Welcome back, folks! How has everyone been? Anyone getting into Modern Masters, despite the steep price increase?

Yes, I follow the YouTube channel of the guy that just recently opened that Black Lotus...amazing stuff!

I've also fallen out of buying Magic for the time being, as I'm allocating resources elsewhere. We still play from time to time, and my decks still kick ass. Great to see this thread still going, btw! : )

Yep. Possibly the most valuable card ever. I doubt they'll find someone to pay the asking price, but it's one of a kind (there's no other 10 graded Beta Lotus)
