This deck is based around Glissa the traitor! I obtained 2 at the pre-release and was eager to make a deck for her. I have 2 in the deck and added other deathtouch aspects such as vampire nighthawk and virulent swipe. I was aiming for a glissa like combo with vampire hexmage/virulent swipe for first strike/death touch. I wanted to add some mana ramp since green was part of it and kinda wanted big creatures but i only have geth in atm as far as big creatures. I wouldn't really mind if it had no big creatures but i find myself with a good amount of mana but no cards in hand and just top decking....so if anyone could help me try to smooth out the deck and balance it i would greatly appreciate it!

well, first of all, ill tell you what to cut; sadistic sacrement, viirulent swipe, slice in twain, lilianna vess, geth, mitotic slime, veriridan emisisary, accorders shield, and nim deathmantle. Lol, thats alot. Now for some suggestions as to why, and what to replace them with. Sadistic sacrement is good, but the 3 black will only slow you down, and you dont really need it. virulent swipe is good, butt i'd replace it with basilisk collar. it's soo good. basilisk collar and sword of vengeance means that you'll use first strike to deal only 1 point of damamge before they hit you, you'll gain the life, then the trample will go through to your opponent. (: slice in twain is good, but why not just use 2 naturalize? lilianna vess is too expensive to do the little she does. I know you're probably thinking "hey, if all these creatures are dying, why not just use her final?" well, because it'll take til about turn 8 to get there. which is too slow. Instead, try 2 mimic vat. they're cheaper, and do a much finer, solid job. Geth.... ehhhh. he's an alright guy, but if I were going to pay his mana cost, I'd rather see a grave titan hit the board. butt, you may not have the space. so we'll see. mitotic slime. as good a card as this is, the lack of deathtouch ability will only set you back. i'd change these up for acidic slime. they are actually sooo good. who cares if they're only a 2/2, when they enter you get to blow shit up, lol. and they have death touch. :D veridian emissary, if just not going to help you. if you want card advantage, use more explore. i'd swap the 4 equipment for 2 basilisk collar, 2 sword of vengeance. (: SO, all together, i'd remove; -1 sacrement -2 virulent swipe -1 slice in twain -1 grasp of darkness (yeah i just thought of it) -1 lilianna vess -1 geth -1 mitottic slime -1 veriridan emissary -2 nim deathmantle -2 accorders shield. so total, we removed 13. Let's add; 2 basilisk collar 2 sword of vengeace 1 naturalize 2 mimic vat 2 acidic slime 1 explore 2 grave titan 1 vines of vastwood. (: total added, 13. :D also, if you can, i'd switch out the terramorphic expanses for verdant catacombs. theyre a bit pricey but who knows, lol. also, switch the grasps of darkness for go for the throat or doom blade. the only thing besides that you may want to try, is to ditch 3 llanowar elves for 3 more birds (seeing how they can produce either green or black) and ditch the final elf for maybe a garruk, the wildspeaker or another glissa. hope I helped, man. and sorry I wrote you a novel.

Thanks alot for your response! I totally forgot about acidic slime, even though he is 2/2 he is very amazing. I think i will be able to make all the changes u have suggested but i am not sure about grave titan, he is a little too expensive >.< is there any alternative for him? i know he is amazing i just dont think i can get my hands on him atm because i am trying to improve this deck and buy the cards to make the battlecry deck u made. My wife would freak if i spend too much money lol. Thanks a lot for your response. You are very helpful, much appreciated!
haha, well im glad you enjoyed it! and ii dont know how expensive wurmcoil engine is, but he'd be a great alternative
oh and by the way, always make your deck 60 cards. no more, no less.
Ok ethan this is as good as i can do for now, i will replace the nims with the mimics as soon as i can. Istead of the grave titans for now i have garruk and the extra glissa. uhhh so currently i am at 61 cards i was thinking of taking eaither 1 llanowar elf or 1 vampire nighthawk out, but what do you think?
garruk is good, and glissa is actually a really good card. i'd take out a go for the throat.
alrighty! thanks so much for the help man, cant wait to play the deck now after the renovations!
anytime mann, :3
Except for EDH!! Woot! Haha.
Well, I was going to offer some suggestions but honestly, seems like EthanLewis has it all covered for the most part. If you're making the deck with a sideboard, move over the naturalize to that I think. At least 3 more land seems appropriate as well. 20 land is seldom enough, and it's something you'll learn over time as you continue playing more. The Nim Deathmantle requires a lot of mana to use and could probably go as well. More Acidic Slime is often welcome, though maybe not fully needed. Gatekeeper of Malakir seems like he's really hard to cast with kicker in this deck. Maybe I'm wrong but I would probably instead replace it with something like Consuming Vapors.
Ok ordered my cards this is what it will be like when they arrive, thanks for all the help everyone!
