Deck discussion for Green Infect

I'd think about:

-1 Giant Growth
-2 Nature's Claim (to sideboard, maybe)
+1 groundswell
+2 mutagenic growth (Best new card for infect decks!)

-2 Viridian Corrupter (to sideboard)
+2 Putrefax or Spinebiter (Putrefax will cripple or outright kill a blocker, Spinebiter... well he just bypasses them completely)

-3 Rot Wolf
-3 Cystbearer
+3 Unatural Predation(great for when they chump Ichorclaw Myr, or to tack onto pump combos if they block)
+2 Corpse Cur (Fun blocker stall loop if you play one and return the other, plus the obvious use)
+1 Livewire Lash (Pumps get real nasty when you cast 'em on a guy equipped with this)


Pistus Strike is nice for sideboard, flying creature destruction and direct poisoning.
I've been meaning to try some Flight Spell Bombs and Pistus Main board. You can either pop one of their creatures in the air and pistus it or use the bomb to send your creature flying over blockers. Though it could turn out a bit clunky, the potential is there though.

Also the usual blue/black hate in sideboard, and whatever else you see fit. Possibly Throne of Geth or other prolif if you need those last couple poison counters.


That's just what I'd personally do. I think you'd be happy with those changes. Though you would have slightly fewer creatures, the ones you have would be more effective. Putrefax or Spinebiters would be a breeze to cast with Garruk on the field.

Of course the ideal play would be the Glistener Elf swinging for the win on turn 2 pumped up like crazy.

Yeah I'm not sure why I wasn't going 4 mutagenic growth off the bat, thats a 4 of

I'm going to piss around with the creatures later tonight at some point. I was thinking corpse cur originally, but the main idea of this one is low CMC spells and shit tons of pump. Putrefax and Spinebiter are huge beefy threats, but with 18 lands I can't afford to draw them early and if I haven't won by turn 5 then I've probably already lost.

will look into more removal later too

you should try invigorate, if this is not standard. For Invigorate is epic for green effect
