Main Deck (60 cards)

Sideboard (0 cards)

No sideboard found.

The owner of this deck hasn't added a sideboard, they probably should...

Submit a list of cards below to bulk import them all into your sideboard. Post one card per line using a format like "4x Birds of Paradise" or "1 Blaze", you can even enter just the card name by itself like "Wrath of God" for single cards.


Deck Description

I'm trying to build a mono green deck for a beginner here in standard. It's abusing elves and other various effects.

Yes, it's staying mono green. Multiple colors can be hard for some to grasp and I dont want to start her out with too many confusing mechanics. The thing is, all her friends play some sort of standard variants where I'm a Legacy kind of guy so I'm forced to use stuff from standard atm.

Dude I only play casual, so I don't know what your limited too... Umm Llanawar elf could help, Seeker of Skybreak, Birds of paradise, and Howling mines? To speed it up.

well if you're trying to build a deck for a beginner, i think that her deck shouldnt have to be standard. my first deck wasnt and if she is a beginner, then why would she need a standard? is she going to play it in tournaments? a ramping deck is very good to put together for newbies.

I explained to her the formats and she says she wants to play standard.

Standard s pretty hard core for a noob, it would require her to continually buy cards to keep up. That's why I never played standard.

Starting out, though, I suppose it would at least make the task of looking up cards less daunting. Good call on starting with a tribal deck too. Tribal is a great way to go for beginners.

maybe add in something like naturalize and then maybe add in a simple artifact like pristine talisman so she has a variant of everything
