Deck Description

Basic Idea:
The idea for came with M19 and the re-print of Blanchwood Armor.

Building it
The first idea was a deck that would have as many creatures with "power and toughness equal to the number of forests you control" as possible. But in the end I decided to go a different way and concentrate on a single creature: Dungrove Elder. Already a powerful chap Blanchwood Armor doubles his effect and in combination with some search-spells he will get strong very quickly. Only Kalonian Twingrove was added because he comes with a token that's a copy of him. Mwonvuli Beast Tracker was thrown in to search for the Elder while Rampant Growth and Harrow should make him big fast enough, Boundless Realms was thrown in as a bonus. Fists of Ironwood and Rancor should provide Trample and the Fists should help against "sacrifice a creature" decks. Last Harmonize was added to get some carddraw.

Tests:
At the moment this deck exists only on this site and has never been played against another deck. Regardless I'm open to all suggestions and ideas that may help to further improve this deck.

How to Play

Getting a good starting hand can be a little tricky but hands with 2-3 lands and either a Dungrove Elder, Mwonvuli Beast Tracker or some ramp with a Harmonize should be kept.
Dungrove Elder is a good target for Blanchwood Armor, Fists of Ironwood or Rancor as he is very hard to get rid of thanks to his hexproof. Rancor can also be used on Kalonian Twingrove without the fear of loosing two cards to one spell.

Deck discussion for monoG: Dungrove Elder Armor

Would you consider some value creatures like Primal Druid, and Viridian Emissary in order to have early blockers, targets for Rancor even to force your opponent to kill them. It gets your ramp going and gives you a blocker, or even potential removal sponge to lead into your big beasts.

2 Viridian Emissary (with 2 more in the sideboard) could be an option instead of Rampant Growth. Or perhaps Sakura-Tribe Elder instead of the Emissary as he can be sacrificed any time and is of use even against less aggressive decks.
