This won't help your brokeness,but have you considered adding nissa and maybe a sword of the animist?

I considered NIssa, didn't even think of Sword, definitely going in there somewhere, but i would have to figure out what to replace

So i tinkered with your idea for a r/g deck, i figured you could use a whole lot of different angles, here's what i cam up with: http://www.mtgvault.com/coeurly/decks/undergrowth-counters-copy/
you could also add a sword of the animist but with nissa and 26 lands i think you should be well off, the avatar of the resolute needs to be in there, also i considered servant of the scale, to be sacced as a blocker and shifted on the champion. you could also drop red and go white green counters, which would unlock dromokas command, anafenza kin tree spirit and valorous stance to protect your massive creatures. i added rot shambler as a wicked little threat that needs to be dealt with early, i also thought about replacing the hierarch with the new blisterpods, which leave an eldrazi that can be sacrificed for mana, wich would serve multiple uses. Think about it and then give me your thoughts on that ( here's the white version: http://www.mtgvault.com/coeurly/decks/undergrowth-counters-copy-2/ the numbers here aren't tweaked yet but just to give you a general idea)

I didn't even think of servant of the scale, thats a pretty baller card for what im trying to accomplish with this deck he'll most likely end up replacing hierarch while honored leaves the picture completely, im also going to completely cut beastcaller savant in exchange for avatar of the resolute. And on the matter of white, it would definitely be worth it for the access to more fetch lands and dramokas command/valorous stance, but i dont think anafenza really has a place here considering shes double white, the only thing that should be double is green considering red is only in their for shaman of the great hunt, atarka's command and the fetch, so i will most likely add white, but the only way ill be able to access it is through fetch, or canopy vista (or maybe battlefield forge). Other than that the only things that i didnt like about your copy's was rot shambler , for what he does rot shamber is not worth even the 2 mana, as his ability only benefits from your creatures dying, this means thaty for several turns after you play him he'll only be a 1/1 blocker and is too slow for this.

Btw, thanks for actively contributing to this deck, gave me a lot of new ideas and really helped it come together

The rotshamble was an addition if you cut the hierarch and go blisterpod for mana,but I can see your point. That looks like One hell of a nasty Deck to go up against. You could consider adding collected company,but then you'd have to play One more Land and with that many spells you might Not Hit anything.swell of growth seems to be a Bit weak considering you play atarka's command and dromoka's command. You could cut them for different spells,like spot removal in form of wild slash, you coul also consider playing alesha who smiles at death or yasova,both would have great synergy with the deck. Yasova can get rid of nasty blockers while alesha could get back almost everything. Saying that how do you feel about a den protector or two,which can get you back almost anything,goes through their defenders with enough counters and is green instead of red,also he comes with a +1/+1counter. Highly recommend that,I would exchange swell for two protectors. I also thought about the retreats,and I feel that 2 may be a little much, seeing as turn 3 you almost always want to play undergrowth or a nissa.I would also play one sword of the animist main,and exchange it for slab hammer in grindy games. But that is something you'd have to test out seeing if you have enough creatures and so on.

For the sideboard I would highly recommend jaddi offshoot against atarka burn and red deck wins type of decks cause he takes up one removal and gives you lifepoints,also the 3 toughness are decent for blocking. Also feed the clans, I love the dragonhunter against Abzan and eldrazi, also control should not be a problem. Maybe have one atarka one dromoka and one vaporize stance in the board to load up on depending on what you're up against.

Glad I could help you with that, it's always easier to build a deck with two brains. That said I would love to hear your thoughts on my landfall deck if you have the time :)

i've definitely been wanting to remove swell of growth but can't think of something to replace it with, its going out now, and den protecter will be replacing Atarka, who is good, but not good enough for mainboard, i'll probly also cut one canopy vista so i can put in one sword, though like you said, sword of the animist wouldn't be very good in long games as i would quickly run out of basics to fetch, so if it looks like the matches are going to be long Slabhammer will switch to mainboard, I've also discussed Anafenza, Kin Tree Spirit with a friedn of mine and he thinks she would be good also, though i dont know if she will end up mainboard or sideboard, and by using her ill have to shift my mana around a little

And i'll definitely go check out your landfall deck, its always nice to get an outside opinion on a deck

now it looks nice. The only fear i have now is that you have not enough lands. and i did like the one off atarka. If you decide to add anafenza i would take out the retreats for her. So the only thing i would change now is:
+1 canopy
+2 anafenza
-2 retreat
-1 atarka's command maybe or maybe an undergrowth champ.

Everything else makes this one hell of a strong naya deck ;)

Don't mind saying that I'm jealous of anyone who pulled 2 Gideon...people who don't have an answer to him are losing games to him. He shines best in an Ally deck, but as you pointed out, his -4 is pure value in Standard, period. He'd be stronger in your deck if he put counters on, but a universal +1/+1 buff is nothing to sneeze at, especially (as you likewise pointed out) once you've got thopters in the air.
