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

Deck Description

The flavor to the deck is pretty plain.
Unless you're into Green!!

There is an accidental splash of White, making it 0.5% Selesnya, but NO! I won't play along the with the guilds! Never!

Prepare for lots of savagery in the 'How to Play' Section.

How to Play

WHAT?! Okay, don't mind me with the ferocity, just getting into character.

CREATURES!!!!

Elder of Laurels - Don't look down on this fellow who offers you a handful of flowers, because somehow these flowers turn your creature into AN UNSTOPPABLE JUGGERNAUT! (Unless of course Doom Bladed or Arrested)

Fangren Firstborn - When he attacks, all your other creatures suddenly realize that there is so much more in life TO GNAW UNTO! - 4 drop for a 4/2, when it attacks, all your attacking creatures receive a +1/+1 counter. Since this is a Token Flood deck, feel free to dream and imagine.

Mycoloth - Crowd Control! Your opponent calls for a pause! No more Tokens! Sure. His/her plead is answered, Mycoloth puts all those tokens into its stomach, and SHITS 2 TIMES THE TOKENS PER TURN! - 5 drop for 4/4 with devour 2, it produces saproling tokens at twice the amount of +1/+1 counters it holds.

Nest Invader - 2 drop for this cute little basket carrier! That comes along with a 0/1 baby Eldrazi, for TAPPING AND SACRIFICING!!! (GROWING RANKS!!!! PARALLEL LIVES!!!!!)

Pentavus - 7 drop for a 5/5? No, technically it's a 0/0 with 5 +1/+1 counters. BUT!!! YOU CAN REMOVE THE COUNTERS AND PUT THIS CUTE LITTLE THING CALLED PENTAVITE ON THE FIELD! It's a 1/1 that can be attached back to Pentavus. But you can also make use of Parallel Lives and Growing Ranks to populate the Pentavites before placing them back. In a way, it's infinite growth.

Signal Pest - Look! It's a Corn Field! BRING 'EM SAPROLINGS! PENTAVITES! ELDRAZI BABIES AND spawns??!! It's DINNER TIME!!!!!!


ARTIFACT!!!!!!

Spawning Pit - 2 drop, sacrifice a creature to place a counter on this artifact. {1}: Remove 2 charge counter on this artifact, put a 2/2 Spawn Creature on the battlfield. SPAWN?! WTH IS A SPAWN!?! I DON'T KNOW! BUT LET THEM POPULATE! THEN EAT THEM! THEN POPULATE!!!!


ENCHANTMENTS!!!

Asceticism - If you have been following my recipes, you should know this card is like a gem to me. It protects my dear creatures from mean Blue Bounce spells, Black removals, White Controls, Red Burns. Dirty tricks from non-green mages... Hmph!

Awakening Zone - Nest Invader can't keep fetching little ELDRAZI BABIES! SO WE GET HEDRON-SHAPED MONUMENTS TO DELIVER DAILY BABIES!!!!

Beastmaster Ascension - attack 7 times after casting. AND WATCH YOUR CREATURES GET CONTRACTED WITH RABIES!!! WATCH AS YOUR 1/1 SAPROLINGS BECOME 6/6 AND PUNCH YOUR OPPONENT IN THE FACE! CHEW AND DEVOUR HIS/HER FLESH TO THE VERY BONE!! PREDATION!!! PREDATION OF A SAPROLING!!!!

Growing Ranks - Some tokens don't come in a constant flow, so It's important to make this little guys grow out of each other just like fungus and jellyfishes.

Parallel Lives - NOT SO FUNNY NOW HUH!?!?!4 PARALLEL LIVES = 16 TIMES THE TOKEN FOR EACH ENTERING THE FIELD!!! MY MIND IS BLOWN!!!!!


INSTANT

Druid's Deliverance - Even a beast needs to calm down and look around for awhile, to see if there is a need to nullify damage for the turn... AND THEN GROW ANOTHER LITTLE GUY!!!!

Flash Foliage - When Life gives you an attacking creature to block, YOU SEND DOWN AN INNOCENT 1/1 SAPROLING TO BLOCK THAT LITTLE SHIT!!! THEN YOU DRAW A CARD!!! (Saproling token doubles with parallel lives, so you get an extra saproling if the blocking doesn't require it)

Wrap in Vigor - In case of Day of Judgment, Supreme Verdict or Blasphemous Act, please use Wrap in Vigor.


SORCERY.....

Beacon of Creation - 4 drop to summon X Insect Tokens, where X is the number of Forest you control. GET THOSE LITTLE BUGS OUT NOW!

Triumph of the Hordes - With Beastmaster Ascension and Asceticism = GG.

Deck discussion for Swarm! Seriously! Just Swarm!!

Holy Shit, this has to be the best How to Play section I have ever read. I want to spend the $38.76 just so I can play this deck and troll the fuck (excuse my French) out of my friends. This is awesome. If MTGvault still had a top deck section this one would be there. Great Job.

You know if you wanted to you could add Bioshift, which would allow you to move counters onto any creature you wanted, but the deck is awesome the way it is.

Hehe! Thanks for the appreciation! Gotta get into the game with passion!
Casual and fun, that's my aim, keeping it budget! Keeping it flavorful!

Bioshift would be nice, but the deck's main focus is Tokens. Fangren Firstborn just happens to be a real insane martyr! Haha!
:D

Heehee! The desire to swarm and flood tokens really overtook me when I was crafting this recipe.

My other recipes have quirky descriptions too, well, some of them. Most of them? I don't know, check them out if you will! :D

Ahhh! I appreciate the suggestion, I'm aware of cards like this out there (Not all of them)
But still, I'm playing on a budget. I prefer several decks with low cost :)

I love token decks!!! Usually I play selesnia tokens because of all the extra token generators like Thraben doomsayer, gather the townsfolk and all that, but this is a really freaking awesome deck!!! Also loved the description haha reminded me of those commercials on tv heard there like, "but wait there's more!!" Haha good job:)

Hehe! Thanks!!

Selesnya has too much Centaurs, Erm... I don't know, humanoids? I prefer Plant-like creatures
A token deck that focuses more on Green than the influence of White :)

Btw, gotta show my other decks some love too! :)
