Deck Description

An attempt at a Mono-Green Tooth and Nail Deck.

The strategy to win with this deck is to basically outrun your opponent in mana production and quickly cast big threats that either can't be blocked or hinder your opponent while hacking away at his life.
Basically you can cast all the game winning creatures as well just by themselves but when you want to execute the main strategy it would be as follows:

1. Make a lot of Mana
2. Use TaN to get Regal Force and Deranged Hermit into play to draw cards and also get Myojin of Life's Web in your hand.
3. Play the Myojin and play all the big creatures you hopefully drew from the combo.

NOTE: Cloudposts are used over Urzatron in this build due to taking up less space and the coming-into-play-tapped being less of an issue since you only need one colour and a lot of other cards (apart from lands) also produce mana



Living Hive: Fatty, creates creatures for Regal Force, Mycoloth etc.

Regal Force: draw, combo with Deranged Hermit or Avenger of Zendikar

Thorn Elemental: Fatty, unblockable

Tornado Elemental: Fatty, unblockable, defense against flyers

Llanowar Elves: mana acceleration

Elvish Piper: allows to play cheap fatties early on, potentially allows for mutliple fatties later on

Fauna Shaman: can get you combo pieces or can turn drawn weenies into fatties in the late game, can put Genesis or Vengevine into the graveyard

Eternal Witness: returns needed creatures or spells

Genesis: returns lost creatures from graveyard to hand, combo with Eternal Witness

Sakura-Tribe Elder: mana acceleration

Wall of Roots: early blocker, mana acceleration

Panglacial Wurm: Fatty, playable from library

Myojin of Life's Web: allows to play Fatties (and other creatures) without paying their costs

Deranged Hermit: creates creatures, carddraw in combo with Regal Force

Vernal Bloom: Mana Acceleration

Living Wish: searches needed creatures from the Sideboard

Sylvan Scrying: searches Cloudposts, Deck Thinning

Tooth and Nail: ...

Kodama's Reach: Mana Acceleration, Deck Thinning


The Sideboward is basically just a collection of creatures that fit into the scheme of the deck (basically loads of mana and land, as well as creature creation) and can be swapped in as wanted. It also contains copies of the cards that are parts of synergyíes and combos to be fetched with Living Wish.

Avenger of Zendikar: Combo with Regal Force

Elvish Piper: (see above)

Living Hive: (see above)

Regal Force: (see above)

Vengevine: potentially free haste fatty

Vigor: prevents damage to your creatures

Terastodon: targeted removal

Haze Frog: can prevent damage from a massive creature army

Mycoloth: can create armies of creatures with a few tokens from other cards (e.g. Living Hive)

Eternal Witness: (see above)

Genesis: (see above)

Acidic Slime: attack discouragement as well as targeted removal

Seedborn Muse: Defence against big threats

Woodfall Primus: targeted removal, potentially usable twice
