Deck Description

There are several ways to make a Green Devotion deck; my interpretation on this deck style was to produce a ton of mana and use it to fuel hydras. I used cards like Leatherback Baloth to maximize the early game green devotion and then, Karametra's Acolyte to turn green devotion into mana.
This deck finishes one of two ways:

When your opponent has many small creatures it finishes by playing a Genesis Hydra with upwards of 25 mana in order to find and play Ezuri's Predation for free. This leaves you with a small army of 4/4's and one huge hydra to play with, while your opponent board is virtually wiped of creatures.

When your opponent favors the bigger creatures it finishes by using Hydra Broodmaster's monstrosity with a ton of mana to make several more substantial creatures and Nylea to give them Trample. For example, with 25 mana you would get 12 12/12's.

How to Play

Turn 1: Begin with either an Elvish Mystic or a Llanowar Elves

Turn 2: If you got an elf, play a Leatherback Baloth or Predatory Ooze. Otherwise play a Kalonian Tusker.

Turn 3: If you have four mana, play either Nylea, or an Acolyte depending on how aggressive your opponent is. If not, continue to grow your devotion with a Predatory Ooze or Leatherback Baloth.

Turn 4 and farther: Grow your mana with devotion or start one of the two finishing strategies.

Deck discussion for Green Devotion

I feel like with only 20 land you will get stcuk on three and never cast the acoloite to get your deck to go off.

Clooud thresher is your most narrow card, so i would say cut that for two more land. Probably nykthos shrine to nyx.
