Deck of the Day: Mono-Green Aggro (Theros Standard)

Creatures (36)

Lands (24)

Sideboard

This is your pretty standard big green monsters deck.  With basically 40 creatures if you include the Mutavaults the strategy is to just keep throwing creatures on the battlefield and turn them sideways.  The deck has a very solidly progressive curve but the huge beasts like Kalonian Hydra and Polukranos quickly turn the game in your favor.  And with so many green mana symbols coming out devotion is used to full effect by Reverent Hunter and the green God Nylea.  If you like decks that just beat face then this is definitely the one for you.

Theros Spoilers – Gift of Immortality, Reverent Hunter

Gift of Immortality Reverent Hunter

Here’s two interesting cards…

The flavor of Gift of Immortality is amazing and shows that even an immortal can be vulnerable for a short period.  If you see your opponent playing with immortal shenanigans remember you have until the enchantment returns to it at the end step to deal it a final death.

Reverent Hunter on the other hand is just a good green beater that shows off the new devotion mechanic.  In a very green centered deck he has the ability to enter play with a whack load of extra +1/+1 counters.  Too bad he doesn’t have any natural evasion.
