Thank you for your reply
I've updated the list with your advice in mind.
There are now 2 planeswalkers and less different kind of creatures. There might still be too many but i'm not sure yet what creatures are the most effective in this deck. Suggestions of what to take out, put in, or change the amounts of are of course very welcome
I do think I lost a a lot of power with some of the mana expensive cards that I removed so I tried to make up for that with cheaper creatures that I can make stronger, however i am still missing a useful 1cmc creature.
I haven't added the mana elves because I don't like being short on mana if an opponent removes my creatures, but I did put more fetch land cards in. Hopefully this will work as well?
I've also removed some cards other than creatures to make carddraw more consistant for things that make my tokens more useful like "Quest for Renewal" and "Beastmaster Ascension"
And yes, it does look expensive, but I barely indexed any of my cards so luckely I already own a couple of the expensive ones. When a card really fits I can always use a proxy and save up for the card, however most cards don't go over $5,- and none reach the card price max. of $20,-

Topic: SpittingCrux - Please help? - Casual [opinions] (0 replies, posted in Decks and Deckbuilding)
I'm relatively new to deck building and to this site, so I greatly value any opinions and advice you can provide me with .
Deck is based on Primalcrux, Spitting Image and Parallel Lives.
I would like this deck to work efficiently and quick, it needs some adjustments for that to work I think.
- With Sakura-Tribe Elder and Harrow I hope to have 6-7 mana in turn 4.
Sakura gives me a body that will lend green mana to Primalcrux and makes my Khalni Hydra cheaper, it's also a nice target for a Rite of Replication. I choose Harrow above Skyshroud Claim because i can use it to search for the islands. Land that i sacrifice for harrow is retrievable with Life from the Loam.
- Seek the Horizon gives me three landcards in my hand. I like this for Spitting Image.
- Oracle of Mul Daya more land! I just wonder if this card is really helpful...?
- Eternal Witness brings back my cards that I tossed with Harrow, Spitting Image and dredgen of Life from the Loam. She also gives 2 green mana to my crux and can retrieve creatures in a pinch.
- Giant Adephage, Spitting Image, Rite of Replication make the heavy tokens and Parallel Lives dubbles them.
I splash with 2 islands and 1 Flooded Grove (I only need 2 blue mana for Rite of Replication). I wonder if this is enough?
I'm also looking to see if I should put in more special land like Rogue's Passage, Simic Growth Chamber, Ghost Quarter, etc.
I'm also wondering if some cards from my sideboard should be put into the main board and if the numbers of all the cards are right this way.
Any form of advice would be very much appreciated!

This deck is my first try at mono green.
I would like this deck to be fun in multiplayer (probably about 2-5 players), if it works well in duals then that would be a nice bonus. I don't mind adjusting the sideboard for that.
Of course I am willing to buy new cards for this deck, but since my budget isn't to big it would be nice if these cards are usable on it's own or in other decks as well. I live in Holland so the prices for the cards here can be quite different, feel free to shout any suggestions. If I HAD to put an estimate on it though i would say no more than $20, for a card and not to let that happen to often
Don't forget to read the note i posted with the deck, it explains some of the thought proces I had with choosing some of the cards.
Thank you for looking!
