Hello everybody! I'm just going to preface this post with this fact: I've played MTG for years and years, but I've never really played Standard before, it has always been casual, whatever goes type stuff. I'm not looking to be crazily competitive, beating down the best of the best decks, but I do want something that at least has the possibility of holding its own. Additionally, I didn't want to buy a bunch of cards that were just going to rotate out in a matter of months. And, of course, I mainly just want to have fun.
So, I decided to throw something together using a card that I always thought could play interestingly, but I haven't really seen used too much, Druids' Repository.
Basically, the idea I came up with is to hopefully get the Repository out as quickly as possible and then use a lot of dispensable creatures and attack like crazy to get out some really big stuff, really quickly.
Here's the deck. (Ignore the sideboard, it's just other ideas I was working with)
Ideal play would probably be something like this:
T1: Forest, Birds
T2: Forest, Young Wolf, Strangleroot Geist
T3: Land, Repository, Attack (+2 on Repo), Repo
T4: Land, Geist, Attack w/everything (+4/Repo), Avacyn/Griselbrand
I also have some Thatcher Revolts in there, for some big mana swings with multiple Repositories out. As well as some other creatures that make it hard to block, so I don't have to worry so much about blindly attacking with everything (including the Birds). And, lastly, I have Garruk Relentless in there for big creature tutoring and easy creature generation and the single Primal Surge in there just for fun.
At this point I'm sitting just above 60 cards, and I'm not sure what else to add/remove. Like I said, I've never played Standard before, so any insight would be great.
Thanks!
