Hrm, good thoughts all around.
I did find I have several terramorphic expanses that I could toss in. Not a bad idea. Already have a couple cultivates which are pretty nice. I'm hoping inistrad brings back cultivate or something similar since those will be going out of standard at the end of the month. The other green land grab (can't remember it's name) is kinda crap IMO.
Quicksilver amulet will come in handy with more then the blight steel colossus, so that's definitely going in.
I went with primal bellow over giant growth since it has a little more potential and only costs one mana. I think overrun fills out the buffs nicely. Though it might not be a horrible idea to toss in more of each to bring up the count.
I don't really expect the colossus to show up all the time, but he's pretty brutal so it will be worth it when he does. I think the deck would fare OK without him though. I look at him as kinda the icing on the cake.

So many cards I wanted to put in that I had to cut, and even now I almost feel like I'm spreading too thin. Doesn't look like I'm going to get a chance to test before Friday. Looks like I'll be play testing at FNM smile

Hrm, just a few minutes ago I was thinking an export to CSV would be pretty handy.

Hey guys, magic newbie here in Atlanta, and I've already spent way too much on cards smile.
Found the site while looking for a good way to inventory the cards. I figured if I started before my collection got unwieldy then I would be able to keep track of it better. I really like the deck builder. I've been using it to piece together one of my first decks. All that's missing is an android app wink.

Hey guys I'm working on a deck and would like some thoughts on it. I've been playing Magic for about three weeks now. This is my second attempt at building a deck. Originally this deck was the NP: Rot From Within. It doesn't look much like the same deck anymore but I really liked the theme of the deck and think that I've kept to it pretty well.

Rot From Within is a mono green infect/pump deck. I enjoyed playing it out of the box. It became pretty obvious to me early on that it had WAY too many spells and not enough creatures. I kept winding up with a hand full of spells and nothing to cast them on. After a couple revs (more creatures, less spells, got some trample going) I took it to my first FNM. It performed half way decently, but the mana gods decided to smack me back down from a decent start and completely screw me for my last four games. Got to looking at cards and decided to rebuild it from scratch and to throw in black to turn up the awesome.

I haven't had a chance to play test this yet, so not sure how well the mana is going to go with this deck. Would love to hear comments or suggestions.
