Topic: Token/Counter MonoGreen - Please help? - Casual [Opinion]

I'm relatively new to deck building and to this site, so I greatly value any opinions and advice you can provide me with
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!

Hey

Your deck seems pretty expensive. Also i dont like to have 20 different creatures. Try to get a balance between 1,2 and x mana-cost creatures. If you draw seven cards and can't do anything in turn 1 and 2 it will get hard for you

maybe try to get some 1 mana elf into the deck which give you mana or can untap your forests. Also one Planeswalker is always risky becuase there will be games where you dont draw him

Best Regards

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,-
