Description

{"ops":[{"insert":"Note on Laands: Land drops are very important in this deck. There are 38 lands, which is a little low. However, both Oliphunt and Generous Ent have their respective land cycling for only 1-mana. These are not ramp, but at such a low cost they can be considered lands, at least for the purpose of making a land drop each turn.\n\nNote on Tutors: Woodland Bellower cant fnd most of the big hitters, but it can put Fierce Empath direct into play, who then triggers to fetch cards like Craterhoof Behemoth at no further cost or counterable cast.\n"}]}
