Cut 1 each of Gnarlid, Crystallization and Snake Umbra to try out 3 rancor.

Ethereal Armour is a fantastic addition too.

1. Add to (something) in a way that enhances or improves it; make perfect.
2. Add to or make complete.

Complimented means something else. FWIW

Snorri, the man reason I did not include Rancor was because of the space, but I don’t think it was necessarily correct to leave it out. Part of my thinking was that unlike in Infect and Stompy, this deck does not really plan on having creatures die often, so you rarely get to benefit from multiple uses of it. But even without getting multiple uses out of it, +2/+0 and trample for one green is strong, so the deck should probably include a few copies. I do think that the main reason to play it is for the trample, and once a creature has trample (either with Rancor or an Armadillo Cloak), the other copies of Rancor are significantly less effective. Anyway, I think it can definitely be included in place of a combination of Aura Gnarlids, Crystalizations, or Snake Umbra.

And to be honest, I completely forgot about Fertile Growth. It can definitely replace Wild Growth, or something else, depending on how much the mana base needs help. Thank you for pointing that out.

Pixie, I’m glad you like the UG deck too. From the brainstorming I’ve done with it (no pun intended), it seems like it may potentially be a viable deck. I’m really looking forward to testing this one out in particular.
