Description

{"ops":[{"insert":"I like to imagine Saprolings as Pikmin, and Nemata as Captain Olimar. Wandering around the woods pulling his expendable little helpers from the earth. Then, literally throwing them headfirst at larger scarier creatures to either chip away at the enemy's health or get eaten. \nThis deck makes saprolings, and gives you things to do with saprolings i.e. attacking, making mana, or sacrificing them. \nThe path to victory is through board control. Nemata's replacement effect keeps opponents creatures out of their graveyards. Forced sacrifices keeps things wide open whilst also making saprolings with Nemata's triggered ability. Cards like Slimefoot the stowaway, and poison-tip archer make killing saprolings as painful as letting them attack. \nThere is also a few Janky combos that can win on the spot if you have more cards in library than opponent has life. \n (utopia mycon/phyrexian altar/ashnods altar) + (zulaport cuthroat/slimefoot the stowaway/poison tip archer) + (liliana dreadhoard general/moldervine reclamation/smothering abomination) + saproling cluster\n"}]}
