Description

{"ops":[{"insert":"Ramp up high (maybe even to infinity, with crystaline crawler and devoted druid), play small creatures and pump them up with bill`s activated ability, it is expensiv, but cost won´t be a problem. Landfall synergies are there too, atleast for counters. The colorless bounclands bounce themself to keep the landfall triggers runnig in the later stages of the game. Allstars like managorger Hydra shine bright with doubled counters and even pumped mana dorks become threats with time.\nWith higher budget some cards should be added. Consider vorinclex for counter tripling, ancient greenwarden, railway brawler, arwen weaver of hope, Vigor, tribute to the world tree, Kodama of the westtree and some of the stronger hydras. For lower budgets consider cutting something like Azusa lost but seeking , Toski (there is cheaper card draw out there), Virtue of strength, heroic intervention and some planeswalkers for they are quite useful but not necessary in general. Try to get starting hand with atleast two pieces of ramp, one one mana dork is perfect here, one creature that likes counters for an early threat, three to four lands and something like card draw, protection or even some removal, there isn´t that much in the deck though.\nCorepieces are creatures like fertilid, gyre sage and kami of whispered hopes for they like counters and ramp you, one mana dorks are particular favorites, with the joraga treespeaker in the spotlight as it allows you to curve into five mana turn three while having Bill out on the field. \nIn the first few turns play around Bills landfall ability, his doubling ability becomes more relevant when you can afford around 10-12- Mana to double twice and keep mana up to bluff or hold protection for your big threats.\nHave fun\n"}]}
