Paint it Green [PreDH]

[Oversoul]

The story of the awkward "Leprechaun Ward" archetype in the Old School '94 format is fascinating. It's a case worth studying. Of course, the archetype doesn't really scale into EDH and it would be silly to try, which is exactly where I come in. I am willing to be very silly. After compiling a list of cards taken from real Leprechaun Ward tournament decks, some cards that vaguely synergize with those cards, and a few of my own old favorites, I decided to make the whole thing PreDH too, just to really keep this concept from ever standing a chance.

By the way, I built this deck like a week ago, but I still haven't actually gotten to play it because I've been sick lately. Hoping that turns around soon here...

Tried this deck out last night. Although I was unsurprisingly outclassed, the deck did have a few tricks up its sleeves. In the end, I had a 10/10 Phytohydra that could swing with impunity against the all-green army of my last remaining opponent, but he got an infinite combo to pump up his own attackers and I lacked the numbers to block them all.
