Let's talk mono green:
Magic has been one of my favorite all time games to play ever since it was properly introduced to me in the summer of 2011. From the intro deck I bought when i was roughly 10/11, to hand me down cards from my cousin and finally the sight that was Moldgraf Monstrosity, I was hooked on Green, and by extension, the overall basis for a lot of my EDH deck building....playing bomb ass creatures.
My appreciation for the color has grown ever since. Even now, most of my assembled decks run green, and attempts to forego subterfuge, removal or counterspells, and goes straight for the jugular.
Yeva was my second commander deck constructed after Odric. I had an extensive pool of green cards that loved to be able to jump in at instant speed for some tricks, interesting interactions or a surprise pump from a Craterhoof on a swing. Since then, the deck has always managed to take shape in some form (originally being the shell for my current main mono green deck Rhonas fight club). I just made her again recently, and with the right components and support, really goes off without colorless spells or artifacts.
Green continues to provide great green legendaries to spice up my decks, adding their own twist to the green formula. Surrak and Goreclaw will always find a slot in mono green, and Rishkar and Gargos are excellent in utility and creature removal respectively. I hope eventually I'll be able to coalesce these creatures into a single deck and show everyone at the table to not mess with a mono color deck.
How has your experience with green faired? Do you love or despise the color? I'd like to hear from you and see what you have to say.
