I'd like to make a R/G Hate Bear deck. I don't want to do this because I think its the best deck, or the best hate bear deck. I Just like R/G Hate Bears.
The main draw to R/G is Simian and Elvish Spirit Guide(s). This gives to 8 on colour accelerators. With ancient tomb you have 12 ways to cast null rod on turn one before looking at solomoxen.
The main red bears are;
Magus of the Moon
Harsh Mentor
Sin Prodder
Tin Street Hooligan
Stingscourger
The main green bears are;
Ambush Viper
ThornWeild Archers
There is also
Phyrexian Revoker
These should Probably be auto includes,
Null rod x 4
Chalice of the Void
Trinisphere
Some cards worth considering are;
Artifact Mutation
Deathrite Shaman
Lightning Bolt (and/or)Dismember
Smuggler's Copter
Blood Moon
Mental Misstep
Cavern of souls
Any insight into cards I've missed would be great!
I'd like to use 4 Wasteland and 4 Ancient tomb. With Strip mine I have 9 off colour lands. If I have 8 guides and a 12 land fetch mana base I'll have 29 slots devoted to mana. That seems high, especially when everything has a casting cost of 2-3.
Does anyone have suggestions Insofar as which bears would have the greatest impact? Any thoughts on the best way to deal with the mana bloat? Anything I'm not thinking of that would be really great?
Thanks in advance,
John
