I've looked around, and not really found much good advice. I'm wanting to build a G/W human populate deck. I could do without the humans, but I think they'd be good. (A la precinct captain  ) . Cards like:: Gather the Townsfolk Druids Deliverance Intangible Virtue Rootborn Defences Just not sure where to go. I could scrap human and add in Selesneya charm  , call of the conclave  and maybe Garruk, primal hunter  or armada worm  … help?

If you're gonna go Selesnya, I'd scrap the human concept. Populate can be a very effective mechanic...under the right circumstances. The problem is that your opponent won't just let you get away with whatever you want. They're trying to win, too, after all. I think the trick to populate is to survive long enough to get an army of creatures on your side. The cards you mentioned would work well, but here's a few more to consider: Growing Ranks  : Populate at your upkeep; the advantage is obvious Trostani, Selesnya's Voice  : Life gain and a way to populate Attended Knight  : 2/2 first strike, along with a token. Grove of the Guardian  : Land that can turn into an 8/8 token Wayfaring Temple  : Give it trample and it can bulldoze the enemy These are just ideas, though. I can't guarantee that they'll all work.

I ran a R/W token deck at my LGS and it did fairly well. Almost beat RWU a round. Went to game three. I would've won if I could've gotten to my token spells. Sided in Pithing Needle  against him to take care of his staticaster  . Had a problem with Predator Ooze and fast aggro. The guy that ran 'murica gave me props for the 7needle and suggested that I go Selesnya if I wanted to go with a token deck. 4 x wayfaring temple  4 x crusader of odric  2 x trostani, selesnya's voice  2 x armada wurm  4 x gather the townsfolk  4 x druid's deliverance  4 x rootborn defences  4 x selesnya charm  4 x call of the conclave 2 x oblivion ring  2 x growing ranks  2 x garruk, primal hunter  4 x sunpetal grove  2 x Guardian's Grove  5 x plains  5 x forest  Something like that I would imagine.

I'd like to fit in rancor  as well. I realise I didn't add the GW shockland. (Don't know the name of it.) Would mana dorks be good here? Or farseek  ?
