I’m really tempted to build a mono green token deck that includes doubling season, primal vigour and ceaterhoof behemoth. But finding a good commander is taking a while.
If you're planning on having any X-cost finishers or planning on really flooding the board with large creatures, there are worse choices than Jaheira, Friend of the Forest.
A very (VERY) slight upside is that it would also give you access to a background if you wanted. Master Chef would probably make the most sense; Cloakwood Hermit would probably be the second-most relevant. Neither are great, but having unfettered access to a 3-mana dump spell later in the game isn't bad.
@tapandrollgames That’s actually a really nice idea. I just need to focus on having reasonable token generation and buffing to go wide and slam. Plus it means my ramp gets an excellent boost :)
Yeah, the only way it would not be a good idea is if you already have too much ramp and no pay-offs. The classic Green conundrum of "ramp-to-nothing". But if you can find a couple spells with variable costs/kickers/etc., it can make a lot more sense. Some artifact bombs might also fit into the deck strategy to various extents (Emrakul, Blightsteel Colossus, Ulamog, Hangarback Walker, Walking Ballista, Orochi Hatchery).
