In case you don't care too much for the deck techs, games start at 7:49. I however enjoyed the breakdown of the changes that were made between this deck and the original.
Going through that whole game worrying about Liliana 15 minutes in with Bramblecrush in hand is giving me stress. Especially when he blows 2 Primal Commands on top/shuffle and then witnesses one back rather than just blow her up. Does he think Bramblecrush is a 4-mana stone rain?
I’m really late in finding this, but just wanted to say that I am very fond of this deck. Green’s my favorite color, but strangely I’m more of a control/denial player (blue’s a close second) so I enjoy any deck exploring this side of it. Plow Under is my favorite green spell, and it was a joy to see quick scoops from your opponent once it makes an appearance.
Thanks for the video. I just ran this deck (or a very similar one) at my LGS. Now I only went 1-2, but my matches were great and I got a lot of ooos and ahhhs from people watching my games. The star was Plow Under! What a card! This is a great budget deck! Thanks so much!
I built a mono g devotion deck based on your budget deck awhile back and put in Plow under and Stampeding Serow. Plow under is one of my favorite cards to play. Oh it feels so good! From what I’ve noticed, the card draw in the devotion deck allows for you to not stall out after dumping your hand like it seems this deck can do and Stampeding Serow has more targets to bounce, elvish visionary, wistful selkie, eternal witness, Hornet Queen, thragtusk, and Craterhoof if need be.
Would be pretty sweet if you ramped into Primeval Titans so you can search out Ghost Quarters. Mono Green Ponza. But that wouldn't be budget friendly :(
6:14 "...which will eventually overwhelm our opponent with little flying deathtouch bees". Lol. Comments like this is what makes already great videos amazing. Keep it up!
Awwwwwe ... the moments when you are in control and your opponents suddenly draws exactly what they need and you draw only land after lands. I DON'T miss those days ... at least I am not the only one who has such bad luck so many times. I really enjoy your videos and I am thinking on restarting in mtgo. Keep up the good work.
How would Gaea's revenge work as a finisher? Can't be countered, protected from most of removal(bar maelstrom pulse and beast within. Are there any other common modern removal that hits it?), is big, fast and ends games. Also, Avanger of Zendikar could gain from those lands and acid mosses, but you'd probably need more fetching and less sprawls. Lastly, if you want to be cute and/or play hipster, Weatherseed Treefolk could be the jawdropper you need.
Why didn't i notice that the first time... I just threw it out of an EDH list i had, so it seems that i fucked up along the way. Well, no harm done. Thanks for spotting that.
1:02:20 Seth's best impression of an aging southern blues musician who just had a long day and now hears that the late night act just cancelled so he has to fill in a double.
Well...that was awesome. I've always thought that green could only be control if it used land destruction. And it turns out that there's potential to be had...
The attack was weird enough that I felt like something would go wrong, but considering how bad that game was going, probably should have just tried it anyway.
I think for fighting black decks, Obstinate Baloth might be better in the SB vs black decks. Another life gainer, plus dumping one when opp plays Lilli is awesome.
Bravo, Seth, that late game 1 against Death and Taxes was a textbook case of playing to your outs. Guess this is more proof that the Super League performance was not a fluke :>
I have an idea to help protect the deck from those games where you don't find a win con. You could swap out the mystics for birds of paradise and take out nykthos and a forest for two kessig wolf runs. That wouldn't put it too far outside of budget range.
Seth I think it's time you make a sick Legacy or Vintage land destruction deck. Turn 1 dark ritual > Rain of Tears/Sinkhole then Army Ants. Black Red land destro do itttt
Limited Resources is a strong card in the right build here because it's a lock piece by itself. Also Raze is probably better than Army Ants even though it's only a 1 turn deal.
I need to ask, why do I always see creeping corrosion over fracturing gust? For an extra mana you get instant speed artifact and enchantment removal that ALSO puts you pretty far on life.
Colgate Lampinen In any normal deck it's pretty bad to pay an extra mana but if you're looking to cast primal command on turn 4, it's probably not that hard to cast gust either.
maybe add a Hurricane in the main or sideboard. You make enough mana that you can do a spite hurricane for a draw in games that you're losing. And you can just win with it too!
I think this deck could use a Boseiju or two, either main or sideboard, to help resolve those Plow Unders and Primal Commands against counterspell-heavy decks
Land destruction is my favorite budget deck because a high dollar deck usually can run without lands. I know it sounds mean but it's not fun to lose to tarmogoyfs and cards you couldn't hope to afford.
Could we get away with running one or two World Breakers in this deck? It's a big creature that eats a land, and it's colorless, which helps against the Mirran Crusader we ran into.
I think it was fine to side in 2 naturalize for 2 STE against Death&Taxes to get rid of that obnoxious Aether Vial and it works fine with golem tokens too
Sadness of needing fetch lands to make the deck perfect. Really wish wizards would just make them uncommon, they make magic a better game and everyone should get to play with them.
And thinning the deck of land Seth. If you have no lands you can't draw them :p I want a common or uncommon land with: "Tap, sac. Search your deck for a copy of a basic land you currently have in play and put it onto the battlefield." Could also have tap, add 1 to mana pool. but that may be too good.
They sure can be, Melissa. There's this nightmare story of a guy in the U.S. accidentally doing that when getting out of bed in the morning and damaging some part of it that then caused his scrotum to swell to the size of, I kid you not, a medicine ball (they ended up weighing over 60 kilograms). After years of misery he found an empathetic doctor who'd remove them for free since, y'know, the USA's healthcare system is a piece of shit and he could otherwise not afford that 13-hour surgery. Unfortunately, he was still overweight after this from years of depression and died a while later due to complications from that and his diabetes. Anyway, point being that they're vulnerable as fuck and even something as seemingly innocent as bruising them by accident can fuck up your life :(
I liked Cloudthresher because it also dealt two damage to players. You could Primal Command to gain a bunch of life and slowly green burn out your opponent. I mean who expects green burn?
“ we know what our opponent is drawing for the next two turns… LANDS (evil laugh)”.
You are a wicked man, love your show.
Plow Under {3}{g}{g}
Sorcery
Target player scoops it up.
Word.
My God it's almost 1 in the morning and I am sitting here watching people get locked out of lands by a $100 deck. Only the best of content as always.
solotopp question: Do you think 100 dollars is a lot or not much?
That moment when you realize your opponent is on Oops all Lilianas.
Dillon Baca that's what tormod is for

"Nothing Gives me Joy like blowing up opponents' land"
I always knew you got me Saffron.
Going through that whole game worrying about Liliana 15 minutes in with Bramblecrush in hand is giving me stress. Especially when he blows 2 Primal Commands on top/shuffle and then witnesses one back rather than just blow her up. Does he think Bramblecrush is a 4-mana stone rain?
Monkey Flipping I know he mentioned how it could kill Jace but then failed to realize that it could also kill Liliana.
Because he trying to kill graveyard lingering souls and shit
Who hurt you?
Spells cast off of lands ;p
Junior Yang I love decks like this.
Tron, probably
Yeah, Tron. Our love can overcome that though
Tron and eldrazi
puts in Bramblecrush to kill planeswalkers - uses Primal Command to kill a planeswalker while holding Bramblecrush >.
This may be the most beautiful deck I've ever seen.

Ssstttooopppp keeepiiinnnggggg one landers
With a 20-land deck no less.
when you have 3 mana dorks its not the worst time to keep a one lander
Paul Anderson yea but you know Olive if loves a reason to keep 1 landers and it usually turns out bad when "He" does it.
why is "he" in quotes?
CSDragon To denote tone?
I love this deck Seth, whether it works or not it brings a smile to the repetitious days of stress that seem never-ending.
I recited the beginning with Seth. I think I'm in too deep.
Heeeeeeelloooo, everyone!
You've barely scratched the surface.
I do this too!
I recite it when I'm not even watching him.
@@brewbrewbrewthedeck4138 shut your mouth bitch
Thanks for the video. I just ran this deck (or a very similar one) at my LGS. Now I only went 1-2, but my matches were great and I got a lot of ooos and ahhhs from people watching my games. The star was Plow Under! What a card! This is a great budget deck! Thanks so much!
Absolutely love the graphic on this one!!
Yeah, it's one of the best ones.
"Tibalt....TIBALT IN MODERN" -Seth, 2018
I built a mono g devotion deck based on your budget deck awhile back and put in Plow under and Stampeding Serow. Plow under is one of my favorite cards to play. Oh it feels so good!
From what I’ve noticed, the card draw in the devotion deck allows for you to not stall out after dumping your hand like it seems this deck can do and Stampeding Serow has more targets to bounce, elvish visionary, wistful selkie, eternal witness, Hornet Queen, thragtusk, and Craterhoof if need be.
This deck reminds me of Stupid Green Deck from the late 90s. It was so fun.
I think a Reclamation Sage would have been good, with the bounce shenanigans, and good against aether vial
You post a looot of content, why is it all so good?
Would be pretty sweet if you ramped into Primeval Titans so you can search out Ghost Quarters. Mono Green Ponza. But that wouldn't be budget friendly :(
Bryan Tan Cloudthresher would have been fine. Nobody expects green burn.
Or you can just have the titans tutor out Ramunap Ruins and Sun Scorched Deserts. Welcome to standard suckers.
Bryan Tan Well if you're on that plan valakut and mountains should be stronger. And we all know that Deck already.
JonaxII And abandon the land destruction plan? Never
6:14 "...which will eventually overwhelm our opponent with little flying deathtouch bees". Lol. Comments like this is what makes already great videos amazing. Keep it up!
Plow Under has to be one of my favorite cards ever. It gets rid of an opponent's lands AND screws with their draws. So much value!
Hey Seth - the CardKingdom link doesn't work. And do you have a link to the Goldfish decklist? Thanks
www.mtggoldfish.com/articles/budget-magic-100-60-tix-mono-green-land-destruction-modern
I'd love to see the opponent's Tibalt list. That's some spicy shit there. (And I'd love to try itXD)
Awwwwwe ... the moments when you are in control and your opponents suddenly draws exactly what they need and you draw only land after lands. I DON'T miss those days ... at least I am not the only one who has such bad luck so many times. I really enjoy your videos and I am thinking on restarting in mtgo. Keep up the good work.
seth you really do make an insane amount of content, thanks for everything you do, you keep me interested in the game of magic
Thanks!
12:15 That pure evil laugh of enjoyment, exquisite!
29:30 This laugh was more along the lines of, "Oh wow so that's what boobs look like."-childish glee.
Laugh appraiser on duty.
pretty strong deck!! that last oponent was a major troll running miran crusader main board
How would Gaea's revenge work as a finisher? Can't be countered, protected from most of removal(bar maelstrom pulse and beast within.

Gaea's Revenge is a cool card. Weatherseed Treefolk has the downside of not being Modern legal ;)
Why didn't i notice that the first time... I just threw it out of an EDH list i had, so it seems that i fucked up along the way. Well, no harm done. Thanks for spotting that.
1:02:20
Seth's best impression of an aging southern blues musician who just had a long day and now hears that the late night act just cancelled so he has to fill in a double.
I need to see more decklists for u/r hollow one I’m so intrigued
I like how Saffron was giggling and cackling all the way through while playing this deck hahaha
your decks look like good templates for commander decks
Well...that was awesome. I've always thought that green could only be control if it used land destruction. And it turns out that there's potential to be had...
Probably my all time favorite deck.
with the plow unders and the witness/command lock, wouldn't you consider this almost a mono-green "infinite turn" deck?
This may just be the funniest deck I've seen
Prooooobably better known as Land destruction lock!
We have to see this as "against the odds"!
40:00 why not block young pyromancer with arbor elf? had a few opportunities to
The attack was weird enough that I felt like something would go wrong, but considering how bad that game was going, probably should have just tried it anyway.
Bugged primal command art in the deck tech?
Yeah, that was weird.
I think for fighting black decks, Obstinate Baloth might be better in the SB vs black decks. Another life gainer, plus dumping one when opp plays Lilli is awesome.
Never realized how weird wildebeests looks when it's written out...
As soon as I saw it I knew seth would be playing it.
Lol, Seth screaming about the nuts
Another MTG Goldfish deck to build.
Seth should do commentary on some Pro matches, he's so hyped up
deck was sweet! And damping sphere is only like 0.10 tix online so that would be a great answer to storm :)
Yeah, being uncommon is awesome, makes it cheap and accessible.
We need to get Seth to play Bogles again. Then he can keep one landers without losing every time.
What a first game against Death and Taxes!
Bravo, Seth, that late game 1 against Death and Taxes was a textbook case of playing to your outs. Guess this is more proof that the Super League performance was not a fluke :>
Oh, just wait until tomorrow when I'll do something incredibly stupid and lose because of it :)
Tibalt in the wild!
John L I see you haven't found a tibalt deck in modern.
Louise Drake I just found it!
I have an idea to help protect the deck from those games where you don't find a win con. You could swap out the mystics for birds of paradise and take out nykthos and a forest for two kessig wolf runs. That wouldn't put it too far outside of budget range.
I love Plow Under. So UNDERrated!! Bahaha!
26:03 "This is the dream ... and an ooze!" hahaha
Best title card EVER.
I think you're forgetting Nicol Bolas with an uzi.
Seth I think it's time you make a sick Legacy or Vintage land destruction deck. Turn 1 dark ritual > Rain of Tears/Sinkhole then Army Ants. Black Red land destro do itttt
army ants lockdown! would not that be great?
king massephase army ants and crucible of worlds. Winter orb. There’s so many good combos
Limited Resources is a strong card in the right build here because it's a lock piece by itself. Also Raze is probably better than Army Ants even though it's only a 1 turn deal.
Is this deck worth buying as a first modern deck?
Diogo Domingos thanks brother i have some of the cards for 12 bolt already as well
You had me at plow under.
That match against Leonin Arbiter, jeez.
I need to ask, why do I always see creeping corrosion over fracturing gust? For an extra mana you get instant speed artifact and enchantment removal that ALSO puts you pretty far on life.
You answered your own question with "for an extra mana".
You're dead before turn 5 for Affinity.
Budget.
MTGGoldfish I guess I haven't checked the price of gust in a while so that makes sense.
Colgate Lampinen In any normal deck it's pretty bad to pay an extra mana but if you're looking to cast primal command on turn 4, it's probably not that hard to cast gust either.
OMG that thumbnail art. So aggressive
Blue red hollow one with tibalt on much abrew when?
maybe add a Hurricane in the main or sideboard. You make enough mana that you can do a spite hurricane for a draw in games that you're losing. And you can just win with it too!
I'd shove in a few Desert of the Indomitable, you could cycle it in the late game and it's budget friendly
Obstinate Baloth seems like a better card vs black than colossus, and it's good vs aggro, too. Maybe -1 Thrag, -1 Chameleon, +2 Baloth ?
Might be worth considering putting a couple of Tangle Golems in the sideboard to deal with Pro Green Threats.
41:00 yes is rough from rough is yes has to be one of my favorite sethisms
Guttural Response needs more love in decks like this..
TheBongSauce I have a playset in all sideboards of my green/red combo decks
Why not go 2 and 2 with llanowar elves and the mystics? Gets around staticasters and similar removal
Me you and another person need to play in a SCG team event. We all play land destruction :) haha. Just troll people :) I’ll play it in legacy
Corbin Brown I'll take standard
Messing us up with the change to the intro card. Lol.
I think this deck could use a Boseiju or two, either main or sideboard, to help resolve those Plow Unders and Primal Commands against counterspell-heavy decks
Land destruction is my favorite budget deck because a high dollar deck usually can run without lands. I know it sounds mean but it's not fun to lose to tarmogoyfs and cards you couldn't hope to afford.
1:05:10 why didn't you play the utopia sprawl, and then play acid-moss?
Can we get the thumbnail as a 1080p background? It is glorious
Which cards would change without the annoying budget magic limitations?
might want to try wurmcoil either main or side to help deal with those crusaders, despite it being just a great card anyway.
Leave it to Seth to make Budget Mono-Green Prison
Please more of this deck.
deckstats.net/decks/103045/1054967-mono-green-control-august-4th- this the current list for this deck from the creator
At 17:45 why not get back a forest and play it to cast bramblecrush on liliana giving you 7 mana next turn for hornet queen?
Is Pithing Needle or Sorceror's Spyglass worth it here?
And the card kingdom link doesn't work
Huh, people actually click that? Good for the channel, I suppose.
why wouldn't they
The line at 15:30 was a bit strange, why not go bramblecrush Liliana into primal for e-wit/thragtusk next turn?
I think if our opponent gets the chance to flashback Lingering Souls we are potentially in trouble.
Could we get away with running one or two World Breakers in this deck? It's a big creature that eats a land, and it's colorless, which helps against the Mirran Crusader we ran into.
I think it was fine to side in 2 naturalize for 2 STE against Death&Taxes to get rid of that obnoxious Aether Vial and it works fine with golem tokens too
Isn't Wildebeests and Serow the same card? Why run 1-1 when just running 2 copies of 1 is the same thing?
what if you add harmonize for card draw? seems decent
Sadness of needing fetch lands to make the deck perfect. Really wish wizards would just make them uncommon, they make magic a better game and everyone should get to play with them.
Yeah, it's sort of funny since they are just for shuffling with Courser of Kruphix, but it would help.
And thinning the deck of land Seth. If you have no lands you can't draw them :p I want a common or uncommon land with: "Tap, sac. Search your deck for a copy of a basic land you currently have in play and put it onto the battlefield." Could also have tap, add 1 to mana pool. but that may be too good.
well now I want to dip my toe into modern
Seth, better known as "Seth, probably better known as SaffronOlive"
what would you sideboard for mirran crusader i wonder
Sat down so quick to watch the new Budget Magic I accidentally sat on my nuts! >_
RIP IN PEACE
Wow. I guess nuts are super inconvenient?
ErroneousClique So nothing happened?
They sure can be, Melissa.
There's this nightmare story of a guy in the U.S. accidentally doing that when getting out of bed in the morning and damaging some part of it that then caused his scrotum to swell to the size of, I kid you not, a medicine ball (they ended up weighing over 60 kilograms).

Unfortunately, he was still overweight after this from years of depression and died a while later due to complications from that and his diabetes.
Anyway, point being that they're vulnerable as fuck and even something as seemingly innocent as bruising them by accident can fuck up your life :(
ErroneousClique can I call it a nut draw?
Why was the only thing in Seth's sideboard game 1 a Tormad's Crypt?
No pithing needles for those lilys Seth?
Is there any reason you didnt use wild growth over Utopia sprawl would have saved a lot of the budget. It also helps out the ultra budget.
Wild Growth isn't legal in Modern, unfortunately :(
MTGGoldfish oh I didn't realize. That's a shame. Should have checked first
What's the name of the app you're using to play?
Magic Online
I liked Cloudthresher because it also dealt two damage to players. You could Primal Command to gain a bunch of life and slowly green burn out your opponent.
I mean who expects green burn?
Yeah, the original list had Cloudthresher, would have been sweet against that Lingering Souls deck.
So dirty... I LOVE IT!!!
