Cucho´s Song... that's me... I did this trials right after I played with Haven but was too lazy to make the write ups... anyway here they are

Ok so I went for the Proliferate option, tops at 4 -Loxodon is hardly ever a 5 cmc spell- and tries to abuse Freyalise to ramp a bunch of 2 drops + Counters synergy.
The mana is decent IMO just 2 colors with Benalia as the most prohibitive casting cost spell, Tribunal + Baffling end as removal.. Baffling end could have being Prision realm and there should be at least 2 Nissas.
Chamber Sentry is a fun one cast it T1-T2 and growth it in the course of the game, buy him back if the stars align, Chamber Sentry lets you not run out to threats.

I really like this deck it can be fun and powerful I have played it on several events and I know how to pilot it properly, nothing too fancy as Kiora or as heavy on the PWs as Haven´s deck fun efficient.

I´m gonna give me self a 6 thus I think it is a solid pile.

Final Score

Heff´s Song


OK this deck... is a mess... I have no clue why Tamiyo or shimmer of possibility are even here... I think Heff´s wanted to try the Explore package as a way to make use of Sage and ultimate Song on the spot... who knows, its even missing our good old WGW to take advantage of all exploring, the 4 Dinos are also intriguing... Again Nissa should be here... some sort of removal or a way to dump your hand faster into the board... but this thing takes a while to get the engines going...
I dont want to pick to much on Heffs heart but man... I hate you for making me play this deck.

I will give you a coz it has lands and spells.



G1 vs WW

G2 vs Mono blue


G3 vs Orzhov stuff...

5. Barney
6. Heff

Lol, nice! I'm not sad about you not trying more

I had a comment there initially, that the thing I wanted to do was to pop Song via proliferate as a surprise move (having Dino or Sage already on the ground, put Song and the other one, and two lands), sort of trying to 'break' it actually in _some_ way. Guess the rest of the deck also has to work somehow for it all to have sense.

Is this contest dead?

Without willing victims judges, the contest is on the ropes.

I'll try finding time this weekend

Sorry for being late with judging.

I will play ten fast games per deck without testing them (a lot of mistakes incoming).

DaRkStAr Bioessence Hydra Deck:

1. Dimir Fliers (Song of Freyalise on 3 creatures, then I played Bioessence Hydra. Evolution Sage was now able to buff 4 guys) - Win
2. Simic Elementals (Song of Freyalise on 3 creatures again, then Nissa, Who Shakes the World and 7/7 Hydroid Krasis, next round Evolution Sage + and another Song of Freyalise with 8 units on board. Then i could ultimate Nissa, Who Shakes the World and this happened: https://i.imgur.com/6FLHIL3.jpg - Win
3. White Lifegain (Mana dorks into turn 3 Nissa, Who Shakes the World, Next round Kiora, Behemoth Beckoner, Vivien, Champion of the Wilds and Bioessence Hydra) - Win
4. RDW (Too fast) - Lose
5. Temur Elementals (Round 4 Nissa, Who Shakes the World into 10/10 Bioessence Hydra) - Win
6. Jund Sarkhan Masterless (6/6 Hydroid Krasis and 2 Bioessence Hydra on board into a Vivien, Champion of the Wilds) - Win
7. Mardu Hero (I kept a stupid hand.) - Lose
8. Azorius Fliers (Double Song of Freyalise on 3 units, then I could play the following creatures: Roalesk, Apex Hybrid, Bioessence Hydra, 5/5 Hydroid Krasis, but he had Sky Tether for my Roalesk, Apex Hybrid and Bioessence Hydra. I thought I will have enough to defend in the air with another Hydroid Krasis next round, but then he also played Sephara, Sky's Blade as a 9/9. After I killed it with 2 Hydroid Krasis, he got another Sephara, Sky's Blade) - Lose
9. Orzhov Vampires (mana screw) - Lose
10. Simic Midrange (I played some mana dorks, he countered my Roalesk, Apex Hybrid, next round 6/6 Hydroid Krasis , next round another Hydroid Krasis. He conceded) - Win

Win 6:4 Lose

Conclusion: Went pretty well (2 games could count as non games), the wins were very one-sided. Song of Freyalise was super clutch in some games. Definitely very fun deck to play.

Cucho Lambreta Selesnya Proliferate Deck:


1. Temur Elementals (T1 Chamber Sentry, T2 Song of Freyalise, T3 History of Benalia, T4 History of Benalia, T5 Growth-Chamber Guardian, Venerated Loxodon and another Growth-Chamber Guardian. He Conceded) - Win
2. Izzet Phoenix (Pelt Collector gets Shocked, Growth-Chamber Guardian gets Shocked. Chamber Sentry and Ajani, the Greathearted in play, Conclave Tribunal on Niv-Mizzet, Parun, But then he destroyed all the other creatures i played and he could play another Niv-Mizzet, Parun I couldn't deal with) - Lose
3. Bant Midrange (T1 Pelt Collector T2 Growth-Chamber Guardian, T3 Song of Freyalise, T4: History of Benalia and Huatli's Raptor, Then Time Wipe . But I succeeded to comeback with Growth-Chamber Guardians and History of Benalia - Win
4. Esper Control (He destroyed every creature i played, Growth-Chamber Guardian Comeback? Lilliana says no.) - Lose
5. Red Elementals (Big Chandra destroyed my creatures, then he played the other Chandras) - Lose
6. Sultai Reanimator (History of Benalia, then Song of Freyalise on 4 creatures, then Venerated Loxodon. He conceded) - Win
7. Izzet Phoenix (He destroyed most of my things and then he had 3x 10/4 Drakes in play.) - Lose
8. Boros Feather (Conclave Tribunals on Dreadhorde Arcanist and on Feather, the Redeemed. Then he Reckless Raged on his Dreadhorde Arcanist to kill my Chamber Sentry, I used Chamber Sentrys ability, Dreadhorde Arcanist died, he gave up.) - Win
9. Esper Control (ANNOYING!!! Comeback with Growth-Chamber Guardians? Nope, he drew Kaya's Wrath number 3. Combeback with History of Benalia? Nope, Cry of Carnarium.) - Lose
10. Mono Blue (I won the tempo game. He conceded) - Win

Win 5:5 Lose

Conclusion: Good deck. I nearly submitted a pretty similar deck, therefore it was easy for me to maneuver. Good tempo plays if you draw right.

DJ0045 Selesnya Token Deck:


1. Mono Black Aggro (Kept a slow hand. Turn 3 Spawn of Mayhem, Ouch. Too fast for me.) - Lose
2. Mono Red Chandra (I had a good start with Venerated Loxodon on turn 3, but then I couldn't get more than 3 lands for a long time. He played Chandra after Chandra meanwhile. But he had no defense and I could attack them all pretty easy. Then i finished him with some tokens getting buffed by Song of Freyalise.) - Win
3. Gruul Aggro (I was way behind, but somehow I managed to not get under 2 life and played so much tokens with March of the Multitude until I could finish him in one blow.) - Win
4. Orzhov Vampires (T1 Legion's Landing, T2 Emmara, Soul of the Accord, T3 Snubhorn Sentry and Saproling Migration, T4 March of the Multitude. Concede.) - Win
5. Sultai Dreadhorde (Song of Freyalise + March of the Multitude MVP and a Conclave Tribunal on Tamiyo, Collector of Tales sealed the deal.) - Win
6. Azorius Fliers (Got a March of the Multitude for 9, but then he played Lyra Dawnbringer and just killed me in the air.) - Lose
7. Izzet (T1 Flower // Flourish, T2 Emmara, Soul of the Accord, T3 Snubhorn Sentry and Saproling Migration, T4 Venerated Loxodon. Concede) - Win
8. Big Red (He had some scary creatures on the board. I played 3 March of the Multitude in a row and this happened: https://i.imgur.com/jgxNYcR.jpg) - Win
9. Mono Black Aggro (Turn 3 Venerated Loxodon for 0 mana, Concede) - Win
10. Mono Green (Turn 3 Venerated Loxodon again sealed the deal more or less.) - Win

Win 8:2 Lose

Conclusion: Very strong deck. But not much "card breaking", therefore it will get some minus points.

Haven_pt Elves Deck:

1. Temur Elementals (I had to eat some Lightning Strikes and Lava Coils, still I got Song of Freyalise on 3 creatures and could dominate the board state from there on.) - Win
2. Esper Control (Seems like he didn't draw any removal and conceded after i had some creatures in play.) - Win
3. RDW (Ajani, the Greathearted stalled until i got some creatures and a Song of Freyalise in play. I got up to 18 life again, he conceded) - win

7. Azorius Fliers (T1 Pelt Collector, T2 Paradise Druid, T3 Marwyn, the Nurturer and Llanowar Elf. He played Venerated Loxodon on 3 units, but he didn't draw a third land. I could build up my board state faster and overwhelm him.) - Win
8. Gruul Sarkhan's Unsealing (I didn't destroy Sarkhan's Unsealing and he played a Ghalta, Primal Hunger and board wiped me) - Lose
9. Black Aggro (T1 Llanowar Elf, T2 Paradise Druid, T3 Incubation Druid and Pollenbright Druid, T4 Ugin, the Ineffable. He had a lot of removal but no Board Wipe, so I slowly build up until i could ulti Vivien Reid. He conceded) - Win
10. Rakdos Aggro (Mana Flood) - Lose

Win 7:3 Lose

Conclusion: Way better than I expected, maybe also luck with my opponents. But not much "card breaking" with Song of Freyalise.

I was afraid i won't get any wins with the deck, but it performed pretty okay. Bonus points for being creative and janky.

edit: I will post the final scores tomorrow.

Final Ranking:

I will consider the results of the 10 Games I played with the decks + some Bonus Points.

DaRkStAr: This deck is soo much fun. For sure it has it's flaws, but not as much as you would think at first. All the wins where totally one-sided and Song of Freyalise is an important part of the deck.
6 Wins | +0,5 Bonus Points for Card Breaking, +1 Bonus Points for Fun. = 7,5 Points

Cucho Lambreta: I like this deck very much. Song of Freyalise + History of Benalia is an awesome combo. Chamber Sentry was a good choice. Proliferate is fun.
5 Wins | +0.5 Bonus Points for Card Breaking, +1 Bonus Points for Fun. = 6,5 Points

DJ0045: Selesnya Tokens is just a really strong deck, Song of Freyalise fits in the deck quite okay. But it's not really creative card breaking.
8 Wins | -0,5 Points for Card Breaking, +0,5 Points for Fun = 8 Points

Haven_pt: Mono G Elfball is just a really strong deck, Song of Freyalise fits in the deck quite okay. But it's not really creative card breaking.
7 Wins | -0,5 Points for Card Breaking, +0,5 Points for Fun = 7 Points

Heffalump: The most janky and creative deck submission. There were some fun interactions, but unfortunately the combos happen rarely if the opponent also does something.
4 Wins | +1 Bonus Points for Card Breaking, +1 Bonus Points for Fun = 6 Points

Final Scores:

Ok, I'm gonna tally up the scores and see if we have a clear winner.

Nop... 4-way tie for 1st place. Congrats DaRkStAr, you almost force me to finish my judging to break the tie.

4 way tie!!!!
Haven you lazy pyromancer go judge!
