Strategy:

This deck uses cards like Yavimaya Elder, Wild Mongrel, and Basking Rootwalla to help slow down quick play beatdown decks, then followed by a Roar of the Wurm and/or a Sandbar Crocodile to effectively stall the battleground. Eventually it can punch through with its fatties or by pumping up unblocked creatures with Predator’s Strike.

Against control, the battle turns into a war of attrition. Try not committing many creatures to the board to minimizes the effectiveness of “Wrath of God” like effects. Use cards like Thought Courier and Catalog to gain a card advantage, get a Roar of the Wurm or two into the graveyard in addition to work towards threshold to overpower your opponent and to keep counter answers to his or her answers to your threats fresh in your hand.
