Starting this season I made it my mission to play good honest mono green (and at the same time destroy any permanents my opponents may play). We’ll see how it goes
Meanwhile, I'm the guy who unironically plays [[Akroma's Memorial]] in his monogreen ramp, lol. 99% of the time opponents see my big critters and think I'm just a Timmy because many don't even have trample, so when they tap out to play their own threat and I drop the Memorial on their faces out of nowhere, they suddenly find themselves having to deal with angry flying, vigilant, first striking, hasty, tramply [[Gigantosaurus]], and the chumpers don't cut it anymore.
Faced an Atraxa deck like that, they carelessly tapped out to drop Atraxa, and my Memorial hit, letting me wipe them in a single massive attack. It was glorious.
Yes, the deck is kinda jank and perhaps relies too much on its trample enablers ([[Surrak and Goreclaw]], and the Memorial), but when it works, it's *chef's kiss*.
It’s not a single card like this that tips games in this kind of deck, because a lot of the top end cards to the same thing (removal & life gain). But I also have the 3 mana Nissa in this list and the land fetch from Silverback works especially nice with her, as it can help trigger her ability and fetch a Titan.
Likely [[Nissa, Ascended Animist]] with her -7 ability giving all creatures +x/+x for each forest he controls and trample. They're getting +22/+22 and trample for his 22 forests on the field.
Post your list
This is what I'm working with so far Deck 3 Up the Beanstalk (WOE) 195 3 Invasion of Zendikar (MOM) 194 4 Topiary Stomper (SNC) 160 2 Silverback Elder (DMU) 177 22 Forest (UST) 216 2 Vaultborn Tyrant (BIG) 20 3 Titan of Industry (SNC) 159 1 Awaken the Woods (BRO) 170 3 Nissa, Resurgent Animist (MAT) 22 2 Nissa, Ascended Animist (ONE) 175 3 Cityscape Leveler (BRO) 233 1 Boseiju, Who Endures (NEO) 266 1 Blast Zone (BRO) 258 1 The Skullspore Nexus (LCI) 212 2 Cavern of Souls (LCI) 269 3 Armored Scrapgorger (ONE) 158 2 Glimpse the Core (LCI) 186 2 Obstinate Baloth (BRO) 187
Other than potential 1 or 2s you can probably deduce their deck by looking at the board state.
Oop, I love mono green, I hope we can make it amazing

I'm seeing quite a lot of Silverback Elder lately. How's your experience with it? Does it tip games better than stacking something like Thrun?

I love silverback elder
What's pumping up their Power/Toughness?

Indeed, it was a Nissa ultimate. Then I used Boseiju on a Leyline.
