Mono-Green Elf Beatdown (Modern)

Instead of running Collected Company I decided on Beast Whisperer as the best budget option for the deck, and I have been very happy with its inclusion. Despite being a removable creature, with the right draw, you can play him on turn 3 and quickly snowball with Heritage Druid/Nettle Sentinel. I see it as, if they had to use removal on Beast Whisperer, then that's one less removal on another creature that is most likely to kill them. Also, with just 1 lord Beast Whisperer becomes a 3/4, putting it out of bolt range, so there's so upside there. I'm also running 3 copies of Joraga Warcaller as I've found him to be a very versatile, and in some ways, highly explosive lord. At the very worst he is a 1 drop, in most situations he is just a regular lord, but quite often he can end up being the winning play out of nowhere. Having such a low floor makes this card worth it in almost all stages of the game. I've had several games where the opponent just has that 1-2 big butt blockers that aren't worth punching through with the team as I would just loose in the long run, but then being able to kick Joraga 2-4 times just completely swings the game in my favor and I usually win on the spot. This deck is very cheap and strong as a casual best of 1 beatdown, that can reliably kill on turn 4. However, due to the deck being so narrow, it really does struggle in best of 3, where the opponents will always side in cheap early removal and board wipes. This deck also isn't that great against most top tier decks in modern, that can usually "effectively" win on turn 3. While this deck can also nut draw and swing for roughly 16 damage or so on turn 3, you're more likely going to not be fast enough or resilient enough. Despite that, this deck is honestly quite fun, and definitely better than it seems at first glance, being able to play your whole hand by turn 3 and have a very threatening board state is not something to scoff at.
