A green whale rush deck I made for the Metashaker #5 contest. A surprisingly effective deck that I'm climbing ladder with right now :) .
This deck tries to get whales out as early as possible along with overwhelming the opponent with big creatures at his orb early on too. Depending on your starting hand and wild growth randomness, you may go either up the middle or up the wells. Mulligan for some land generation as a priority along with a creature you might be able to play. Setting up a collector whenever you can helps a lot with this deck due to the high faeria requirement of your creatures. Ruunin's shrine allows you to negate the cost of land generation cards and make comebacks when behind on faeria. Voice of truth allows your high hp creatures (including whales) to make beneficial trades with your opponent's creatures and also doubles up as a collector and feed the forest target. Willow is mainly for collection and feed target.

EDIT :
-3 seed sower
-3 tiki caretaker
+2 willow
+2 voice of truth
+2 grizzly
I've made these adjustments to increase Feed the Forest targets. They're also a good addition and synergize well with this deck.
Looks extremely powerful. Great deck building but I can see this deck becoming pure cancer. monkaS
Don’t worry. The meta will change this Tuesday xD
Looks good, good luck brother!
What do you think about adding Grove Guardian? Should be pretty strong against people trying to counter-rush you (which is pretty popular atm)
@J0k3se I guess you can replace grizzlies with it since I feel they haven’t been performing so great. I’ll have to try it out.
