I was in LA. :-)

Bad pairings wrecked my day, but I had a blast and a half. The boat was
awesome.

I spent a lot of time working on the Naturepotence deck (credit for the name
goes to Tolun) and found out a number of things.

Recycle isn't necessary.
You WILL have a handfull of cards with this deck, you just can't play
everything fast enough. Thats the coolest thing - I play out a horde of
creatures, and still have seven cards in hand.

I'm going to have to go up to 26 land in this deck too. Its just SOO mana
intensive.

Despite the fact that I finish most games with a handful of cards - the deck
needs a lot of tuning - I'm still losing even though I have seven cards in
hand.

In its current incarnation - the deck is

4 wall of blossoms
4 striped bears
4 llanowar sentinels
2 maro
2 wildebeasts
2 goyf's
2 arctic wolves

4 prokove
4 feral instinct
4 creeps
2 overrun
2 desert twister

I've noticed the power of my green decks improve with the inclusion of
desert twister, and it should also be noted that green really needs maze of
shadows, as provoke does nothing against a shadow guy.
