Description of deck by it's author
(quoted):
Let’s see what we can do with monkeys (except
for showing them mirrors and trying to learn something about human
nature). The first thing this deck needs are big guns. This would have
to be the Gargantuan Gorilla. This primate roamed the woods during
Alliances and can still chuck trees around like it ain’t no thing.
Another alpha-male for this deck could be Ancient Silverback; a 6/5
regenerate. Though the Gargantuan Gorilla prefers cold, snow-covered
Forests, I will have to include a small splash of red, so we can enjoy
the banana-eating company of Mox Monkey, Kird Ape and Ravenous Baboons.
Four Rampant Growths are a must in this deck, to enable
a turn four Gateway and to find either a scarce Mountain or a Snow-covered
Forest (which, although covered in snow are still basic, ladies and
gentlemen). Having faith in my monkeys to take care of opposing forces and
trinkets, I just needed some enchantment removal. Tranquil Path is a
personal favourite, but you could go for Tranquillity or Emerald Charm.
