Commentary -
A very fun to play mono-green almost entirely geared towards the 
lovely-but-expensive Crush of Wurms. It is very consistent, usually getting 
either a crush or Roar + flashback Roar out around turn 3/4. It works on a 
very nice curve, similar to it's ideological cousin Elfball (Flaming Elves).

Synopsios-
Turn 1:  Forest, Elf/Bird
Turn 2: Cradle, Elf, Titania's Priestess (or more elves)
Turn 3: Roar, Crush, Llanowar Sentinels x4
Turn 4: Shotgun!

Card Choices -
You may want to change some of these depending on your current environment. 
Most are obvious choices except the following

Llanowar Sentinel.
The synergy between this and Priest of Titania and Gaea's Cradle is amazing, 
netting you 4 solid 2/3's, as well as providing the mana for all sorts of 
lovely Wurm-related fun. Try them and love them

Elvish Lyrist.
It's an Elf. It costs G. It doesn't give mana but it does help in 
emergencies. Never a dead card due to Cradle and Priest of Titania, I'd put 
its inclusion down to personal preference more than anything. Swap for 
Elvish Herder or whatever if you really want.

If you really want, you could throw in some trample enablers; Brawn and 
whatnot, but it really doesn't need them. 6 6/6 wurms on turn 4 is usually 
enough for you to ignore trample altogether :P

Sideboard-
You decide, but I would suggest getting some Creeping Mold should any sort 
of mirror match situation arise. You could get frustrated by an opponent's 
Gaea's Cradle.

Come November-
Really doesn't lose much, The Llanowar Sentinels have to go, as do Quirion 
Ranger and Fyndhorn Elves, but who knows, maybe Onslaught might have 
something. Could be a solid deck.

Good Luck  -
