					Deck 
					Garage 
					    So this is only my second attempt 
					to build and some help would be great. the deck is a 
					black/green which is mostly based around getting my devoted 
					druid and my quill spike out at the same time keeping them 
					alive and using devoted druid to make quillspike huge 
					and swing for a kill. I need some help weeding it down (that 
					is the hardest part for me) and maybe some more flying 
					protection. i was thinking maybe a ranking canopy or two. 
					this deck is just for casual play with friends. thanks

					John, that list of cards is so long, I barely know where to 
					begin. Also you have no lands. So instead of cherry-picking 
					cards out one by one until you have a polished deck, I'm 
					just going to start all over and build you a new deck from 
					the ground up. 
					
					  
					
					We'll start with the combo you want to feature. 
					
					  
					
					Quillspike 
					
					Devoted Druid 
					
					  
					
					Now, after the combo pieces themselves, the most important 
					part of a combo deck is adding ways to find your combo 
					pieces. You can do that with tutoring, top-o'-the-deck 
					manipulation, or just plain drawing more cards. I say let's 
					try all three. 
					
					  
					
					Commune with Nature 
					
					Beseech the Queen 
					
					Wall of Blossoms 
					
					  
					
					Now, as soon as you go off the first time (or, honestly, the 
					minute a savvy opponent sees Quillspike hit the table, since 
					Quillspike isn't really good in any other deck), your 
					opponent is going to go out of his way to keep you from 
					going off all over his board. You need ways to protect your 
					creatures, or at least recover them if they eat an untimely 
					kill spell. 
					
					  
					
					Vines of Vastwood 
					
					Grim Discovery 
					
					  
					
					Now, Grim Discovery is the first card I've suggested that 
					needs black mana, though Quillspike and Beseech the Queen 
					were already leaning that way pretty hard so I don't mind. 
					It also suggests that you don't mind if lands go to your 
					graveyard, so we'll add in a few lands you sack. Not only 
					will it fix your mana, it'll thin your deck and incresae 
					your odds of drawing your combo. 
					
					  
					
					Terramorphic Expanse 
					
					Jund Panorama 
					
					  
					
					Next, you say you want flying defense. Well, I say you want 
					all kinds of defense. Combo just needs to not lose until it 
					gets to the point where it wins. You're going to need some 
					ways to stop your opponent from killing you, be it through 
					solid blockers or actively denying them their weapons 
					against you. 
					
					  
					
					Traproot Kami 
					
					Putrefy 
					
					  
					
					So, here's your final decklist as I see it. 
					
					  
					
					Creatures: 
					
					4 Devoted Druid 
					
					4 Quillspike 
					
					4 Wall of Blossoms 
					
					3 Traproot Kami 
					
					2 Grave-Shell Scarab 
					
					Spells: 
					
					4 Commune with Nature 
					
					2 Grim Discovery 
					
					4 Putrefy 
					
					4 Vines of Vastwood 
					
					2 Beseech the Queen 
					
					3 Phyrexian Arena 
					
					Lands: 
					
					4 Terramorphic Expanse 
					
					2 Jund Panorama 
					
					6 Swamp 
					
					12 Forest 
					
					  
					
					That should accomplish what you want it to. 
					
					  
					
					Good luck!
