If you could choose the format for your next PTQ what would it be?

Druids!

Who says you can't have a fun, competitive type II deck that isn't Tier I? "Druids!" utilizes the basic strategy of accelerating into Gilt-Leaf Archdruid and then stealing an opponents lands. Using the "Elfball" elements of the deck (Heritage Druid, Nettle Sentinel, Hunting Triad, and Elvish Promenade) you can accomplish this task as quickly as turn 4! Avoiding those pesky Wraths if you are on the play. I've been wanting to build this deck for a while but I've been too busy prepping for the PTQ next month and getting my Esper-Control Deck ready for tournament play. (Both my Extended "Ravinity" and Type II "Esper Kevilark Control" decks will be previewed in later posts!) Against control decks it's a glass cannon but against any other type of deck it fairs pretty well and is a blast to play! I am still working on a sideboard that will toughen it up a bit for control match ups but this is the deck in it's current form:
