first put down the nessary land and any amount of monsters ONLY block if needed. send out mycoloth and devour all monsters dont block any attacks and use fog if needed. once you have 20 sapling tokens use overrun and attack all out. attack when oponent is used almost all mana so not to cancel overrun.

takes time and skill not to mess it up

umm, ok I can see it taking time to get the enough creatures, however, the essence of your combo is get creatures, don't lose them, hit with alot. which hardly requires alot of skill,  but rather a basic understanding of the game is necessary.

The two main reason for consistant mana screw is poor shuffling and not enough mana.  I assume you know how to shuffle, so whats your manabase, and your mana curve.  if you post it we might be able to offer suggestions on how to cut down the mana problems.  just aquick glance based on your combo if its mono-colored you should be running about 22 lands, mainly because of the 5 cmc

In my opinion I wouldn’t run anything less than 23 lands with any of my cards costing 5 or less. Any cards costing 5 or more I would run 24 to 26. Of course in both cases this would be determined if I were running mana excel or not. The other thing to remember, unless you are playing multi-player games, is spot removal. Putting all your eggs in one basket is just asking for a Terminate, or Path to Exile!

I don't know what kind of deck you are running but I run a deck with a play set of mycoloth, so take a look and see if it gives you any ideas.

i have 21 forest land cards in my deck

--------------------------------------------------------

thank you i will note that

---------------------------------------------------------

i am running an elf deck because low costing elfs=lots of elfs, lots of elfs+Mycoloth= lots of counters, lots of counters=lots of sapling tokens, lots of sapling tokens+overrun=almost unstopable force.

p.s. i only play with legal cards
