Legendary Creature — Spirit
Reach Modified creatures you control have trample. (Equipment, Auras you control, and counters are modifications.) Whenever a modified creature you control deals combat damage to a player, search your library for a basic land card, put it onto the battlefield tapped, then shuffle.
“Trample lord that fetches lands every time modified creatures hit—ramp into an army.”
Kodama of the West Tree is a land-ramp engine disguised as a combat lord. Your core gameplan is simple: attach equipment, pump creatures with counters, or slap Auras onto your team, then swing in for combat damage. Every hit triggers Kodama's land-fetching ability, ramping you while your modified creatures trample over blockers. This turns each combat phase into a resource acceleration opportunity, letting you hit your big plays earlier than opponents expect.
You're not trying to win with Kodama's 3 power alone—you're using her as a mana engine while building a board of threats. The deck thrives on permanents that modify creatures: cheap equipment like Colossus Hammer or Sword of the Animist, +1/+1 counter synergies with cards like Hardened Scales or Ozolith, and anthem effects that double down on your team. By mid-game, you'll have tutored up enough lands to cast multiple threats per turn, overwhelming opponents with velocity and a growing board.
Your win condition is good old combat damage from a wide, trampling board. With card advantage from land ramp, you'll naturally hit critical mass faster than typical green decks. It's a straightforward grindy strategy that rewards patience and smart Aura/equipment placement.

Skip pricey swords; use Kessig Wolf Run, Oblivion Ring, and Fertile Ground as budget modifications. Basic equipment and cheap +1/+1 synergies work great at lower price points.
