Will do ^^. I'm not really looking to transform my deck list in a token one, just wanna add a subcategory (separate decklist ) for tokens ^^.
Bitterblossom is a good card, but a little bit expensive. Riku decklist here we come :-P .
Actually, if you don't have it already, I would recommend Charnelhoard Wurm. I've recently started playing this and it does wonders! A fatty that lets you recycle your other fatties or removal? AMAZING!!!
@Shortstack: I've tried Charnelhoard in the past, but he costs 7 mana (while I already have quite some creatures with a relatively high mana cost). Charnelhoard is a Grim Harvest and Regrowth/Recollect on a stick, but he requires to hit. (Maybe I'll sleeve him up, and change some cards from time to time ^^).
@Allies: That is indeed quite the card for the token section!
I wonder how long I will be able to pay it's equip cost though. 2-4-8-16 (Probably 3 times)
On a sidenote: what color of dragonshield sleeves should I use? ^^
Currently I'm using brown ones. Or does anybody know sleeves with a cool artwork?
Currently I'm running the Brown ones, because... I don't know. The feeling of earth, something like the battlefield. I was thinking about Orange ones perhaps.
Perhaps I should buy another pack of black ones... I don't know yet ^^.
I just filled in the "Why should you play Kresh?" part with the alternative legends =). Slowly it's getting filled in...
I'm also working on the alternative route with the tokens, if you guys wanna give me a hand, that would be great. This is what I already have at the moment. (Will probably need some cuts)
Dread Cacodemon has been replaced by Plague Wind, because it's one mana cheaper and that it doesn't tap your creatures (and this is the big advantage). All of your opponents creatures die, your Kresh gets bigger, and you'll probably be able to kill somebody. (And this wasn't possible with Dread Cacodemon).
Whispersilk Cloak has been replaced by Swiftfoot Boots, because it gives Hexproof and not shroud, so you'll still be able to target Kresh with your Fling effects. If I really want the unblockable effect, I can still include Rogue's Passage. And the fact that the boots also provide haste.
And last but not least, Barter in Blood for Grim Harvest. I love recur effects, and Grim Harvest does it incredibly well. Barter in Blood is also quite dangerous because if Kresh would be indestructible (Darksteel Plate or Spearbreaker Behemoth and your opponent kills your other creatures in response, you'll still need to sac him.
Ordered some new shiny stuff too. (Well not shiny stuff, just new stuff cause I hate foils :p).

Worldslayer only works with Darksteel Plate or Spearbreaker Behemoth, so I think I'll pass. It's an awesome equipment, but it costs a lot. 5 mana to play it, 5 mana to equip it. :/
Any suggestions with the tokens section Asteris? ^^
You're right, great find! I just hope I have enough non-token creatures to justify him then. And the deathtouch goes very nicely with Kresh. And there're not many black token producers, so this will probably find a place.
Ok, I just explained the quote, and filled in all of my card choices (basicly whole my decklist).
Still need to do:
- The likes and dislikes of playing Kresh
- Personal biography
- Strategy (early-mid-late game)
- Explain the card options (other cards you might wanna add)
- The different ways to build Kresh (Token - themed version)
So I still have some work to do ^^.
If you guys spot any typo's, links that don't work, or anything else that isn't grammatically correct, please feel free to pm me.
Sword of vengeance gives your creature a few bells and whistles with haste, vigilance etc. but [CARD]Loxodon Warhammer
[/CARD] gives lifelink, and I think that's more important. I've considered this card before, but I've never been a huge fan of equipments.
I would go vigor. Basically, all your creatures become extremely protected against any combat damage, and I really wanna get this card too.

Wow :o, I expected Vigor to cost only a few bucks, guess I'm wrong about that one.
Yea I also prefer Loxodon Warhammer over the Sword, but I'm also a big fan of Vigilance, so I was doubting a little.
I'm thinking about swapping Caldera Hellion for Hamletback Goliath.
I agree that Hamletback Goliath doesn't have haste, and just like Kresh he's easily removed. But he get's sooo big (and that's what we need here).
I'm not seeing a lot of tokens around me lately, so might as well take him out, and put him in some sort of sideboard section.
What do you guys think? Would this be a good swap?

How is your list coming along Shortstack? ^^
Yeah, vigor is a little on the expensive side...
My list is coming along very well, I just need a few cards here and there to tweak the decklist. It already works fantastically, and my recently purchased cards make it all the more better.
I'm also considering building a modern deck involving Birthing Pod, but it needs to be budget since I'm really tight on cash. Do you have any ideas?

I think the swap should be ok, but I'm not a huge fan of either card. I used to run hamletback goliath, but I found that he was a giant creature that just didn't do anything. You're running more fling-like effects though, so it might be good for you, but I just couldn't support a good reason for me to use him.
Yea Hamlet is basicly my lesser Lord of Extinction. And it would indeed be for the flinging effects.
What cards did you recently buy? (Or do you mean the Woodland Cemetery and stuff? ^^ )
You have an incredible love for that Birthing Pod, I sometimes wonder if you wouldn't prefer that Pod at the helm, instead of Kresh xD.
Woodland cemetery and stuff.
Honestly, if Birthing Pod was a legendary creature it would be my general. Kresh nowadays just kinda sits on the sidelines. I almost always have better things to do than cast him with my build. Right now I'm kinda hoping that Theros is a legendary block where they print a new super awesome jund general that will blow Kresh out of the water. Preferable, something involving permanent destruction. I love killing things almost as much as podding them.:D

I would hope wedge more so, but I'd probably have to wait till Murganda finally shows up....
Red-black-white and black-blue-green need more generals. The jund colors have a fair number to choose from, they don't.
I finally have the opportunity to play some games, now that the exams are finished ^^
Oh and I applied for a primer status, let us hope it'll pass
