Updated:

30 Jun 2021

Green is the color of sustenance. It is the color most associated with growth. But when life grows out of control, you create monsters. These green creatures can terrorize you with their beastly stature and aggressive tendencies. Facing a big, green monster head-on is never a good idea and will often lead to death and defeat. Here are the Top 15 best green creatures in the current meta

15. Swarm Shambler

What’s good about this card?

Swarm Shambler is a great creature to start when you are playing an aggressive deck
It enters the battlefield as a simple 1/1 creature but it gives you a lot of value when you pair it with other creatures that have +1/+1 counters on them
You can also use this as a mana sink to maximize your turns as you can also give it a +1/+1 counter once per turn

TCG Median Price: $0.39

14. Kolvori, God of Kinship

What’s good about this card?

If you are looking for a card to team up with your other legendary creatures, Kolvori is what you are looking for
Kolvori, God of Kinship gets most of its power from other legendary creatures as you get an extra +4/+2 if you have three or more legendary creatures on the battlefield
It also allows you to dig for legendary creatures from your library for just 2 mana

TCG Median Price: $0.50

13. Yorvo, Lord of Garenbrig

What’s good about this card?

Yorvo, Lord of Garenbrig is a creature that can snowball when curved out properly
It enters as a three-mana 4/4 but as you cast more green creature spells it will get more +1/+1 counters
It also gains an additional +1/+1 if the creature you cast has higher power than Yorvo which incentivizes you to pick when to cast creatures

TCG Median Price: $0.50

12. Toski, Bearer of Secrets

What’s good about this card?

Toski is not really what you think of when you think about the best cards in green because it is merely a 1/1 creature.
Although it is just a 1/1 creature, it still gives a lot of incentive for you to attack and deal damage to your opponent because you get to draw a card when you do so
It is also indestructible and it needs to attack every combat phase so your opponent will always have a looming 1 damage threat to their name

TCG Median Price: $6.40

11. Dragonsguard Elite

What’s good about this card?

Dragonsguard Elite is a great card to have in non-creature-heavy decks as it gets its value when combined with instants and sorceries
Every time you cast, or even copy, an instant or sorcery, Dragonsguard Elite gets a +1/+1 counter
It also presents you with a good mana sink that you can use to close out the game as it will double the number of +1/+1 counters on this creature

TCG Median Price: $0.40

10. Gemrazer

What’s good about this card?

Mutate may not be the best deck in the format but Gemrazer is among the mutate cards that are still relevant today
Aside from having a 4/4 creature with reach and trample, you can also deal with your opponent’s enchantments and artifacts like The Great Henge or Embercleave
Because of this ability, having a copy or two of Gemrazer is a safe strategy that you should try

TCG Median Price: $1.00

9. Lovestruck Beast

What’s good about this card?

A 2 for 1 card that is essential in almost all decks that run with green colors
This card is a good way to properly curve out your turns as you can play the Adventure part of the card on turn one then play Lovestruck Beast on turn 2 or 3
Getting an early 5/5 beast on the board can help accelerate your offense

TCG Median Price: $0.48

8. Garruk’s Harbinger

What’s good about this card?

In terms of its power-to-mana efficiency, Garruk’s Harbinger is a pretty decent creature card to have in this meta

TCG Median Price: $0.49

7. Vorinclex, Monstrous Raider

What’s good about this card?

Vorinclex, when placed on the right deck can completely wreck your opponent’s game plan
This monster can battle it out with most creatures because of its stats. However, it provides much more value than that.
It can also accelerate your counters on your permanents so you can attack with more power, achieve higher loyalty on your planeswalkers or whatever you need those counters for

TCG Median Price: $36.57

6. Edgewall Innkeeper

What’s good about this card?

Adventure is still a pretty strong deck archetype in this meta and Edgewall Innkeeper is one of the reasons for it

A one-mana card generating machine is always a welcome sight in any deck

TCG Median Price: $0.25

5. Kazandu Mammoth

What’s good about this card?

Getting a 3/3 card for just three mana may not really be your idea of ‘best’ but there’s more to Kazandu Mammoth that
This creature can potentially deal more than three damage per turn as it receives a +2/+2 boost everytime a land enters the battlefield
Having this in an empty board can quickly snowball into a win

TCG Median Price: $0.50

3. Questing Beast

One of the staple cards to any green aggro deck, Questing Beast is still one of the best creatures you can play in the game

2. Scavenging Ooze

What’s good about this card?

A 2/2 creature that can potentially snowball into something unstoppable, Scavenging Ooze is a good creature that can deal with many decks in the meta
