Yo, everyone! How are you doing?
I'm writing this article as my participation at jungleboy1's Nature Card Giveaway - Amazons Edition. First things first, I need to admit that I'm not a Nature player, but the event encouraged me to give it a try!
As an inexperienced Nature player, I had to make a quick research before getting my hands dirty on deckbuilding.
It's impossible talk about Nature without mention MightyUncle. For those that doesn't know him, he became famous for get consistent results piloting Nature decks. Earlier this week, he reached the #1 on players ranking. Even more, luckily for us, he did it testing some Amazons lists! 🙌
Unfortunately, at the same time I'm writing this article he is playing his Weekend Ranked event and not doing that great (currently 5/11, 3/6 using the Amazon list). But it still the best place to start our build.
I noticed some changes on his lists since he started to play Amazons:
Decklist 1 [5W 0L] → Decklist 2 [7W 0L]
Decklist 2 [7W 0L] → Decklist 3 (current list) [3W 3L - WR]
As a F2P player, I knew in advance that i couldn't afford MightyUncle's list. So I looked for other F2P players that was recently playing Amazons. It was then when I found a player called Gluthor that got a 13/25 result on current weekend ranked at Mythic rank, wich is quite a result playing a F2P and non-tier 1 list.
He also changed his list during the event:
Decklist 1 [5W 2L] → Decklist 2 [8W 10L]
After gathering all those information, it's time to go shopping and start forging our F2P list (wich I kindly called SlightyUncle's Amazon Deck 😅)!
There are some core cheap cards that I can afford using my pending $GODS rewards or selling some unused cards that I have. So, I will buy the following cards:
Although, as life isn't a bed of roses, there are a plenty of cards that I can't afford 😰 or didn't collect yet (core set cards):
So, my job was to find some replacement for the 10 cards that are missing. To accomplish this, I went over Gluthor's lists and other #amazonunchained giveaway lists. See bellow the list that make it and my thoughts about the chosen cards:

Pack Stalk (+1)
Got this from kstreet's article. I'm really curious to see the card in action
Nightleaf Hunter (+2)
It has the status that we need to rush our opponents. There are plenty of 1-drops that make possible get the +1 buff on turn 1.
Amazon Spearsoul (+2)
Our confuseless Black Jaguar! Why not?
Canopy Sniper (+1)
I have the playset, it's an Amazon, the deck lacks removals. I'm not completely sold about that, it looks like two is too much.
Gersemi, Freyja's Spear (+1)
I just wanna try Gersemi and see how it goes, probably will not make the cut.
Firewine (+1)
Our plan is going wide. I expect that we can make good trades without giving up of rush our oponnents. It's our weakier Arkmonian Onslaught. The initial ideia was to try Trial of the Hydra, but the cost of it ($16) doesn't make possible the test for now.
Nightleaf Prowler (+1)
I heard that this deck face a lack of ways of coming back after your opponent controlled the board. As 
Now the Hidden on this creature can help you get back in the game again in case you were losing, or can help you finish the game off; since hidden creatures are more probable to survive to next turn, you can use Arkmonian Onslaught in the next turn and have 3 6/4 creatures with twin strike in only 2 turns which is very good if all creatures survived.
After gather all cards, I will play some games to test the list and comeback to share the results. It looks really fun to play a tribal deck! I'm excited to start playing and hoping that the deck find its place on meta with the upcoming set Mortal Judgement.
By the way, before we finish, I'd like to list some Amazon additions that Mortal Judgement will bring:
Finally, let me know on comments what are your toughts about the new cards? There are other non-tribal cards that will serve to Amazons too?
Thank you for your attention and see you in the next article!
