A straightforward Goodstuffs strategy using Dosan to act as an added control element against Counterspells and other instant speed removal that might impact Green's creature heavy strategy. Dosan's ability can be built around by having a few number of instant speed spells and yet not have the deck be overly-reliant on its general. In addition, his effect is so subtle that often players wont bother to waste removal on Him, so that his effect lingers longer than it would if it were something a bit more over-the-top.
Also, I have been contemplating putting something else in Bellowing Tanglewurm's slot. Currently he's 1 of only 2 5CMC creatures for the Birthing Pod chain. I'm thinking Indrik Stomphowler in his place, but both can be really effective, perhaps cut something else and open up 3 5CMC cards?! Thoughts...
