This guide is aimed at helping people of all skill levels to get started with nature in gods unchained as well as offer strong upgrade paths through the various decks. The first one is going to use exclusively welcome set cards which everyone has, this makes it a great starting point for brand new player. In the second deck we are going to add some core cards. Those cards can be obtained simply by leveling up which makes the list accessible to everyone who managed to obtain a few of those cards. For the third list we are going to be adding a few cheap cards that elevate the deck to a whole new level. Those cards can be obtained through the weekend ranked event or bought with the $GODS obtained by playing. We will focus on keeping those extra cards around 20$ to make it easily achievable with the play to earn options the game has to offer. Lastly we are going to take a look at what an optimized list can look like.

Welcome Deck

![image.png](https://images.hive.blog/DQmUYqEWowS3cPmdRWPDWNvxdrpme4vXPj9MDTsmzRZ54LA/image.png) These decks are going to share the same playstyle. The deck is focused on trying to get the board early and keep it to overwhelm the enemy. For mulligan you need to get some early drops and try to have a play planned for the next turn. For example turn 1 can be a "little bag of tricks" (extra mana crystal) to play 2 creatures on the first turn. Some of those creatures can be 2 wild hogs, a wild hog and a best friends or anything that will make it hard for the enemy to clear. When going second an axewoman to trade the enemy's creature as well as a minion to take over control of the board is really powerful. For the next turns it's really important to try and use the mana as well as possible and keep building the board while taking advantageous trades. I'm posting below the deck code to easily import it in game. GU_1_5_HADHADHAEHAEHAFHAFHAGHAGHAzHAzHACHACHAHHAHHAJHAJHANHANHAOHAOHBAHBAHAQHAQHAvHAvHATHATHAwHAw

Welcore Deck

![image.png](https://images.hive.blog/DQmZr3cWrj8VrBTF5ZKaRrEh3TLi5HJEHsa6R9aZHhFSyBc/image.png) Now it's time for the Welcore deck (Welcome + Core). This is the first deck in the list that is mythic viable when played correctly. For this list we started replacing a lot of the weaker welcome cards with stronger versions from the core set. Aggro tends to want to keep board control so it's important to have cards that offer great value. High strength with low hp creatures tend to die more easily and often trade 1 for 1 with the opponent, this is why we want to focus on creatures that have a higher health than strength. This allows them to often trade 1 for 2 which allows us to build up card advantage over the opponent which ultimately is our best win condition. A lot of beginners are afraid of using their god's HP as a resource but it's often important to take some face damage using those weapons in order to secure a stronger board presence. Here are some possible replacements or alternatives for the deck ![image.png](https://images.hive.blog/DQmcUDqjCDiwUnutJPkSR9BdpvJDqQxJHt4iLyiLG2ZjPeJ/image.png) ![image.png](https://images.hive.blog/DQmNMZXFDGyKgzmY91V6DxoUkK76s3rfmgZ8A9WMzqeiJCa/image.png) Welcore deck code: GU_1_5_CAuCAuCDFCDFHAEHAEHAFHAFCATCATCAvCAvCBhCBhCCOCCOCBsCBsHAJHAJCArCArCDLCBRCBRCCwCApCApHAwHAw

Low Budget

![image.png](https://images.hive.blog/DQmb14oMdvBKpTKKpetiyS5fYTNmvYjt4pCsn3NZHUvbNdf/image.png) For this list we've kept our early game cards identical but focused on adding a few more options to help deal with a few of the threats the deck can face at higher ranks. ![image.png](https://images.hive.blog/DQmfWNxr4DQd29DiMmLVAdECBCd3ua5UKLhsMkCB1mxd5c1/image.png) The lightning strikes really help out the deck to deal with big walls that would normally require multiple cards to deal with. ![image.png](https://images.hive.blog/DQmbfw6RdG8a2c6ZEvoFKV7BEgU1n7drtPVW7wUik2EJAQZ/image.png) The Celestial Stag is a great tool that allows us to generate extra cards to keep our hand and options as wide as possible. ![image.png](https://images.hive.blog/DQmd9pHeceqexifWnZh7wRp6K2m4uyh461im1v8Rm2vWBbW/image.png) We added a very strong end game with the giant pangolin and the sudden bloom, allowing us to setup a very powerful burst that our opponent won't see coming. ![image.png](https://images.hive.blog/DQmfK4fNjeDXCzTuZfu2GA5Xh1LeuMDBB9td7f8rJ3PiP4R/image.png) The Munosian Infiltrator is a tech card to combat all the infamous pyramid wardens that are found in a lot of the mythic decks, allowing us to simply transform it into a 2/2 from the 2/6 that it was.

The Divine Order cards that we added will set someone back around 20.33$ with current market prices which are of course subject to change. Here is a small table showing the different prices right now ![image.png](https://images.hive.blog/DQmaGykSrEbNwjhUhw85gC4k7wGnUKcAG21ZSYJnVj1hr76/image.png) As always here is the deck code for this list: GU_1_5_CAuCAuHAEHAEHAFHAFCATCATCAvCAvCBhCBhCCOCCOICOICOCBxCBxIALIALIDKCEJCEJIANIANIDMIDMIARIDFIDF

Optimized Deck

![image.png](https://images.hive.blog/DQmX5yK4XbgL6WAKzoTnPfyUReZ9VUHTfs9WBr5JbacbbJL/image.png) It's finally time for the more optimized list. I'm going to start with the price to get it out of the way immediately. The divine order, genesis and trial of the gods cards in this list are at a total of 1107.27$ with the current market prices. ![image.png](https://images.hive.blog/DQmcPvQCTWSxdZ66DCiD3PtuscGGeQC2NZEUUG3qZWGKMTw/image.png) Let's get started with the early game creatures we've added. ![image.png](https://images.hive.blog/DQmf6R7Srgdw4dCwTa6JEmcdDFjfdJkorvU5g98FbcBsLn6/image.png) First of all we've got chiron, a great card that allows us to strengthen our board while having the ability to remove 1 durability from our opponent's relics which can come in handy. ![image.png](https://images.hive.blog/DQmbrwP6qNKTP4AD93zn1s9RcbbZqC8pMLkTYHmAzptyJoo/image.png) Then we have Finnian Fruitbearer an amazing card that allows us to fill the board with 1/1 vibrant fruits that give +1/+1 to our strongest creature when they die. ![image.png](https://images.hive.blog/DQmaNJeSB8gcxgZALUbAskX5PArCPYaZA383PK71rWL9tRL/image.png) Then it's time for the 2 amazing genesis cards that are also the most expensive cards in the deck. The Pyramid warden has an amazing stat line and becomes extremely hard for the opponent to deal with when paired with either chiron to make it a 3/7 or with the vibrant fruits from finnian.
The underbrush boar is one of our best tools in the deck when going second allowing us to place a body on the board while also acting as removal for our opponent's creature. Another amazing ability that the underbrush boar has is to be able to hit targets behind frontline or even with hidden since the target is random. ![image.png](https://images.hive.blog/DQmYhs4d26fweZiWCnExfu4EYDUEy3jBsEpHmp9YJ9JeadP/image.png) Selena is a great card that adds more consistency to the deck as well as providing us with great value. She is able to do 2 damage each turn a selected target, give confusion to a random enemy as well as removing confusion from our own creatures. To add to that the backline + ward package that she has makes her extremely difficult to deal with. ![image.png](https://images.hive.blog/DQmQb5e8Z2p1YPy9DhMTi2AFwv8kysgS2dnLUK1Kc9MM2i2/image.png) Our last addition to our deck is the jaguar staff. It allows us to finish off targets with low hp as well as adding a creature to the board which can be really hard for opponents to deal with.

God Power

For all of these lists the god power is quite versatile. We either want to go with the animal bond to help add creatures on the board or we can choose to go with selena's mark. When facing deception it's usually a good choice to go with selena's mark to be able to kill their hidden creatures.

Final Thoughts

This guide was made to help people find a base deck and be able to have some goal to strive for. The meta is always changing and there are always other options so the most important thing is to experiment and modify based on preference.
**Against relics** cards like Nefarious briar, iron-tooth goblin, bronze servant, svart basilisk are all really strong options. **Against aggro war** something like a revivification or an avatar of nature can be powerful healing tools. **Against sleep** cards like ironclad minotaur can help you push for the last damage before the opponent clears the board. **Time to shill:** If you still haven't started the game and this guide inspired you to give it a try, I would really appreciate it if you decided to use my referral code "RwMzUYWIEE". This has been my first post on hive. I would appreciate any kind of feedback.
