OurTreant Druid Deck List Guidefeatures an early look at this potential archetype for the Descent of Dragons (DoD) expansion! We’ve got detailed information on mulligans, card choices and replacements. If you want to bring the pain to your opponent’s with waves of angry trees, this is the deck for you.
Treant Druid has flirted with being a strong deck for many expansions However, it generally loses out in favor of a more generalized approach that ends up only splashing some Treant synergy. Token Druid is usually the more successful archetype, but it’s possible that the batch of Treant cards in Descent of Dragons puts this deck over the top.

Here’s a first look at a possible Treant Druid deck in Descent of Dragons:

We’re likely to see some changes to the archetype in the future, we’ll be updating this list and guide with more popular versions once they are revealed!
Treant Druid Mulligan Guide
We are just looking to get on board early to keep things clear enough to land our Treants and take advantage of the various cards we have that synergize with them.
Possible Keeps
Play Strategy
This is an early to mid-game style of deck, so we need to focus on increasing our presence on the board as soon as possible. We’ll make good trades and attempt to be proactive with our plays. If we get an early board lead, we can look to use something likePower of the Wildto buff it up and hopefully prevent losing out to a big AOE. If we’re against an aggro deck, we can look to spread out our board more so than if we’re playing against a control deck.
As well as buffing our board with stats, we also want to use something likeSoul of the Forestto protect against board wipes. Don’t always look for a full board to use this card on, just hitting three minions is sometimes enough to carry us and keep the initiative on our side.Treespeakeris another good example of one to use earlier than you might think.
Try as much as possible to combineAeroponicswith at least a couple of Treants on the board so you can get the big discount. It works well withLandscaping, and you might even be able to get it out early.
Goru the Mightreeis a new addition from the Descent of Dragons. We’ll want to get this out as soon as we can to get buffs on our future Treants. Being able to follow it up withThe Forest’s Aidis the best case scenario. This is especially because even if our opponent can clear the first board full of Treants, we’ll be able to follow it up with another batch. We can also follow up with a low costMulchmuncherthat can deal with something on our opponent’s side of the board.
The name of the game is to pressure our opponent repeatedly with Treants and wide boards. Even if they can deal with some of these boards, we’ll usually have enough additional resources to continue to pressure them until they eventually succumb to it.
Card Substitutions
Here’s where we’re going to find a lot of our Treant synergy. There’s actually quite a few cards that could work in this type of deck, but some are more likely than others.
