Deck Strategy:

• The key to winning with this deck is to come out fast and furious. Ten of the monkeys can be played within the first two turns, so you should be able to get some early damage. If you get off to a really fast start, use the Gaint Growths to increase your damage. If your attack slows down, you can finish off your opponent with a Hurricane.
• Don't wait around to cast the Bestial Furies and Gorilla War Cry. These cards are cantrips, made to replace themselves, so use them early. It doesn't do any good to hold a Bestial Fury in your hand while waiting for the 'perfect' target.
• We couldn't resist putting a Lure in the deck... you know what it's for. Slap it on a Gorilla Berserkera and do some serious damage.
• The deck doesn't have much defense against flying creatures, but one effective stopper is a flying Gorilla Chieftain (and you thought that only happened in "The Wizard of Oz"). Use the Whalebone Glider to give yourself a 3/3 flying, regenerating blocker.
• Gargantuan Gorilla: This big boy can give you the game, but he can also take it away from you. Make sure you're in a position to handle him for a few turns when you bring him into play. If you don't need King Kong's help, don't enlist him.
