Swing and a Miss

Today on Daily MTG, wizards posted the deck list for Teeth of the Predator, the Garruk deck based off of the video game Duels of the Planeswalkers. These pre-built 60 card decks are going for $15 each, but if I intend to get any of them, it will certainly not be Garruk's deck. Heres the decklist:

24 Forest

4 Civic Wayfinder
1 Duskdale Wurm
2 Giant Spider
1 Molimo, Maro-Sorcerer
1 River Boa
1 Roughshod Mentor
3 Runeclaw Bear
2 Spined Wurm
2 Trained Armodon
1 Troll Ascetic
1 Verdant Force
1 Vigor
2 Wall of Wood

2 Blanchwood Armor
3 Giant Growth
1 Howl of the Night Pack
1 Loxodon Warhammer
1 Natural Spring
2 Overrun
2 Rampant Growth
2 Wurm's Tooth

The first thing I was looking for in Garruk's deck was Garruk himself, but he isn't in here. It wouldn't be peculier at all to include a planeswalker in a box set, they have already released 4 planeswalkers in Box sets: Jace Beleran & Chandra Nalaar in Jace vs Chandra, and Garruk Wildspeaker & Lilliana Vess in Garruk vs Lilliana. Maybe they don't want to make too easy to get plaeswalkers? Everyone loves them, and they're not even all tournament staples. Of the 4 I just mentioned Garruk is the only one who sees play in high level tournaments. Jace is still good, but the Mind Sculptor has bumped Beleran down a level. Anyways, beyond the dissapointment of not having a planeswalker in a deck named after him, there are 5 rares in this deck: Molimo, Troll Ascetic, Verdant Force, Vigor, and Loxodon Warhammer. 3 of these guys have already been rares in recent box decks: Molimo (Tenth Edition starter deck), Verdant Force (Elemental Thunder Planeschase), and Loxodon Warhammer (Metallic Dreams Planeschase). None of these rares are insanely exciting, and we still don't know what booster pack will be included with the deck, ROE?

Another thing about the Duels of the Planeswalkers decks, there are 5 of them. There are 5 colors in MTG. Wouldn't it make sense to have a deck every color? Wizards apparently has stopped doing things that make sense and replaced the white deck for another green/black deck, featuring (well, at least named after) Nissa Revane. I will not spend a penny on this product. The only one i was interested in getting was Jace's because I could use Jace, but if one deck doesn't have the planeswalker you can expect that none of them will.
