Burning Sands

Enchantment

Whenever a creature is put into a graveyard from play, that creature's controller sacrifices a land.

Mana rock tribal meets land destruction. I'm in :)

Impending Disaster AND Planar Collapse I like seeing both of these in the same deck. Great use of Magus of the Balance!

Mudslide and/or Smoke would be useful tax.

Pendrell Mists + Burning Sands No creatures and no lands... is this not your deck in a nutshell?

Land Tax and Seismic Assault might be useful.

Humility if you truly hate your friends.

Sevinne's Reclamation recycles a good chunk of the deck.

Burning Sands should stay red. It fits with land destruction. The only other viable color would be black.

I agree with your assessment of Smoke being in the wrong color(s) but what color do you think Burning Sands should be shifted to? Maybe black. Not white or green. Blue would be the Legends version haha.

I see what you mean about creatures. I need to make a few cuts.

I agree that modern players and sets just aren't what they used to be. Luckily there are still old school players out there that play older cards and surprise you with their innovation. I actually cut Sadistic Sacrament from my Oloro deck. I needed the space for more tutors and counterspells lol. Honestly, I figured out over time that having multiple tutor cards is broken in EDH. You can have the best deck idea out there but if you can't get the cards, it doesn't matter. Also, I wished cards like Burning Sands and Smoke were printed in colors other than red. I tried to make a red control deck once but quickly realized that red doesn't have enough good cards for it without using creatures. Red and Black together works well but I didn't find a good commander so I just decided to move on. Btw, I don't know if you use discord or not, but we could talk at length about magic there if you'd like. I moved states and I don't have a current play group so it's been a while since I've talked much about magic with people.

Modern WOTC sucks. It is full of pseudo intellectual weirdos. The kids that used to play Yu-Gi-Oh that transitioned into MTG. They brought the power creep and the endless over printed products. Timmy likes turning big dudes sideways. I like getting new reanimation targets but it's been in an unhealthy place for a few years. I miss 1 big set/ 2 secondary sets/1 core set/1 special release. GREAT formula.

I too am big on enchantments. Just did a building exercise on enchantress in each color.

Tainted aether is fun. Burning Sands is another one. Combos with the king of fun Pendrell Mists

Sadistic Sacrament = GG in your meta

Such a clever concept. Big fan of "less is more" and this list is it. I too have an Izzet 43 Lands.dec list piloted by Keranos but my theme/gimmick was Legacy 43 lands.dec your glass cannon heavy land based combo is awesome!

I'm going to spit ball some ideas because your list got my creative juices flowing:

Cursed Scroll that many basics makes this efficient colorless damage.

Valakut, the Molten Pinnacle make something out of all those basic mountains.

Fiery Islet/Prismari Campus high quality filter and card draw.

Tolaria West tutor for the utility lands.

Burning Sands/Mana BreachOverburden I always try and sneak a stax tax or 2 in my combo decks. These similar cards are an irrelevant tax to you but brutal to aggro strategies.

Back to Basics brutal to greedy mana bases.

Retreat to Coralhelm/Valakut Exploration good value for playing lands.

Fathom Trawl cascade tutor. Treasure Hunt #2

Cut Tectonic Reformation. Add Trade Routes. The synergy with Seismic Assault is necessary to your strategy.

When you add that Mana Web make sure to add Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth for additional group thuggery.

Burning Sands might be worth a spot.

Forsaken Wastes the OG anti-life.
