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.

i believe Magus of the Balance + Teferi's Protection + Ignorant Bliss would be the correct stack order.

So black isn't the only color that can strip your opponent hands of cards. That other color is white, and red can do it too. Those cards are symmetrical though. But what if there was a way to do it in boros.

Now I haven't looked to see if there are other ways to do this but I really like this combo. I like it because it uses a card called Ignorant Bliss .

Magus of the Balance + Ignorant Bliss

Have you considered Fall of the Thran , Cataclysm , Restore Balance , Magus of the Balance , and/or Storm Cauldron ? All are fun stax/land destruction pieces.

Constant Mists and Glacial Chasm might be good stall pieces until you can get a win-con going.

+1, cool deck. Reminds me of my Jund take on land destruction:

Not really into cEDH (other than by watching the Spike Feeders & Playing With Power MTG) so take my thoughts with a pinch of salt:

Sanctum Prelate another flexible stax piece

Reliquary Monk some more flexible ETB item removal (tbh not really a fan of those; seems like a kinda puny Winota reward)

tapping humans, dunno if they're too slow: Nova Cleric, Magus of the Balance, Hammer Mage, Bounty Agent, Mangara of Corondor

niche hosers: Harsh Mentor, Aegis of the Gods

non-Human stax/hatebears/hosers that can enable Winota without risking themselves too much: Kinjalli's Sunwing, Leonin Arbiter, Vryn Wingmare, Rampaging Ferocidon

I feel the Auratouched Conscription combo to be gimmicky, esp. since you won't benefit from annihilator until the next turn

That depends what you value more. They both take a full turn cycle to go off (unless you give the magus haste) spending 7 mana to to clear most or some creatures, discarding a few cards and destroying some lands. Or 2 mana wipe the board. Magus of the Balance is good but it gives your opponents more the choice of what to get rid of.I can really only see balancing once or twice a game. You get to keep a few select creatures after the balance resolves but so do your opponents.

That seems like a good inclusion. How do you think that compares to Magus of the Balance? That's what I would take out, I were to slot that in.
