after much playtesting I am going to drop Birds of Paradise for Groundswell, this deck already has such efficient mana that the bird just seems redundant, and I think that I should utilize another more aggressive card. Since there aren't really any other good landfall creatures, I figured I'd use the best pump spell for a landfall deck

You definitely have an awesome looking deck here, but how exactly are you going to kill your opponents with so much mana? I would either run 4 Primeval Titan s or Kessig Wolf Run , or any other man/utility land that can dump all your mana into pure advantage. Gavony Township is another card you can consider. Awesome concept! All of the land drops!

I completely overlooked Kessig Wolf Run thanks for the heads up! I guess I was too worried about the color fixing! such a great way to abuse my late game mana flooding, will be added

I could see dropping one oracle and one lotus cobra for 2 courser of kruphix. gives life and lands more consistently

would you take the courser over the Knight of the Reliquary ?

I haven't played it at all, but it looks like you have plenty of ways to win without the knight, and courser lets you just azusa/crucible/fetchland for three landfall triggers a turn without losing any life. While trying to get rid of your land draws. while gaining you life in general. while being a body able to block a bit.

then the knight can work to filter you one land a turn (at the cost of tapping, so no filter/attacking together), he goes against a lot of what the rest of the deck wants (getting lands to graveyard instead of field, graveyard happens often enough, but staying there generally isn't the goal), I just feel like by the time the knight is good, the rest of your deck should be winning anyways

then, the knight does a lot of good for you if someone stops a crucible of worlds from happening. looking at everything they both have benefits and drawbacks, I would test with both and see which one tends to help you win (specifically, which gets you to a win that would have been more difficult without it, if one just feels like it's giving you a "win more" kind of deal that's the one that should stay out)
