FAQ:  The "Basic-Land-Question" (because they are colorless permanents): "903.5d A card with a basic land type may be included in a Commander deck only if each color of mana it could produce is included in the commander’s color identity."

Nice deck, since you have a lot of lands that sacrifice themselves maybe Crucible of Worlds could be useful.

July 8, 2015 11:10 a.m.

PepsiAddicted says... #6

Yes 100%!! I want it! Its ontop of the card list in the update section. Its just not the cheapest card and this deck already broke my bank account ;)

July 8, 2015 11:25 a.m.

succeeddamnyou says... #7

Yeah, Crucible of Worlds does cost the earth, and then some. But hey, its commander. It wouldn't be fun if you weren't bankrupting yourself by playing.

PepsiAddicted says... #8

haha yes thats true

How about adding It That Betrays, it's really devastating with All Is Dust and can even wreck house on it's own

Just an idea... If you are highly considering Crucible of Worlds..., and I know that some of these are not very budget friendly but, you kind of need them anyway. More Wasteland effects which should be in every EDH deck anyway hahaha I'm so pretentious. I'm only kind of kidding though: land removal is hard to come by in EDH since cards like Sinkhole are color limited and eat away at precious card slots, meanwhile lands such as Boseiju, Who Shelters All, Maze of Ith and Dark Depths can win EDH matches single-handedly. Even if it seems pretentious, not having more than Strip Mine and Tectonic Edge lowers your odds of dealing with such threats.

If you have Crucible of Worlds, however, you can turn the tables entirely by running opponents out of lands. Without further ado here is the land removal lineup which you should consider: Wasteland, Ghost Quarter and Dust Bowl. Again I know its a lot to consider but there are less useful lands in your deck.

P.S. I noticed that you play Encroaching Wastes and accept that it technically counts as land destruction but a five mana activation is pretty steep so it's hard pressed to effectively deal with threats. And yes dust bowl is 4 but its recurrable.

Ahh finally some new suggestions! Ill take a closer look when i get home from work. I can already say you are right about some of my lands being useless - didnt put much time in it yet..

PepsiAddicted says... #12

alright, it was a long day.... now lets have a look:

as for It That Betrays, i love that card and i wish i had a reason to play it (been sitting in my binder since roe and i never played it) but unfortunately it doesnt fit in here. i have two reasons for that decision: first its not an artifact so it only has synergy with 2 other cards and thats All Is Dust and ugin (if you wonder about kozilek... it is card draw and mill protection as listed above). second i dont like annihilator effects because i like to keep my friends (there are only so many ppl playing edh in my area and on mtgo they often just quit when ur first 2 or three lands are LD utility)... for the same reason i dont use Mycosynth Lattice or Liquimetal Coating to remove lands except for instances where a specific land is not just a mana producer but an actual thread (and except against some very specific ppl that really WANT to play against the most crazy things, thats also when i put in the cards in the "sideboard").

As for the lands: i have 4 lands that i want to replace. encroaching wastes is one of them ;)

This is not a LD deck, even so Karn has more than plenty of ways to remove lands. for the same reason i dont really like annihilator abilities i dont use LD so much, mostly to get rid of threats you named DarkAnthem, funny enough i am the one winning with Dark Depths + Thespian's Stage . when i get crucible of worlds it will go into the "sideboard" list for those specific enemies mentioned above and then ill totally use my LD utility lands.

anyway i totally want Dust Bowl, its cheap so it will just go in the next time i buy cards (added to update list). Wasteland is pretty expensive so it might take a while, but in the long run its gonna get a spot (also added to list). encroaching wastes doesnt allow to replace the removed land, and mana is never an issue in this deck. infinite most of the time.

i think i covered everything. i really apreciate the input and every idea is welcome. keep them coming!

I love all 3 things about this deck: Artifacts, Lore, and fridges :P. Definite +1 from me

Best comment ever <3

You should put shimmer myr in the deck since you have unwinding clock, it would be like your own little version of seedborn muse or prophet of kruphix

July 12, 2015 5:25 p.m.

PepsiAddicted says... #16

yes i should... it was in an really early version of this deck and frankyl i cant remeber why i switched it out. its going back in....

July 12, 2015 5:28 p.m.

Awesome, I did a thing! :)

July 12, 2015 5:29 p.m.

PepsiAddicted says... #18

deathchobo says... #19

Planar Portal, Mishra's Helix, Temporal Aperture, Scroll Rack and Steel Hellkite dose would be my suggestion its the only card I use to run in my karn deck that I haven't seen in your I believe

July 25, 2015 5:02 a.m.

PepsiAddicted says... #20

hey, thx for your suggestions. Temporal Aperture is pretty awesome and will go on the list in the update section. the other cards are in the old stuff box above and were in older versions of this but had to make room for something else. Scroll Rack is in MB ofc.
