Arcane Lighthouse —July 9, 2015

+1 Arcane Lighthouse
-1 Yavimaya Hollow

I think Arcane Lighthouse provides a better utility than being able to regenerate one creature. If Yavimaya Hollow tapped for green, I might reconsider it, but it taps for colorless, as does Lighthouse, so I'm not hamstringing myself for Green sources by making this swap.

You are the reason there is no mana burn any more.

Niwde9: I wouldn't make it past turn 5 if mana burn still existed lol.

With the amount of basic forests you're running I'd suggest Nissa, Worldwaker.

CastleSiege: I'm gonna quote myself from a Nissa explanation I gave on another Omnath page lol...

"I don't use Nissa either and a lot of the competitive Omnath decks omit her as well. Primal Hunter is pure win because he draws you a ton of cards when he hits the table and that's the only thing you'll ever use him for. You don't want to risk losing him on the field by activating his +1 to poop out a beast. The only time I can see using his +1 is if I have a Soul of New Phyrexia out and Garruk's Packleader and you got control of the table, but if you're at that point, you should have an engine going to where whatever you draw will be played and you got the game, so just draw 30 and end it :)"

I choose Garruk, Primal Hunter over her because he is better. Even Wildspeaker is a better choice because he untaps 2 lands, not just forest. Those 2 lands can be a Cradle or Nykthos.
