Changes made. 3 to be exact —Aug. 24, 2017

Took out Gyre Sage because it's too slow, Courser of Kruphix because it just doesn't do enough for the deck, and Nessian Wilds Ravager because he doesnt help do anything big

I put in Traverse the Outlands, this with my CMDR is huge! Put in Woodfall Primus for more removal something the deck needs. And put in Song of the Dryads great removal, great on CMDR's and on flavor with the deck.

Thanks to Podma101, Profet93, and Qolorful for helping me make cuts.

How often does Elderscale Wurm actually help?

@Deathstroke2791 Elderscale Wurm does provide an obstacle for my opponents. So yes it does do it job. Plus it's a 7/7 and that matters too. But honestly I was thinking Elderscale Wurm too... I also think Animist's Awakening could get cut too. After a just few of lands have been pulled from the deck Animist's Awakening does little to does nothing. What's do think about that card

The "untap those lands" clause would be reason enough for me to keep the Awakening. What about Boundless Realms.

Here's he thing about spell mastery in this deck. The instants and sorcery spells, half of them get lands. So by the time I use Awakening it doesnt work that good... just hate to take another ramp spell out of the deck. But it should be replaced with somthing better at least. As for Boundless Realms I need it. It pairs up so well with my big spells stuff like Genesis Wave

Cultivate, Kodama's Reach, Ranger's Path, Hunting Wilds could be more ramp spells

Momentous Fall, Hunter's Prowess, Soul's Majesty, Restock, Revive, Seasons Past could be more card draw

Fierce Empath is really good with woodland bellower.

possible cuts could include

predatory focus. This could be Thunderfoot Baloth or some other Overrun

font of mythos, howling mine, otherworld atlas - maybe run Horn of Greed, or Seer's Sundial

I have a ramp deck I've been working on as well that could use another set of eyes on if you don't mind, Radha, Butcher of Keld. Thanks!

Traverse the Outlands jas got to go in but what to take out?

My vote for a creature to cut for Traverse the Outlands would be either Gyre Sage or Nessian Wilds Ravager.

I feel like Gyre Sage can be slow and is generally less important than the other creatures, plus its a bad draw late game.

Nessian Wilds Ravager, while a fun card, gives an opponent a choice, and that usually means the opponent will get a better outcome.

As a side note, no Omnath, Locus of Mana? Seems like his kind of deck.

My vote for your cut would be one of the two mentioned prior, or Bellowing Tanglewurm. Gyre sage isnt really special outsider of counter bases decks. I think bellow wurm is One of the less important pieces in terms of redundancy. Siege behemoth does it better in my opinion, and trample often does the trick as well.
