Woah, first suggestion update —June 5, 2020

First of all, this update was thanks to Moose-Storm. Shared animosity was added to replace seer’s sundial. This suggestion has added a combo with Omnath. It will allow the elemental tokens and Omnath to be buffed.

Excellent start on your primer. I understand your long term goal with this deck page is for it to become a reference guide of sorts, which is an awesome goal. What helped me get there was two things:

  1. Trial and Error: My decks have gone through many iterations, experiments, and peer reviews. I use any and every resource I have at my disposal, which are:
    • MTGAssist.com - One of, if not the best resource for finding cards that are similar in function to other cards.
    • EDHREC.com - A very popular site, which I would be surprised if you didn't already know about already. It has definitely helped me over the years though.
    • The TappedOut Community - Advertising my deck, seeking critique, etc definitely helped. Additionally, if you finally ever get discord, you could join the tappedout discord channel and get critique and advice directly.
    • Your playgroup - This is probably the most important resource, as your friends or local LGS group can provide help from a unique perspective as they are the ones who are always facing against your decks. They can tell you about distinct weaknesses that they see be it interaction, tempo, etc.

Lastly, the greatest piece of advice I could impart onto you is having the mentality to always be evolving and growing as a player. There is something to be gained from each win or loss - a better understanding of yourself and how you react to other players attitudes, how you feel when being focused down on by the table when/if you get too far ahead and that's just to name a few. I guess what i'm trying to say is that as you play the game, learn. Always. Then, as you discover and learn new things about your deck update your deck page to reflect that - but always try and keep your deck descriptions neat, and concise. Try and stick to a few central key points about your deck to help people who have never played it have a good understanding of what the deck is trying to accomplish.

Hey Yarok,

I just went over your Mana Echoes update and recommend you should look at the wording/rulings for Perilous Forays when it comes to your Mana Echoes + Perilous Forays + Omnath, Locus of Rage combo. The ruling says specifically:

You may find any card with Plains, Island, Swamp, Mountain, or Forest on its type line. The land doesn’t need to be a basic land, so you can find a land such as Overgrown Tomb or Tropical Island.

So, you're not limited to only basics with that combo. Also, keep in mind that as you're sacrificing Elemental creatures, Rave-nath triggers, dealing 3 damage to a creature or player. Seems like you can end the game or at the very least a player or two with that combo.

Cool deck, have you considered Shared Animosity since you have a tribal build going? Could definitely have a huge overrun effect with Omnath.
