Add Rofellos, Llanowar Emissary . He makes for a ridiculously huge Omnath.
as much as i love rofellos he is slightly out of my pricerange
My Omnath EDH is my favorite deck to play. Winning or losing, you're playing some of the most massive creatures in the game, and that's a blast to me.
Certainly, look for Defense of the Heart in the future. I see from one of your previous comments that budget is a consideration. Maybe you'll see one in a binder, and will be able to trade into it. Speaking of budget, while Ulamog, the Infinite Gyre and Kozilek, Butcher of Truth might be more than you want to spend right now, any of the cheaper Eldrazi could come in handy for utility removal (the Annihilator ability). Granted, you don't get to pick what's getting sac-ed, but I find it handy. Artisan of Kozilek is cheap, makes the defending player sac cards, and has the added bonus of potentially doing some recursion for you. Pathrazer of Ulamog beats some serious face. If you want to spend a little more, I love It That Betrays .
Primal Order deals massive damage to any opponents who are in multi-color. It makes you a target, though, so make sure you have a massive board presence before playing it.
Lurking Predators feels like you're cheating. Get one immediately! Seriously, you HAVE TO add that card right now. Also, a Quicksilver Amulet shouldn't set you back too much. You've got a ton of gigantic creatures (which you should), and having ways to cheat them into play is a needed benefit, I think.
Planar Portal comes down early and easy in an Omnath deck.
I like to run a lot of utility cards: Beast Within , Bramblecrush , Desert Twister , Mold Shambler , and Rain of Thorns . I think you could benefit from any or all of those. Argentum Armor is awesome too. I once got locked out of a game with Iona, Shield of Emeria set to green and was able to kill her with an active Planar Portal into Argentum Armor.
I like your Whispersilk Cloak inclusion. You might also want to run card:Trailblazer's Boots for redundancy.
Cool deck! And kudos on picking up on the massiveness that is Worldspine Wurm already. I can't wait to Amulet that guy into play, turn 5. Sheesh!
Oh, and I also recently added Staff of Nin and Cream of the Crop to my Omnath deck to help me find cards.
OH I forgot! Triumph of Ferocity . You need this uncommon. You will always have bigger creatures so it's a free card.
thanks for those recommendations im going to be updating the list as i playtest more
Is it kind of bad that you have all of those big creatures and the fact the deck that you have decided to make is more than 60? Do you think that this is a good ratio of how many times you get to play those big creatures?
This is EDH. You have to have 100 cards including the general, no more, no less. For information on EDH deckbuilding go here
not the greatest card, but Helix Pinnacle can always be fun. Also, I very much enjoy Gelatinous Genesis in my omnath EDH deck.
+1 for the awesome deck name. I'd like to help, but I don't know much about EDH/Commander metagame, and I barely know the rules.
If you has the cash I'd suggest card:Gaea's Cradle:3 A must for all Green decks IMO.
i definitely agree with you that card:Gaea's Cradle is amazing sadly i do not have the kind of money that is required to purchase it
Natural Order is like a legal green Tinker it's a little pricey but if you come upon any other cards you'd sell to buy more, id suggest getting it.
i will definitely be looking to trade for Natural Order if i see someone has it
Here's mine: Omnathland EDH
Overall, I think it's pretty solid. Some of the creatures don't seem that great, mainly just being big bodies.
Also, I always find that more evasion is good. Vorrac Battlehorns has been amazing in my deck, and Tiger Claws has won an incredible number of games for me.
If you do want to stay with the 'tons of big green things' theme, I'd recommend Primal Rage .
yeah most of the creatures are placeholders that i will be replacing as i get better ones
do you suppose Primal Surge would fit into the deck?
With 13 instants/sorceries he has a 13% chance to hit a chain stopper. Now that may not seem like much of a chance but in reality that's a lot.
Primal Surge can best be utilized when the percentage is 5% or below. (Even that is still pushing it.)
Rollover Minutes is my take on a primal surge deck.
yeah whenever i cast Genesis Wave i almost always hit a sorcery in the first 3-4 cards of my library
okay i did the math Primal Surge has about a 50 percent chance of hitting a non permanent by the 4th card it exiles
May i recommend Tooth and Nail along with Wild Pair ?
I like the deck. I would suggest maybe a few artifacts like Mask of Avacyn or Whispersilk Cloak to protect your commander. Pattern of Rebirth may be a good fit here too.
Please rate and comment on my deck
Rakdos: Multiplayer Commander
Same way you link cards? That's how you link decks.
Just trying to help ;)
Greater Good could be great in this deck since green rarely has access to good card draw. I had a friend who would sacrifice Omnath to Greater Good and use Nim Deathmantle to get him back. It basically worked like pay 4: draw 20 cards, then discard 3. You should have enough big creatures to make it worth while.
One word: Emrakul
One word: Banned.
If your running Extraplanar Lens you may want to run Snow-Covered Forest instead of just forest. If you're opponent has forest, then they benefit from the card effect as well.
I always loved Engulfing Slagwurm + Lure combo but I am not sure if it's effective in EDH. Maybe some one could comment on it.
I also love Terastodon ....9/9 with removal is a great card.
It's effective if you can assemble it. What you really need to ask is: "How does Lure work with the rest of my deck?" If the answer is "Bad" then you can't really justify it.
It is banned isnt it XP a shame
if I were you, I'd use a Helix Pinnacle ...it's just because I think it would be incredibly funny to see the look on someone's face when you pull it off
My friend has an Omnath Edh that owns all... I think you definitely have a pretty good deck here. I'm pretty sure you can't have Garruk Relentless Flip because of the Black color-identity on its flip side.
that's right, Garruk Relentless Flip 's color identity is green and black
so yeah i didnt realize that about garruk so he is out
i realize that Helix Pinnacle would work in this deck but its not the way i want to win
Helix Pinnacle is kind of a cheap win, but it is useful for getting out of sticky situations.
yeah its more that with my play group people generally frown upon such cards
Maybe Exploration for even more mana ramp. Feed the Pack since you've got huge creatures and then Overrun
at least sideboard it...it would be frowned upon in my group, but i'd do it anyway...my Sanguine Bond and Exquisite Blood combo in my orzhov deck is frowned upon as well but that doesn't stop me from doing it...if it's not how you wanna do it though, i suggest Mark of Sakiko as well

Sasaya, Orochi Ascendant with either Reliquary Tower or card:Venser's Journal.
i never have 7 or more lands in hand so i wouldn't get any value out of Sasaya, Orochi Ascendant and i dont draw enough for the other two
Primalcrux . Every. Monogreen. Need. ._. It's just such a huge monster, and it's not any more kill-able than Omnath. Correct me if I'm wrong, but it's my opinion.
If you do add Primalcrux, then you might want to pick up Khalni Hydra . A potentially free 8/8 is always nice.
Urban Burgeoning is horribly underplayed in these, even with just like 4 people you're looking at at least 3 extra mana each of your turns, and that's before anythings that makes land tap for more.
Urban Burgeoning is useless without having omnath out and it doesn't really replace anything in the deck
If you really want the untap effect you have to go all out with Seedborn Muse which you already have. There's also Patron of the Orochi to a lesser extent.
Yes I did build a deck that works without Omnath on the field because more often than not he will get removed or one of my opponents gets a Nevermore out which is why I like cards that can still help me win the game without relying on Omnath to be useful
I have been getting a lot of use out of Lurking Predators and card:Rogue's Passage in my Omnath build, Omnath edh on a budget
Your deck helped to inspire my own Omnath, Locus of Mana EDH deck: The Inexorable Force of Nature [EDH].
You absolutely need Sylvan Primordial, he should be a green staple.
I find when I play Sylvan Primordial that he just draws the tables hate I prefer the versatility of Terastodon over the primordial.I would suggest Canopy Cover to help protect your general + give him evasion.Another fun card with omanth is Momentous Fall .Loxodon Warhammer can also be a real life saver plus trample is always nice
oops didn't see your loxo hammer before I guess :P
ummmmmm no. I have 100...

You should really run Snow-Covered Forest s if you have Extraplanar Lens .
There are a ton of mana doublers that you can use, Caged Sun , Keeper of Progenitus , Heartbeat of Spring , and Mana Reflection .
Helix Pinnacle is a great alternate win con.
Aluren , card:Yeva, Nature's Herald, and Nim Deathmantle all allow you to get omnath back on the field before the mana disappears. Not only that but Nim Deathmantle can be paid for for each creature so if you swing into a bad situation you can "regenerate" your field.
More ideas but I'll just link Rollover Minutes so you can check out my take on Omnath.
