So this is my first attempt at a land destruction deck. I saw how much horrifying land destruction there was in standard and knew I had to attempt this. It runs big creatures and mana dorks for ramp, then you want to Fall of the Thran leading into Remorseful Cleric. If you do this turn 4 (I believe the earliest it can be done?) then you basically shut your opponent's deck off. Between that and all the white control here you should be able to consistently swing with Grunn or Ghalta and take the opponent out (or rather, that's the goal).

Tragic Poet makes sure their lands STAY gone, as well as gets your removal/control enchantments back.

You're running 11 elves for mana ramp. Marwyn can become bigger for both mana and Ghalta cost reducers, and is also unaffected by your "oh !@#$" button of Urza's Ruinous Blast; this is true for Ghalta and Grunn as well, meaning some of your ramp and all your beatsticks survive your boardwipe.

Elfhame Druid is double ramp for Grunn, or else I'd run Druid of the Cowl instead.

Sideboard is mostly up in the air; suggestions are always welcome. Suggestions for card draw, tutors, or general improvements are also welcome.
