Potential Cards —June 26, 2017
-
Solemnity which combos with Dark Depths and Glacial Chasm. The only problem is that it gives persist creatures an easy way to combo out.
-
Hour of Promise can search for 2 lands which is huge.
-
Ifnir Deadlands is another removal on a land that can be useful.
Thephelddagrif: Great suggestion, I might have to find some space for it. Thanks!

n0bunga: Awesome suggestions and Ramunap Excavator is literally Godsend. It's like the second coming of Christ for landfall decks. So excited to get my hand on that!

I've found infinite mill (vie Hedron Crab) to be a somewhat unreliable strategy in my metas at least (because so many people run Eldrazi titans). Perhaps swap it for Retreat to Hagra.
With only three basic lands, you could remove them and play a secondary Hermit Druid combo (with the odd finisher of Splendid Reclamation).
Also, since all the cards in your deck have distinct names, Tainted Pact is a surprisingly good tutor.
Speaking of tutors - since Retreat to Coralhelm seems to be important in so many combos, Enlightened Tutor is a must.
How about Tempt with Discovery?
Also, Knight of the Reliquary seems at least decent (though I suppose you may not have enough lands with basic types).
Take my +1 ;)

Daedalus19876: Thanks for your suggestions. I like the suggestion of Retreat to Hagra...tainted pact seemed kinda scary to be exiling a bunch of cards..could be worth testing out to find that last combo piece. I like Tempt with Discovery and I used to run it in my angry omnath..my playgroup however caught on and did not take the bait for this card to be worth it anymore unfortunately. Enlightened tutor is definitely going in!

Volrath's Stronghold? All of the Combo Payoffs with Infinite Landfall Triggers are creatures so I'm thinking the ability to get them or other creatures back would be useful, especially on a land. Also it keeps you from milling if it comes to that.
