The main idea is to use Elvish Reclaimer + Flagstones of Trokair . And obviously a toolbox package of lands which stand out in different matchups.
- Gavony Township vs Humans and E-Tron
- Bojuka Bog vs Phoenix and anything else
- Stirring Wildwood when I need to block Arclight Phoenix or Mantis Rider
- Field of Ruin and Ghost Quarter vs tron and UW and Jund
- Sejiri Steppe on a board stall. This card seriously wins games.
- Blast Zone to beat awful things like Ensnaring Bridge . This might be moved to the sideboard.
I wasn't sure what else to play, so I'm playing Collected Company and Eladamri's Call . Eladamri's Call feels like bad Green Sun's Zenith , but it is nice to tutor up Collector Ouphe or Scavenging Ooze or Tireless Tracker .
I own the lands to splash other colors but I don't know what cards to splash for. Wrenn and Six is too expensive.
The deck feels clunky. Especially against Phoenix. I have the tools to wreck them but sometimes they're 1 turn too late or they simply have Lightning Bolt or 2 bolts and I can't stick a critical creature.
Any suggestions for the main deck or sideboard? Thanks!

So with the faithless looting ban the meta is gonna change so bog is questionable. Tapped lands are slow especially considering things with E tron where giving them time is bad. Green sun is banned but there is a GGX version of it from War of the Spark.

Have you tried Ayula's Influence / Life from the Loam to get more value from putting lands into the yard?
With SFM and everyone playing midrange for the first time in a long while, being either the 'best at midrange' or specifically packing tools to fight batterskull will do a lot.
