Hmm. Your mana looks pretty akward, consider adding at least 1 more kind of dual land such as Botanical Sanctum or Flooded Grove.

If a boardwipe hits while you have your 1 finisher on the battlefield, it seems like you will be struggling to win from that point on, even with JTMS. Same goes for discard.

If you are playing CC, you need to be playing at least two Mystic Sanctuary, it's so free and wins the game in some scenarios.

Is Bramblecrush really that good? The Annex in your maybe board might be better if what your doing ost of the time is blowing up lands. However, if you are snagging planeswalkers then I guess it's probably better. I would reccomend adding in more high-end threats, just like ponza plays. Stuff like Frost Titan will work fine, but just because Your creature has hexproof and can't be countered doesn't mean it's invincible.

You have a lot of basic lands and lands that enter tapped, if you have the budget I would invest in better mana fixing lands like Blooming Marsh, Botanical Sanctum, Breeding Pool, Exotic Orchard, ]Fabled Passage, Morphic Pool, Overgrown Tomb, Path of Ancestry, Reflecting Pool, Sunken Hollow, and Watery Grave would make the deck that much faster.

Some lands with great utility, again if you have the budget, Boseiju, Who Shelters All will help stop your spells get countered, as well as when it is multiplied by the likes of Nyxbloom Ancient you have 3 of that kind of mana to use on 3 different spells to keep from being countered. Cabal Coffers and Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx are both great ways to get tons of mana for your spells. And finally, Alchemist's Refuge gives all of your spells flash so when you have Seedborn Muse on the battlefield, you now have no limits on what you can cast.

About the landsbase; i would cut the fastlands, Botanical Sanctum & Razorverge Thicket, Seachrome Coast and put in the battlelands, Canopy Vista, Prairie Stream and a Temple of the False God or a Alchemist's Refuge or Novijen, Heart of Progress. This is far more efficient, battlelands have a basic supertype and are fetchable.

I would swap Birds of Paradise for a Chromatic Lantern or Dryad of the Ilysian Grove for the manafix.

Llanowar Elves for a Ramunap Excavator or Crucible of Worlds so you can cycle the fetches.

Balaam_ Welcome back to Magic! There are great budget and non-budget options for lands, I will list good lands below.

The best lands for this would be man lands, land that can turn into creatures, because you can sacrifice them to Jalira's ability. These include... Lumbering Falls, Mutavault, Faerie Conclave and Treetop Village.

Other good lands include... Botanical Sanctum, Flooded Grove, Hinterland Harbor and Waterlogged Grove.

Try not to add too many man lands!

People think blue is only a control colour, but blue is more than that. It is a combo colour, one that doesn't like winning through regular creatures and attacking. It gives you card advantage, and you managed to showcase that perfectly. Only counter things that could be problamatic to your gameplan! (or if that thing will kill you on the spot.)

I will write another comment on a sideboard suggestion.

I would upgrade the lands a bit in your deck, to make it win a lot faster and be more efficient! You have all the shock lands (Breeding Pool, Steam Vents, and Stomping Ground! You also have all the check lands (Hinterland Harbor, Sulfur Falls, and Rootbound Crag However, I would try and include some of the following:

• Filter Lands
• Flooded Grove
• Cascade Bluffs

• Fire-Lit Thicket

• Fast Lands

• Copperline Gorge
• Botanical Sanctum

• Spirebluff Canal

• Multicolor Lands

• Mana Confluence
• City of Brass
• Ancient Tomb
• Forbidden Orchard
• Reflecting Pool
• Prismatic Vista
• Gemstone Mine

• Fabled Passage

• Fetch Lands

• Scalding Tarn
• Wooded Foothills

• Misty Rainforest

• Some of these or even all of these might be out of your budget, but if you can spend the money I would highly recommend doing so, as good lands can help you win soooooo much more, especially in commander. Anyways, if you find this helpful be sure to upvote my deck Double Trouble EDH! So hope this helps, good luck on your deck, and have a great day.

Prospekt on Sultai Self-Mill

Okay so here's a bunch of suggestions that fit Gyruda's requirement and then some things to then take out.

Put in: Arcane Signet, Wake the Dead, Gravespawn Sovereign, Embalmer's Tools, Sakura-Tribe Elder, Disciple of Bolas, Forgotten Creation, Notion Thief, Oversold Cemetery, Skull Prophet, Clever Impersonator, Garruk Relentless  ^Flip, The Cauldron of Eternity, Sire of Stagnation, and Razaketh, the Foulblooded. The cards in your maybeboard seem good too.

Take out: Cranial Archive, Enhanced Surveillance, Devious Cover-Up, Gather the Pack, Migratory Greathorn, Polukranos, Unchained, Shepherd of Rot, Vengeful Dead, Void Beckoner, and all petitioners.

In terms of land, there are a lot of cheap options to include that will make a three color deck a lot better: Choked Estuary, Sunken Hollow, Botanical Sanctum, Blooming Marsh, Fetid Pools, Hissing Quagmire, Drowned Catacomb, Hinterland Harbor, Woodland Cemetery, Bad River, Ash Barrens, Dakmor Salvage, Exotic Orchard, Witch's Cottage, and stuff like that. Replace the guildgates and bounce lands and a few basics with those if you can.

And lastly if you want to run the petitioners then you should put more of them in, otherwise having just 8 won't do a whole lot for you most of the time other than for fun.

I would fix the lands a bit. You have some filter lands, bounce lands, fast lands, but not consistently for each color combination in sultai. Maybe consider adding some of the following:

• These are the Sultai Filter Lands:
• Twilight Mire
• Flooded Grove

• Sunken Ruins

• These are the Sultai Fast Lands

• Darkslick Shores
• Botanical Sanctum

• Blooming Marsh

• These are the Sultai Check Lands

• Drowned Catacomb
• Woodland Cemetery

• Hinterland Harbor

• These are the Sultai Shock Lands

• Watery Grave
• Overgrown Tomb

• Breeding Pool

• These are the Sultai Fetch Lands And Multi Fetch Lands

• Prismatic Vista
• Fabled Passage
• Verdant Catacombs
• Misty Rainforest

• Polluted Delta

• Sultai Pain Lands and Multi Pain Lands (And Other)

• Mana Confluence
• City of Brass
• Forbidden Orchard
• Exotic Orchard
• Ancient Tomb
• Nurturing Peatland/Llanowar Wastes
• Waterlogged Grove/Yavimaya Coast

• Underground River

• I'm not sure if these are within budget for you, but having consistent lands instead of having them all over the place work wonders! If you find this helpful consider upvoting and giving feedback to my deck: Double Trouble EDH! Good Luck on your Deck, Hope this Helps, and Have a Nice Day!
