I have some land suggestions for you! Not all of them are great, but some of them could be pretty snazzy.
-
Vivid Grove, Vivid Meadow, Vivid Marsh and Vivid Creek are all any color lands that just need you to proliferate every once in a while.
-
Peat Bog, Hickory Woodlot, Saprazzan Skerry, Remote Farm, and Throne of Makindi are all two-for-one mana sources, so long as you proliferate.
-
Saltcrusted Steppe, Dreadship Reef, and Calciform Pools are all dual color storage lands and could all be big pay offs late game.
-
Novijen, Heart of Progress, Hall of Oracles, Oran-Rief, the Vastwood, Animal Sanctuary, Tyrite Sanctum, Nesting Grounds, Llanowar Reborn, Gavony Township, and Karn's Bastion are all just cards that relate to tokens on your creatures.
-
Hostile Hostel Flip lets you get a big, mean creature in exchange for sacrifices one small dude.
-
Crawling Barrens can get activated once, forgotten until someone doesn't have blockers, then swing with an absolute tank.
-
Fountain of Cho, Icatian Store, Subterranean Hangar, Bottomless Vault, Rushwood Grove, Hollow Trees, Saprazzan Cove, and Sand Silos are the same as the above, but inarguably worse. Idunno, could be even snazzy late-game, but like, ehhh, nah, probably not.

Gidgetimer, I perfectly understand that, since, I also, have cards that work with specific strategies, but otherwise are lackluster, such as the storage lands (Calciform Pools, Dreadship Reef, and so forth), which are far too slow and inefficient in most decks, but are amazing in a deck dedicated to proliferating.

Hey there! No problem, and you have definitely come to the right place! Here are some types of lands that I personally think should have a spot in every deck, and some multi-colored lands that work anywhere and everywhere! I hope this helps you throughout your journey in the world of magic.
-
Types of Lands:
-
Shock Lands
- These lands say when [cardname] enters the battlefield you either take two, or have it enter tapped, which I am sure you are familiar with.
-
Watery Grave, Blood Crypt, Temple Garden, Breeding Pool, Hallowed Fountain, Stomping Ground, Sacred Foundry, Overgrown Tomb, Steam Vents and Godless Shrine
-
Check Lands
- These are lands that say, [cardname] enters the battlefield tapped unless you control a [land type] or [land type]. These aren't always that good in my opinion, but if you need a cheaper option they are MUCH better than guildgates, etc.
-
Glacial Fortress, Drowned Catacomb, Woodland Cemetery, Dragonskull Summit, Isolated Chapel, Rootbound Crag, Sunpetal Grove, Hinterland Harbor, Sulfur Falls, and Clifftop Retreat
-
Filter Lands
- Similar to the signets, these lands can be extremely useful when you have one color, and need the other. They are also a lot cheaper as they just got reprinted in Double Masters
-
Wooded Bastion, Sunken Ruins, Mystic Gate, Flooded Grove, Rugged Prairie, Graven Cairns, Fire-Lit Thicket, Fetid Heath, Twilight Mire, Cascade Bluffs
-
Fast Lands
- Some of my personal favorites, these lands can be untapped unless you have 4+ lands, and are very helpful at the start of the game
-
Seachrome Coast, Razorverge Thicket, Botanical Sanctum, Copperline Gorge, Blackcleave Cliffs, Darkslick Shores, Blooming Marsh, Concealed Courtyard, Spirebluff Canal, Inspiring Vantage
-
Pain Lands
- These are by far some of the best, as you always know you can get mana from them, without worrying they might be tapped, or untapped, or something like that.
-
Adarkar Wastes, Underground River, Sulfurous Springs, Karplusan Forest, Brushland, Caves of Koilos, Llanowar Wastes, Yavimaya Coast, Shivan Reef, Battlefield Forge
-
Horizon Lands
- The better version of pain lands- but they are not printed in every color combination. However when you can, cut your pain lands for these!
-
Horizon Canopy, Silent Clearing, Nurturing Peatland, Waterlogged Grove, Fiery Islet, Sunbaked Canyon
-
Fetch Lands
- There are also the beloved fetch lands, which can even search for shock lands, proving to be very useful in many situations!
-
Flooded Strand, Bloodstained Mire, Windswept Heath, Wooded Foothills, Polluted Delta, Misty Rainforest, Marsh Flats, Verdant Catacombs, Arid Mesa, Scalding Tarn
-
Battlebond Lands
- These are EXTREMELY useful if you have multiple opponents, as they come at no extra cost. However like the Horizon lands, they are not available in every color.
- Sea of Clouds, Morphic Pool, Luxury Suite, Spire Garden, Bountiful Promenade
These dual lands are some of the best, and my favorites, though there are many more people enjoy playing, such as bounce ladnds (Dimir Aqueduct), Battle Lands (Sunken Hollow), Reveal Lands, (Port Town), Cycle Lands (Irrigated Farmland), Storage Lands (Calciform Pools) and many others, but usually you don't have this many spaces in your deck, and so the ones I named first are usually better. However, I'm not done! There are many multicolor lands that fit in any deck, that are extremely powerful! Some of them are listed below.
- City of Brass
- Mana Confluence
- Prismatic Vista
- Fabled Passage
- Ancient Tomb
- Exotic Orchard
- Command Tower
- Forbidden Orchard
- Gemstone Mine
- Gemstone Caverns
- Command Tower
- Maze of Ith
- Strip Mine
- Wasteland
- Tarnished Citadel
-
Etc. There are many more like this but as before, the ones above are definitely the best, and most of them deserve a spot in every deck! Some specific deck themes have their own versions of these lands, like for Artifact decks you might play Glimmervoid and for Creature decks you might play Ancient Ziggurat. Usually, when I deckbuild i go to EDHREC, which has amazing suggestions and synergies for EVERY commander, and even for specific archetypes and colors- lands among them! For these speciifc themes you can find the lands you need there (along with many other cards too) but everything I named above I recommend playing in the meantime! I hope this helps you in your future decks, thanks for reaching out, good luck, and have a great day!

Atraxa, But Its Energy
4 years ago
So I recently put Calciform Pools, Dreadship Reef, and Saltcrusted Steppe in my deck. Regrettably I haven't had a chance to see them in play yet. I've had Mirrodin's Core out and it was working great so I figured why not 3 more storage lands. Whats your take on this?

ebonyks your deck look great, when I've started this deck I want to make a stax deck but I found out it was more fun mixing all the planeswalker and discovering new interaction between all of them. I need to be honest, Jace, Cunning Castaway seem better than I think.

DemonDragonJ on Mage-Ring Network or Gavony Township?
5 years ago
In my Atraxa EDH deck, I currently have four "storage lands:" Saltcrusted Steppe , Dreadship Reef , Calciform Pools , and Mage-Ring Network , because they have great synergy with such a deck.
However, I really want to put a Gavony Township in that deck, so I am contemplating removing the Mage-Ring Network , since a land that can produce only colorless mana may not be the best option for a four-colored deck, but I wish to ask the advice of other users here, before I make a decision. Ironically, that deck did have the township, originally, but I removed it in favor of Karn's Bastion .
What does everyone else say about this? Between Mage-Ring Network and Gavony Township , which is the better card for my deck?
DemonDragonJ on Storage Lands in an Atraxa …
5 years ago
I have an EDH deck with Atraxa as its general, and that deck has all four triple lands that are supported in her colors ( Arcane Sanctum , Sandsteppe Citadel , Seaside Citadel , and Opulent Palace ), which are great lands, but they enter the battlefield tapped, so I am seeking replacements for them.
I cannot believe that I did not consider the “storage lands,” the lands that use storage counters, when I was building the deck, as they would be absolutely perfect for a deck that focuses on the proliferate mechanic, but I wish to seek advice from the other users on this forum before I put those lands in my deck.
The storage lands that I am considering for my deck are Calciform Pools , Dreadship Reef , Saltcrusted Steppe , and Mage-Ring Network . What does everyone else say about this? Are those lands good for an Atraxa EDH deck?
