Lower the curve. Plan on running no more than 10 cards that cost 4 or more mana (ideally fewer), and rely on casting multiple small spells a turn rather than one or two big ones. Probably also cut the Decree of Annihilation effects, though Wildfire, Tectonic Break, Devastating Dreams, and Epicenter are more interesting. Territorial Dispute would be an amusing inclusion.

One of my favorite phrases in magic that I've used to describe the experience is:

"Maybe the cards you want to use haven't been printed yet" and the feeling is so strong here.

I deeply love your imagination to use Dingus as a tribal element but since black is a core color here.. you could run an 8-rack-esque deck, but my card knowledge is spotty prior to 2006.. at best.

Bro if u play with Worldfire, I think u should also play with Obliterate and Decree of Annihilation. I win a lot just bc of these 2.

U can see my deck Thicc Jhoira.

You could be playing with extra turn cards, they are extremely decent. Also with some other bombs like Mnemonic Deluge and goodies like Wild-Magic Sorcerer and Narset, Parter of Veils.

And if u care about which cards I would take out, Thought Reflection and Magmatic Force would be my suggestion.

More unfun if they keep printing exile + "play as long as in exile" would be adding those to Decree of Annihilation or Worldfire recovery types of decks :)

I think a Knollspine Dragon would fit in really well. With all of the power boosters in the deck you could draw quite a few cards and Magda let's you tutor it. Also you might want to add in a Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker as a backup piece to go infinite with Worldgorger Dragon, although Flameshadow Conjuring already works with that. Additionally Worldgorger Dragon goes really well with both Worldfire and Decree of Annihilation because you get your permanents back. I would also consider adding a mana doubler or two Caged Sun and Gauntlet of Power would both work well.

You should I've played a few land hate decks in my time and they're always a fun challenge trying to properly balance your need for resources, hating on your opponents and trying to get them not to kill you. When Omnath, Locus of Rage and The Gitrog Monster came out my playgroups heavily spiked their play level and their use of Land based decks. I've got a lot of fond memories from that time of my Zo-Zu deck. I might recommend Decree of Annihilation, it's cycling effect is a good alternative MLD option as it's both instant speed and very annoying to counter.

griffstick I understand AND agree with your point, but I can’t stop grinning to myself at the thought of watching the MLD-player scramble, attempting to not die to a Havoc Festival after finally getting to cycle the Decree of Annihilation he/she has been holding since the beginning of the game.

griffstick outside of Decree of Annihilation I'd argue all MLD can be interacted with on the same axis as any other spell. It can be countered with multitudes of spells or completely ignored if you have things like Heroic Intervention and Teferi's Protection . The circumstances when it becomes "cheap" is when you play the card knowing no one is going to interact with it - which is typically in casual play where blue for the most part is taboo and cards exceeding the cost of a pack are frowned upon.
