Ah cool, that makes sense. Gotta match the level of the other decks in the pod. My playgroup has gotten pretty spiky so I have to be shrewd and only play the most powerful spells in my build. Of course, I could probably optimize my list further.

Bloom Tender is nuts, but Faeburrow Elder is really strong too, I'd play both if you can find a cut to make. Thanks for the upvote on my deck too!

jonno.scott Hey, thanks for taking the time to write the comment, my playgroup is more on the casual side, thats why im so light on the board wipes and use the "worse" versions of the gods :D Im still struggeling with myself to include other gods, than the theros ones, because I kind off like the feeling of having it only theros gods. I noticed Bloom Tender in your decklist, Ill consider changing Faeburrow Elder for it. (because I need less 3 drops, for a smoother curve)

Maybe I'm biased, but I feel like it's a crime to not run the Fate Reforged dragons at least. Dromoka, the Eternal and Kolaghan, the Storm's Fury hit almost as hard as Atarka, World Render , and Idk, I just love the "whenever a dragon you control attacks" clause because most of those effects slot so well into dragon tribal.

For ramp, Faeburrow Elder and Selvala, Heart of the Wilds goes a long way. Goldspan Dragon too. Not that this list needs more ramp, but I really like these options personally.

HorseTribalLord Not a fan of Esika, God of the Tree  ^Flip in that deck. Could be fun but I don't feel like making it fit for now. I might get The World Tree sometime, I just didn't get the chance to make any upgrade to the deck but it does fit.

Stumpy123 that's right, don't feel like dropping +50€ on a single card.

LilMissWiz for the price tag alone, Faeburrow Elder over Bloom Tender any day. Really not a fan of Shalai, Voice of Plenty , especially in this deck. I prefer Asceticism . I love Rhythm of the Wild .

Hey, good version of Overlord on a budget.

Unclaimed Territory is another budget Rainbow land with Slivers, it could replace Rupture Spire . The Battle lands would be budget upgrades since there's 18 basic lands to activate a Battle land.

• Cinder Glade --> Rugged Highlands
• Smoldering Marsh --> Bloodfell Caves
• Prairie Stream --> Wind-Scarred Crag
• Sunken Hollow --> Gateway Plaza

By adding the Battle lands then Farseek is two drop land ramp spell that can search for a dual land and it could replace Circuitous Route . Playing Tri lands with Bounce lands can be problematic when having to bounce a Tri land. Consider playing only the Tri lands and cutting the Bounce lands? Some budget Pain lands could replace the Bounce lands.

• Caves of Koilos --> Orzhov Basilica
• Shivan Reef --> Izzet Boilerworks
• Battlefield Forge --> Boros Garrison

These potential land upgrades can speed up game play since increasing the amount of lands that can ETB untapped and cutting ones that always ETB tapped. Crop Rotation is a budget land tutor that get any land and put it onto the battlefield and it's helpful when playing lots of basic lands. Faeburrow Elder is powerful in five color decks with so many possibilities from Slivers of having different colored permanents. Elder could replace Firemind Vessel .

---

Some other budget upgrades to consider:

• Necrotic Sliver ($0.25) --> Mortify
• Winged Sliver --> Shadow Sliver
• Dormant Sliver ($0.25) or Beast Whisperer --> First Sliver's Chosen
• Realmwalker --> Telekinetic Sliver
• Pact of the Serpent --> Prophetic Prism
• Preordain --> Ponder
• Victimize --> Return from Extinction

Shadow Sliver can be a problem not being able to block with Slivers. Dormant Sliver is repeatable draw, but Slivers can't attack until you remove it. Beast Whisperer can be a alternative to Dormant if not being able to attack is something you don't want to worry about. Preordain with scry 2 before draw is better than Ponder and it's less than $1.

Good luck with your deck.

I was thinking about Earthcraft , and budget isn't really an issue. It's more of I can't bring myself to spend that much on one card. Though my Tropical Island is a proxy(though i can replace that any time as needed).

Slightly unsure of what is gained with High Market other than life because token spam. Locals does allow proxies, but i wouldn't attempt to proxy something $500+ with Diamond Valley

Bloom Tender and Faeburrow Elder also really synergize well with your commander, turning into: Tap, put target elemental into play! Also Cascading Cataracts is a decent mana fixer!

A little surprised to not see Cultivate and Kodama's Reach in here! Easy way to single color fix and still fits with your green majority landbase

Interesting take on Bird Wizard! Not sure what your budget is, but Earthcraft would fit right in with your theme, leveraging advantage from token producers and provide an infinite combo with Squirrel Nest . Also Intruder Alarm works really well, as you can flash in your commander consistently and get more value from your tapping creatures and such!

Land suggestion would be something like High Market or if the group is ok with proxies Diamond Valley . Being able to block, then sac your commander and play it again at instant speed over and over is a consistent utility to help grind to the end game when you can overwhelm with your token producers.

A fun option for the deck could also be Mirrormade , doubling down on your powerhouse enchantments and artifacts.

Faeburrow Elder is another cheap Bloom Tender

If you're wanting a more spikey sort of game, something like Armageddon or Stasis fits in. You can really take advantage of your commander's untap ability, as you can continue to pay for the mana cost by attacking with your commander. Timed with a token producer or your mana rocks, you can grind out the game, swinging your commander and slowly building up tokens.
