I'm not sure how fast you usually end games, but I love Field of the Dead in my Voltron decks, it's ability to generate blockers is usually very relevant by the time it's active. It's best in a Green deck, where you often run land ramp effects over stuff like Arcane Signet, but technically if you fetch Jetmir's Garden it'll still enter tapped, and Signet doesn't, I just hate stuff like Vandalblast wiping me out, they price the effect so low. Anyways, if you wanted to run Field of the Dead, you would probably switch out 1 of each Basic for a Snow-Covered version (you'd only need 3, so it's not a big investment), these have a different name and can help turn on Field! Other things that might help Field work are Crop Rotation, since you run Ancient Tomb (and Sanctum!) I think this is a must anyways, Open the Way is a truly great ramp effect, Farseek is another spell that can find a typed dual or tri, the only thing it can't find is a Basic forest, which is usually fine when you've already got Green in my experience. Considering you're using some pretty strong lands I would consider Hour of Promise, it's a Primeval Titan trigger for less mana, but you just get the one. With lands this good getting two of them should give you a pretty big edge. Into the North can find a Snow land, which would help in a Field of the Dead deck. I suspect with a 5 mana Commander your deck will run smoother if you could find space for a few more lands, up to you obviously but I do suggest a few lands you could consider. At the same time I'd also toss in a few more ramp effects, Green has some good ones, ones that survive the board wipes people will be tutoring up vs a deck like this!

If you're on Serra Sanctum, I feel like mentioning a few cards I like to use with it, to eek out a bit more value. Ruin Ghost can flicker it and generate a bunch of mana, as can Nature's Chosen (which is even an Enchantment!), you might even look at Deserted Temple (probably the worst option all told). Kessig Wolf Run is a card I don't run with Sanctum (I don't have Red i that deck), but plays very well with large amounts of mana, and if you're stuck playing vs a guy that keeps wiping your board. I'm always impressed by it's ability to generate a threat from a weenie, I imagine it'll be more effective with your Commander. Normally I run Wolf Run as much for Trample as the buff, but you do have a lot of Trample sources in here.

Oh yeah, I just remembered a weird trick I like to use in a Boros deck (it was desperate for card draw and I didn't want to spend even more), I settled on using Crown of Flames and Flickering Ward as auras that I could recast over and over. You could also use Whip Silk if you wanted, but the only one of those that seems worth the include in a deck this competitive is Ward, which can make you very hard to block vs some boards, but I think you'd mostly have it to trigger your Enchantress cards.

ApophisWrath, Thanks for checking out the build and for the interest. I have updated the list to reflect my current build on Arena. Looks like I added 2 Revoke Existence to the mainboard to help deal with The One Ring and stuff like that, along with two land destruction lands to help deal with Field of the Dead. Also took out one Skyclave Apparition and put one Ajani, Strength of the Pride in as a potential one sided board wipe. He can also help boost your life total to 27 to trigger the Righteous Valkyrie. As far as the shock counters go, I'm not totally sure what to do about that. I heard of a card the other day that prevents players from getting counters altogether, though I cannot seem to remember the name of the card at the moment. Might not even be on Arena, could be a Modern Card. I'll see if I can dig up the answer. Maybe Solemnity? Good luck with the deck though, I'd love to hear it if you have any Ideas on new cards for mainboard slots. I was thinking about Get Lost, and Final Showdown as potentials.

At least formally, Emrakul, the Aeons Torn is not legal for EDH, so it's a strange decision. I would prefer Ulamog, the Defiler, Ulamog, the Ceaseless Hunger, or Zhulodok, Void Gorger as the commander, given legality issues.

Thank you for the suggestions UltimateRoxas40, they're great. I hadn't originally thought of adding Windgrace to the deck, but I should have, since I originally had some of his "play an extra land" effects in here.

I have a copy of both Urborg and Filth! I'll probably swap out one of the big bodies, maybe the Daemogoth for it.

The Necrobloom looks like a lot of fun too. Hard to pass up having Field of the Dead in your command zone. I think my best friend might end up building it.


Lol we seem to be on super similar wavelengths a lot of the time KBK7101. Are you thinking of building Disa the Restless? She looks like she could be fun with some Maskwood Nexus shenanigans.

On the note of similar wavelengths, I tend to be on a similar one with Noire_Samhain, when it comes to being interested in Graveyard & Aristocrats stuff. I also wanted to give them a shout out since the refinement of their Coram deck gave me ideas for mine as we brewed him in parallel.

OUT: Tree of Tales, Seat of the Synod, Great Furnace, Forest, Island, Mountain

IN: 2x Snow-Covered Forest, 2x Snow-Covered Island, 2x Snow-Covered Mountain

I saw the artifact lands on EDHRec and was looking for more land. Didn't realize Loot, the Key to Everything doesn't count types among your lands.

So I got "Rec'ed" and took them out to get a few snow basics in, hopefully to help enable Field of the Dead easier.
