Scapeshift, Primeval Titan, Azusa, Lost but Seeking, Explore, Golos, Tireless Pilgrim, Arboreal Grazer, Spelunking, Dryad of the Ilysian Grove would be some cards that are fun.

Springheart Nantuko is such a fun card to build around. there are some many combos i can think of that would be fun with it assuming you trigger the landfall trigger and play for the bestow cost. bestowing it on Arboreal Grazer would make you empty your hand of all lands, bestowing it on Azusa, Lost but Seeking or Dryad of the Ilysian Grove allows you to play an infinite amount of lands, and Golos, Tireless Pilgrim or Primeval Titan as it would allow you to automatically play all the lands in your library... though you would need Spelunking or Amulet of Vigor to make the lands enter untapped. if you really wanna some jank infinite combo, bestow it on Scute Swarm and have Ashaya, Soul of the Wild for infinite scute swarms and landfall triggers. i think the most janky combo i can think of with this card would be Life and Limb, Yavimaya, Cradle of Growth, Valakut, the Molten Pinnacle, and Mind Bend. if valakut and yavimaya are on the battlefield and you mind bend valakut to replace the mountain text with forest. you can bestow any of your lands and have valakut ping an infinite number of times.

anyways, Springheart Nantuko combo tangent aside, i highly recommend adding either Crucible of Worlds, Conduit of Worlds, Ramunap Excavator, Perennial Behemoth, and/or Walk-In Closet / Forgotten Cellar as it would allow you to recast your fetch lands from your graveyard every turn.

Wrong. Mana Crypt isn't a relic - it was the poster child of chase rares in Commander.

This is also not true though, Mana Crypt has always been a poster child of promo's. Promo for buying a book, Kaladesh Masterpieces, Ixalan Special Guests, Eternal Masters, Double Masters, Vintage Masters (online).

Until last week, Commander and Vintage were the only popular constructed formats you could play them in. You chased it to play it in commander, that doesn't mean it's a poster child voor the format. It was, as you said right after, a poster child for premium sets and series. None of those sets were printed specifically for Commander.

You can list a bunch of 3+-drops with conditional alternative casting costs, but those are not at all similar to a zero cost artifact that will start you 2 full turns ahead of everyone else.

Mana Crypt requires nothing in play, costs nothing, and does nothing but get you ahead in your game plan the earlier you play it. None of this is true of the cards you listed. They're strong and cheap and high value, but not at all free (except maybe Rograkh + C20 free spells, but that's also a restriction on deckbuilding). Which is probably why they didn't get banned. Jeweled Lotus also ticks 3 out of 3 though.

Cutting the chance on a broken opener by 2/3rds, I find probably a healthy change in the format. Not completely eliminating the chance by leaving Sol Ring is probably a good move too, the multiplayer aspect of the format is capable of compensating for that, up to a point. But the more broken zero/one mana plays, the bigger the chance you go past that point.

It sucks that I lost money off this ban announcement, but the games where these cards mattered most, are the games I enjoyed the least. I've been through enough Standard bans to know that the gameplay experience will probably improve significantly when cards this ubiquitous in the meta can't be played anymore. The same was true for Golos, Tireless Pilgrim, the last card to be banned in commander before this week.

Mortlocke I appreciate the response. And I get the feeling of key cards being banned, both for deck building and for finances (Extended -> Modern Reanimator Dredge: Golgari Grave-Troll, Dread Return, Deathrite Shaman, Bridge from Below, Hogaak, Arisen Necropolis, Faithless Looting,...), and the turn 1 eight mana was kind of an exaggeration. I don't think there's too much to worry about, though. Unless I'm forgetting something, the last ban was Golos, Tireless Pilgrim more than three years ago, so the RC doesn't seem to be super ban-happy. Sol Ring isn't going anywhere for now, and the other fast mana cards speed the game up by one turn, not three, so I think they're safe too. I might be naively optimistic, but I think the fetch lands and ABUR duals are as much a part of the game as Sol Ring, and again they don't provide 3+ mana. I'm more concerned about Strip Mine and Wasteland, honestly.

Haha Coward_Token, priceless. We see the true reason for the banning of Golos, Tireless Pilgrim

Speaking of flavorful to a setting, anyone have the delight of playing Prisoner's Dilemma? That spell is a freaking beauty if you like flat-out burning people, while watching players try to squirm their way out. Johnnie Tight-Lips says: "Go suck a lemon!"

THIS tangent ^ THIS time is because you are right to some extent. That Machiavellian, multiplayer bomb, along with several others were in the Commander release, so there is a decent chance of the Commander product completely blowing up my annoyance. Though, to be fair, the Clue set had more general multiplayer intrigue in the main set & just better mechanics throughout the main set at this point as well.

EnbyGolem Thanks for the comment and the upvotes. I tried make all my decks interesting and with a bit of synergy. With Golos, Tireless Pilgrim being banned in Commander, this deck did take a massive hit for it's power level and fun level. It is still a fun deck to use though.

Also, your username is cool ;)
