That's exactly my point tho... any land other than Deserted Temple would provide you with 3 mana total from all land sources on turn 2 as well (*if you play a tap2 land on T1)...

• T1, play Ugin's Labyrinth or Eldrazi Temple
• T2, play Deserted Temple, tap Lab for {C}{C}... now, if you spend {C} to activate Deserted Temple and untap Ugin's Labyrinth (to tap it again for 2 mana) you end up with {C}{C}{C} in the mana pool, which is nice, but any other land would just naturally tap for that third mana anyway, if you start your T1 with Labyrinth... Deserted Temple is almost a basic Wastes in most cases unless you have a bunch of mana and a Urza's Saga on II.

I guess what I'm saying is you could look for replacements of Deserted Temple which add maybe utility or sth else without actually sacrificing anything important here imho. Maybe even go with a split: 1x Gemstone Caverns 2x Cavern of Souls 1x Blast Zone you have many great options actually ... Inventors' Fair, Mutavault.

Sorry if I'm being annoying, that's not my intention, I just feel you're overselling the role of Deserted Temple in this particular deck imho, which I still think is very nice no matter if you keep deserted temple or not.

Cheers!

Sorry to double post, but I just realized that Umbral Mantle might be fun to play around with here. Not too sure how powerful it will be, but you have lots of options to use an untap.

Also, Urza's Saga and Inventors' Fair seem like they'd be good for finding artifacts

As folks keep posting on this long-dead thread to ask questions, I am going to lock it. Anyone with a question should ask it on the Rules Q&A section of this site: Link.

redfoxfire - Yes, you can use Lithoform Engine to copy the activated ability of Inventors' Fair.

This looks like fun! You are inspiring me to build my own Yusri deck!

Ferrous Lake and Inventors' Fair might be handy lands. If you ever need another wincon Jace, Wielder of Mysteries would fit in great to your Planeswalker slot.

The big question is - what format is this deck trying to be and what is your budget? Obviously this will never be competitive, but if cards from any edition are allowed, you have hundreds of choices:

• Braided Net  ^Flip - This is a Tumble Magnet with multiple advantages. It can stop Planeswalkers what the original magnet could not. It stops other activated abilities. It can draw a lot of cards. Note that once again, the other side can be untapped in reaction to the activation, so you'll have the effect twice.
• Manifold Key - Strictly better than Voltaic Key
• The Enigma Jewel  ^Flip - another mana source for activated abilities. However, it legendary, so play at most one.
• Pithing Needle - stops problematic Planeswalker and can be found by a Trinket Mage
• Relic of Progenitus - stops graveyard strategies without hurting your deck. Even when the opponent doesn't have anything with graveyard, this can draw a card to replace itself. Can be found by a Trinket Mage
• Experimental Augury - reasonably cheap card selection that proliferates.
• Vesuva, Tolaria West - If you ever want more Locus Lands.
• Urza's Tower, Urza's Power Plant, Urza's Tower, Expedition Map - alternative mana base instead of Cloudpost.
• Moonsnare Prototype - One mana accelerator.
• Inventors' Fair is artifact tutor and a life gain on a land.

If you REALLY want to go all in on counters and play older cards:

- Hickory Woodlot, Saprazzan Skerry, Peat Bog, Sandstone Needle, Remote Farm are lands that produce two mana as long as you are able to proliferate each turn. Pentad Prism is an artifact that effectively produces mana when you proliferate.

Using Tiamat as the commander, casting and fetching Ziatora, the Incinerator and Kura, the Boundless Sky you can use the land tutor and treasures to do the following combos.

Consider adding Inventors' Fair, This can be tutored for by Kura and can then fetch Maskwood Nexus.

Faceless Haven could also be a good add, by fetching it, and Inventor's Fair, you could then fetch The Book of Exalted Deeds, if you add it, and get that combo out.

Ashaya, Soul of the Wild would allow all creatures to also be landfall triggers.

Staff of the Sun Magus a proper engine.

Chivalric Alliance efficient card draw + a cheap discard outlet

Inventors' Fair consistent +1 plus a great tutor.

Nomad Stadium +4 threshold and reanimator go hand in hand.

Akroma, Angel of Wrath the quintessential white bomb.

Odric, Lunarch Marshal has potential.
