Life from the Loam

Sorcery

Return up to three target land cards from your graveyard to your hand.

Dredge 3 (If you would draw a card, instead you may put exactly three cards from the top of your library into your graveyard. If you do, return this card from your graveyard to your hand. Otherwise, draw a card.)

A few cards I've been thinking about:

Life from the Loam, Spry and Mighty, Genesis Wave, Dramatic Entrance, & Surrak, the Hunt Caller.

JaymeRoolz42069: Good question - currently Strip Mine is not part of the meta I play in, so I haven't given it much investment. Slower effects like Avalanche Riders come up from time to time, and when they do FotD is such a powerful card I think 'oh well fair enough'. Vesuva making a second FotD copy does a good job preventing this.

Hazezon can handily win without FotD, it just needs enough time and space that FotD easily provides. Even if they remove it, it might be too late.

But if Strip Mine was a more prevalent problem, I'd consider Life from the Loam, I'd trade Flashback for Regrowth, and I'd add the new Petrified Hamlet to my land-tutoring toolbox. Other options: Sevinne's Reclamation, Undergrowth Recon, Bala Ged Recovery, Eternal Witness, Crucible of Worlds, Conduit of Worlds etc

But ultimately, and why there's something of a disarmament agreement in my meta, is that if my opponents used Strip Mine against me a ton... I'd add and use Strip Mine against them. And with all my land-tutoring I think they'd regret it.

^ Yavi is one of my favs. In addition to what others have said I'd also rec Thawing Glaciers which is probably my fav land of all time if I had to pick one. It's especially nice if you run Rings of Brighthearth for copying fetches and/or with any land untappers. Blossoming Tortoise and Shigeki, Jukai Visionary are solid options though more ramp than landfixing. Not a perm but Life from the Loam is great. I also like Realms Uncharted for finding tech lands, you can get any two lands along with Echoing Deeps and Petrified Field. Gl with your build!

Why are you running Reliquary Tower? Graveyard-based strategies don't want Reliquary Tower; if you have 8 or more cards, dumping a few of them in the graveyard is great.

Okay, that out of the way. Some suggestions for cards you could use:

Life from the Loam and cycling lands. This is a simple loop: Cast LFTL getting a cycling land out of your graveyard, cycle that land, dredge LFTL instead of drawing a card, repeat. Not infinite. (You still need a minimum of 3 mana each run through.) Speaking of dredge, you might want Golgari Grave-Troll.

Kami of Whispered Hopes A mana dork that also acts as a Hardened Scales. Nice.

Brawn, Wonder, and Genesis These you should know. They have abilities in the graveyard which may be useful to you.

Living Death Just...try it. That's all I can say.

Mulch Another one to fill your graveyard.

Build looks great! I always like to try to play as many lands as possible in my land builds, it can be trick though because they're soo expensive.

Couple cards I think you neeeeed are Urza's Cave and Life from the Loam very powerful tools in land decks.

I'm a guy but I get it, the description/list is still being updated. Lands usually are the last to be updated, even in a land deck.

Have you considered adding Berserk? Super powerful in your build, easy to cast and can even be used on opposing creatures for some surprise politics.

I like how u run both Cultivator collusus and sylvan library, nice synergy. Speaking of sylvan library synergy, Life from the Loam might be worth considering for both it's own value + it's synergy with library. More synergy with life from the loam includes Realms Uncharted, but that's if you dedicate a lot more non-basics. You do have a lot of cards to recur lands so its worth noting.

Lastly, (I understand ur still updating the list, its just worth noting that) you have 97 cards in your deck currently.

Sliverguy420 didn't mention any removal despite saying you needed some- I recommend you include Unholy Heat, or potentially something like Krosan Grip so that you can stop the chaining decks like Storm from piling over you. Things like Force of Vigor help you for casting-for-free, and helping prioritize other slots of the deck. I don't know what budget you have at your disposal, but in terms of reanimating, I recommend you use a Sultai () shell to get the most out of your reanimating potential. Reanimate,Entomb,Animate Dead,Victimize are all considerable options for the prospect of bringing stuff back from the grave.

Don't forget that Graveyards are super easy to target, and having slots for your sideboard to counteract Graveyard removal are super important. Endurance would be a perfect inclusion for that role. Other cards that may help are Feldon's Cane, and Gaea's Blessing.

Best of luck with your deckbuilding, and don't forget that Life from the Loam also exists to help you snatch lands for casting on curve, while also filling your graveyard in order to have more reanimation targets.
