Idoneity on Tossing green out of the …

2 months ago

For the last few years, I have dove deeply into ramping via lands in commander. I still play an Arcane Signet or two for density's sake, but I've come to appreciate the corner-case complexity of land-ramping without cards designed to do so.

Green gets off easiest, getting a Rampant Growth every once and a while.

White has clearly risen to second best in this field with their Brought Backs and Claim Jumpers, each combining fruitfully with fetchlands and Lotus Field.

However, other colours need to outsource. I've seen discussion around Blue copying fetches with Virtue of Knowledge or simply casting Mitotic Manipulation. Black just got Dai Li Indoctrination. And Red just can't do much.

There's some universal ones: Mirran Safehouse, Surveyor's Scope, Dowsing Dagger  ^Flip, Wayfarer's Bauble, Myriad Landscape, etc....

But what others are out there? I know MTG-Goldfish inspired a lot of these, but it also encouraged me to get creative. So I'm curious what means other people have mustered!

SufferFromEDHD Very cool deck! +1

Lotus Field and Lotus Vale can keep you deficient in land while providing colored mana and allowing you to continue ramping. Additionally, Arid Archway and Guildless Commons are similar and are great card advantage. All of these also work quite well with Deserted Temple.

Have you had a chance to play with Endless Horizons? I am curious to hear your experience with the card.

Thanks for the suggestions SufferFromEDHD!

I'm mono red player at heart, though I played lots for deck variety over the years. Red Akroma is truly a bomb once she goes off. Now regarding with your suggestions:

GambleGC - I'm actually considering this, but I only have one copy and its on my Jund Coram Deck.

Lotus Field / Lotus Vale - yup seriously considering it as a replacement for Gilded Lotus.

Arena of Glory - I'll probably get this over Flamekin Village

Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx / Nyx Lotus - probably no since as you have said, I don't have many permanents with {R} in the deck.

I have been staring at this in my collection for years and have never thought of color shifted Akroma as the voltron bomb she rightfully is. This is A+ jank!

GambleGC always useful

Lotus Field/Lotus Vale "free" Gilded Lotus

Arena of Glory and/or Flamekin Village possibly maybe

Nyx Lotus and/or Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx I'm not sure you are running enough permanents but the fire breathing synergy seems too good to pass up

Great deck. Same additional options for your Hazezon deck:

• Rootborn Defenses protects your board and creates addition tokens.
• Mercadia's Downfall is an interesting option for red token decks and your opponents don't see it coming.
• Knight of New Alara. As the sand warriors a three colors he is nearly an auto include for Hazezon
• Lotus Field feeds desert to your graveyard and with extra landdrops its also efficient
• Nahiri's Lithoforming reads like it was designed for Hazezon.
• Crop Rotation last but not least. And matching to the flavor text it can search Lotus Field. That joke alone jusifies both cards ;-)

I don't know if you have any of these cards lying around but most a budget and shoud be easy to get.

Y'all know what I mean, and y'all know how it goes!!

Bouncelands (Karoo, Guildless Commons, Arid Archway) and Lotus lands (Lotus Vale, Lotus Field) keep your land count low so you can catch up!

Thanks, I am not a huge fan of Cultivator Colossus mainly because it needs lands in hand to be useful (often 3+ to be comparable to Titan), and it also doesn't win the game on the spot, at a higher CMC than Primeval Titan, which often will.

If I wanted to avoid surgical more than I already do (Dryad + Analyst can already win on their own), I would probably add Scapeshift or Lumra, Bellow of the Woods back in, but I don't want to add back the second Lotus Field which enables the Scapeshift lines, and with only 1 lotus, lumra is like a colossus basically, really reliant on some outside factors to be good.

Analyst is slightly better mostly because it does its job from the grave, and can be used as ramp early then won with later. I would only run 1 of the graveyard creatures, with my minimalist package right now, and analyst just lines up better into hate and removal.

My honest opinion is, forget about Deserted Temple... there is just no scenario where it can net you mana, as previously explained.

Its ability LOOKS like it only costs {1} mana, but effectively costs {2}, since it is a land itself and you need to tap it for its ability (when instead you could tap it for mana).

Its real use, imho, would be to untap a land to benefit from a non-mana ability or, it you have like a Lotus Field brew and untap a land that taps for 3 mana, which WOULD be a net positive regarding total mana.

Ok, this was my first impulse here. I will take yet a closer look and possibly comment again soon. But my stance on Temple will remain, the math just doesn't check out and that's an objective observation.
