Creature — Snake Druid

: Add .

As long as this is modified, this has ": Add ." (A creature is modified if it has equipment or aura attached to it, or has counters on it.)

Nice deck, I've been messing around with a couple GW versions of this concept, one more aggro and one that's more ramp-focused with more top-end threats.

I also considered building in some landfall to synergize with Kodama, but ultimately decided against it because the landfall pieces were a little too reliant on that one card to be effective. I feel like you might have the same problem here, with Emergent Sequence and Environmental Sciences being your only other mini-enablers to get one land apiece. With only a handful of cards to fetch lands and only 22 lands, there could be a good chunk of games where the landfall cards don't do much.

Therefore I might recommend moving away from the landfall strategy and using those slots for more ramp and/or big threats that synergize well with counters. Some ideas:

A couple other cheap cards that you might consider are Ollenbock Escort to protect creatures you've invested a lot of counters into and enable you to attack aggressively, and Ranger Class which is obviously just a good card that fits your strat and gives you some extra gas if they game goes too long. Orochi Merge-Keeper is another interesting one but for 3 colors I like Emergent Sequence and Gala Greeters better.

For example, the site text for Llanowar Elves and Birds of Paradise have been changed to "{T}: Gain..." However, not all cards are changed. Orochi Merge-Keeper and Boreal Druid still say "Add". Was there an Oracle change I'm not aware of? This is also on some lands, like Access Tunnel.
