Risen Reef

Creature — Elemental

Whenever Risen Reef or another Elemental enters the battlefield under your control, look at the top card of your library. If it's a land card, you may put it onto the battlefield tapped. If you don't put the card onto the battlefield, put it into your hand.

I've been playtesting a very similar deck and have found that 3 Collected Company can be very helpful to not only stabilize your board state but also fill your hand off of Risen Reef triggers.

This looks cool. My main comment would be to add some etb land ramp. Like Gus, I think Wood Elves / Farhaven Elf (depending on your mana base) and Springbloom Druid both totally deserve a spot here. Risen Reef also seems really good here. Yarok is an elemental.

I don't love: Duplicant since I think there are better etb options in your colors. Sultai Banner is terrible, especially compared to the ramp I commented above. You really shouldn't need to trade in your mana for cards. I haven't loved Casualties of War in my own decks.

Honestly if you're fairly new to mtg and mostly just play casually see if in your playgroup if they will allow a few proxies in your decks so you can play the cards before deciding if $15 a card now is really what you want to buy right now (especially when omnath is 15 right now only because of standard and this time next year it is very likely going to be much cheaper). Going 3 colors alone is probably quite the strain on your budget and Risen Reef is kind of not the aggressive strategy you're wanting, it's value.

This list of cheap elementals can help give you ideas, many of the cards in there you could probably buy full playsets for about a buck.

Hi, i'm pretty new in the game, and I would like, if it's possible, to get some advice about this deck:

Creatures: Chandra's Embercat x4, Thunderkin Awakener x4, Creeping Trailblazer x4, Risen Reef x4, Scorch Spitter x4, Overgrowth Elemental x4, Scampening Scorcher x3, Chandra's Spitfire x4,

Instants: Shock x4

Planeswalkers: Chandra, Novice Pyromancer x2, Chandra, Acolyte of Flame x2

And then complete with lands.

I would like to add Omnath, Locus of the Roil , but right know it's "over the budget" for me, so instead i'm using Overgrowth Elemental .

What do you think? What would you change?

Thank you very much for the advice!

I see your Risen Reef , but where's Zendikar's Roil ? Those two go together like peas and carrots! Dryad Arbor is amazing in just about any Yarok deck, yet I never see her used. With Deadeye Navigator and Lotus Cobra , you'll have yourself infinite landfall triggers (and infinite creature ETBs) -- that one card will add about 10 more win cons to your deck! Assuming you have Yarok out, that is...

Those are just my thoughts! Hope it helps!

You definitely need 4x Risen Reef . It's really the main reason to do what you're trying to do. I like the Devastating Summons idea as a finisher, pretty fun! Works great with Risen Reef .

WUBRG87 thanks for those, I didnt even think about Diabolic Servitude and how it would work with Yarok. Thats awesome! Farhaven Elf is definitely going in. As far as Risen Reef and Zendikar's Roil , I am having a hard time figuring out what to pull to replace them with, what do you think?

Also, Risen Reef can go deep with Zendikar's Roil . Its a decent combo. Especially with Yarok out.
