Interesting list. I'm a huge fan of land strategies in EDH. I typically build around the legacy 43 Lands.dec shell.

Dust Bowl is crucial late game alongside a lot of basic lands.

Elvish Reclaimer you have some stuff to tutor for.

Eternal Witness, Holistic Wisdom and/or Turntimber Sower solid recursion.

Creeping Renaissance, Storm the Festival, Moment's Peace and Soul of New Phyrexia are neat discard fodder.

Your maybeboard is full of power. I'd cut like 10 forests to add the good stuff like Constant Mists, Crucible of Worlds and Timber Protector

Timeless Lotus version, there's actually quite a few directions the deck could go, thanks to Storm the Festival.

Crow-Umbra funny you should mention Sterling Grove as an example of what type of tutor I keep around, because that was one of the other ones I left in that same deck for that exact reason :) . I rarely pop it for its' tutor ability.

Hard to say card draw compensation occurs hard (maybe a little), hard card draw is one thing I see popping up in our low-tutor total meta, but we actually usually see more: "to the battlefield" bombs to make up for suboptimal setup-fixing at times.

Last outing, I won about 3 games of 6 with suboptimal min-tutor decks & they were mostly back-&-forth affairs which could have gone either way (the best environment for little incremental damage pieces). One game I won after an Obliterate by the skin of my teeth by opting to pull Kroxa, Titan of Death's Hunger instead of another land & then gambling that my opponent would discard his last 3 life :) . The other game I caught up in a big way with flashback on Storm the Festival & that put me over-the-top to overcome early game enchantress removal. Lastly, my Breena deck somehow ran roughshod over everyone with Heliod vigilance-ing all my white weenies. So a lot of aggro & midgame fun in that playgroup with a smattering of catchup spells instead of tutors.

It has been kindof nice for my usual meta that about 1/2 of our decks have converted over to a groupslug or goad element. Those inherently allow for more midgame combat & chip dmg with a "we can deal with it later" attitude instead of the amped up "every player needs to be stopped" games. We play some of those too, but it is nice to have a couple of lower synergy disruption decks that sneak a backdoor win here & there just off playing more mid-tier threats or sudden Timmystuff plays that have a high impact but also aren't must play scenarios. Removing some must play/must tutor things has allowed me to play more undervalued bombs like Storm the Festival or Creative Technique... with massive impact + high variance

Oh you're good don't worry lol, I'm glad you like the list. I think splashing blue is gonna be a little too tight on the mana base since I'm already squeezing out a lot of my snow mana for utility.

Storm the Festival was in here before actually, I keep going back and forth on it because being able to coco for Obliterator and lands is pretty nice, but in the version I've been running in arena I find myself rarely able to use it when I need it the most (3 green symbols is Brutal in this list without Yavimaya) and most of the time I really don't since Obliterator, most of the time, operates more like a spell than a creature in this list. If there was a little more wiggle room I'd definitely put it in, and it's good enough that I'd be willing to throw it in the sideboard, but on the whole I think it's probably just not quite good enough to make the cut.

Yo just coming back in to also suggest Storm the Festival to potentially bring out two Obliterators with one card.

If you also want even more obliterators, splashing in blue with Croaking Counterpart would be pretty funny.

I realize deck space is already tight as it is, so take these suggestions with a grain of salt. I just like this deck a lot lmao.
