Tamanoa

Whenever a noncreature source you control deals damage, you gain that much life.

I have just made some major changes to this deck; for the first time ever, I have changed the general of this deck, replacing Uril, the Miststalker with Marath, Will of the Wild, because, while Uril was certainly an excellent general, it did not match the theme of this deck, which contained a mere six auras, whereas Marath does, and, upon making that change, I have decided to further emphasize this deck's theme of +1/+1 counters, specifically, by replacing Armadillo Cloak, Bear Umbra, Runes of the Deus, Scourge of the Nobilis, Shield of the Oversoul, and Snake Umbra with All Will Be One, Cathars' Crusade, Warleader's Call, Fertilid, Kalonian Hydra, and Steelbane Hydra; I had contemplated putting Forgotten Ancient in this deck, but I was not able to find space for it, and I also wish to minimize overlap with or similarities between this deck and my Atraxa, Praetors' Voice EDH deck, and, while this deck does not have quite as great of an emphasis on generating creature tokens as does my Ghired, Conclave Exile EDH deck, I still believe that it has a sufficient focus to justify the inclusion of Warleader's Call, which also has great synergy with Tamanoa. I also replaced Titanic Ultimatum with Pathbreaker Ibex, because the creature can use its ability repeatedly. I had considered putting Cabaretti Ascendancy into this deck, but I feel that this deck does not contain quite a sufficient number of creature cards to justify the inclusion of that card.
Overall, these changes reduced the average converted mana cost of this deck from 40.6 to 4.05, which is only a minimal change, but doing so also reduced the number of colored mana symbols in this deck, which is also a very good thing.
What does everyone else say about this? Do you believe that I did well with overhauling this deck?

Averna, Turtle Rider
Legendary Creature - Elemental Shaman Turtle 1/3
Whenever one or more creatures with toughness greater then its power attacks, exile the top X cards of your library, where X is the total toughness of attacking creatures. You may cast a spell with converted mana cost X or less without paying its mana cost. Put the rest on the bottom in a random order.
At the beginning of your end step, look at the top X cards of your library, where X is how many cards you exiled from your library this turn. You may put a number of lands equal to Averna, Turtle Rider's toughness onto the battlefield tapped under your control. Put the rest on the bottom in a random order.
How many times can you cycle through your library in a game? Lets find out. I was playing EDH and realized Tamanoa feels like it should be legendary. For the next card, lets see how you would make Tamanoa into a legendary creature.

Sire of the Insatiable
Legendary Creature - Beast Avatar
Trample, Vigilance, Haste
~ costs less for each Beast Creature you control.
Whenever ~ enters the battlefield, sacrifice a number of other creatures with total power 16 or more. If you cannot, exile ~.
At the beginning of combat on your turn, create a red, green and white Beast token tapped and attacking a random opponent.

Some of my favorite creatures are ones that ought to be legendary, but aren't. Such as the Nephilim, and Tamanoa. Choose one to make a new rendition of!

Actually you outrace everyone at the table for lifegain because of the Tamanoa . Combined with 1 or 2 activations of Pyrohemia at a casual table with a bunch of creatures in play and you gain stupid amounts of life. Its a little slower for the lifegain than it used to be. Before this incarnation I had a non-infinite version that also ran Manabarbs . You can see it here: Tammy Go!. Manabarbs + Tamanoa produces a lot of lifegain if it drops early enough before someone kills the cards.
I am not sure those cards you mentioned have a place in this version of the deck. It's built to go infinite with the combo and It would complicate plays with those added. I think Stuffy Doll and the reckoner would have a place in a different deck. The Tamanoa only gains life from non-creature damage sources. The doll and reckoner are both creatures so their damage is sourced from a creature.

For White: Preacher. My all time favorite white creature. This guy has gotten more popular over the years but I never saw it in anyone else's deck until commander got popular. The fact you make them choose just sweetens how messed up this card is.
For Blue: Horseshoe Crab. People don't throw removal at it, until they've seen what I do with it.
For Red: Spikeshot Goblin: It is so easy to make this guy oppressive and it's activation is 1 mana. Combined with Grafted Wargear this goblin is better than Lightning Bolt.
For Black: Festering Goblin. It can 2 for 1 early game and sometimes screws combat math for surprise kills of creatures.
For Green:Fertilid has become less unmeta but great card. I even have combo decks built around abusing this guy.
For Multicolor: Swarm Guildmage. No one remembers or hears when you say +1/+0 and menace.
For Multicolor: Tamanoa. This card screams at you to abuse it. I have half a dozen decks abusing this card. Outside of my immediate playgroup

Tamanoa I also have 0 problems with and I'm sure there's other non-legendary creatures I wouldn't care about either.
