copied from here, but went more all-in on Eldrazi smashing.

Tweaked the mana base some

Added Ramunap Ruins: works well in RDW, and is an effective dual land for this deckAdded Ruins of Oran-Rief: been using this in my Pia's Revolution Deck. Buffing a Reality Smasher to 6/6 and beyond with this land is mighty appealing!

Tweaked Mana Base — July 30, 2017

Edit

Went 2-2 this time around. I've had too many mulligans with this deck.

There was TOO MUCH colorless this time around. Generating colored mana was either painful, or I lost 1 CMC by filtering through Crypt of the Eternals. Aside from the life gain, WoTC decided to make this land an uncommon, and Unknown Shores is a common...and better filter. Really wizards...you couldn't have re-printed Crumbling Necropolis, instead of this garbage?

Also cut Forerunner of Slaughter. Metallic Mimic did A LOT more work. This opened up 2 slots for 25 lands (since my top-end curve is pretty heavy). May go back to 24 if I flood too much.

R1: 2-0 against a GB midrange brew. Didn't need to SB.

R2: 0-2 against monument. Even though the deck gave it plenty of fight, the mana base killed it. I was also convinced to tweak the SB to add Dispossess and Lost Legacy for anti-enchantment

R3: 2-1 against RB vehicles. Very interesting deck.

R4: 0-2 against UW flash spirits/control/Approach of the Second Sun. The last game, mulliganed to 4, and 1 land seen ALL game. Hence the mana base changes. Evolving Wilds for fixing, basically.
