Small M20 & ELD tweaks + primer section —July 27, 2019
- Replacing Phyrexian Altar with Earthcraft. It basically does a better job of reducing the cost of whitemane lion at less mana and without sacrificing the tokens.
- Taking out Birthing Pod and adding Shared Summons. This is basically a second Uncage the Menagerie at instant speed, with added versatility.
- Added Genesis Chamber in place of Luminarch Ascension.
- Included Deafening Silence as a cheap interaction piece that does not influence our game plan too much. Song of the Dryads makes room.
Also working on a primer section to complement the description. Feel free to give me some feedback on it!
Hey Goretast! I like it, but it is a recent addition, so I haven't had much opportunity yet to see it in action. I had it out in a game only once, but in that game it did a lot of work. I was able to combine it with karametra, Lotus Cobra , a token maker, and Whitemane Lion . What was nice in that scenario was the tricks you can pull off. I was fully tapped out with lotus cobra and altar in play. This baited out a removal spell for cobra during an opponent's turn. Because of altar I was able to sac 2 other creatures and go infinite whitemane lions in response to get all forests and plains. Shortly after, altar was part of a build-your-own-aluren (altar + cost reducer + token on cast trigger) which won me the game. So, positive experiences so far :).
It would make sense to also add Genesis Chamber . I've had it on my radar for quite a while as well. I will also consider that include again.

Really interesting build. Have you every thought to include Fleetfoot Panther ? It essentially works as a second copy of Whitemane Lion , except it also requires a green mana. It would combo off with Alluren.
I would like to second Genesis Chamber as it would just give you another win-con to combo out with.

Thanks Lhurgyof!
I did consider Fleetfoot Panther but I decided not to include it. With Kor Skyfisher and Stonecloaker I am already running 3 whitemane lion type creatures. Fleetfoot panther surely is the worst one of the bunch. I opted for additional creature tutors instead.
I agree that Genesis Chamber should find its place in this list (in fact I already ordered one ;)). I’m considering cutting Luminarch Ascension to make room for it. Will make the decision soon. Let me know if you see other contenders to cut!

Hey Beebles, how has Phyrexian Altar been treating you? I've been thinking about adding it and maybe doubling down with Genesis Chamber .
