Karn Liberated and More Color-Producing Lands —March 28, 2018

In:

  • Forbidden Orchardfoil - I felt like the color fixing was worth more than the land destruction on strip mine, as I have many other ways to remove problematic lands
  • Karn Liberatedfoil - I mean, he’s just value, and he answers PW emblems; also, most people will just scoop to his ultimate
  • Tarnished Citadelfoil - I needed more color fixing Out:
    • Strip Minefoil - not worth the colorless land slot, rarely find myself using it
    • Crypt Ghastfoil - honestly, it's only function is as a combo piece, playing it puts a target on your head, and isn't ultimately that useful.
    • Maze of Ith - I have, quite literally, never used this card since I put it in the deck

@SynergyBuild:

Imperial Seal may eventually come in. I find myself happy with my tutor package right now and my wallet is also happy Im not trying to buy one.

Bazaar just does nothing for me. I have absolutely no need to be discarding that many cards period, and Putrid Imp does just fine for me when I do need to discard. The only deck I actually see this card being viable in is Gitrog Monster. Also, the price tag on Bazaar is ungodly.

Thanks for the suggestions!

Elvish Mystic, Fyndhorn Elves, Llanowar Elves, Chrome Mox, Mox Diamond, Mana Vault, Mana Crypt are some of the fast ramp, and

Llanowar Mentor... is jank af

@SynergyBuild: I cut the mana dorks that dont color fix because they arent as useful. Fast mana rocks/aggressive ramping isnt really my goal. The list isnt supposed to be super competitive because I gave up on cEDH a few months back. Also, Fyndhorn Elves in foil is hideous (to me).

Llanowar Mentor seems really cool, but better in an elf tribal or really ramp-heavy strategy.

Thanks for the additional suggestions!
