This isn't an energy deck, so Wrath of the Skies is here just to destroy everything with mana value less than whatever you pay for X. The idea is that it can preserve Oloro, who has a fairly high mana value, while taking out token swarms and the like. I'll have to see if that's really better than Nevinyrral's Disk; the disk is supposed to scare off opponents as much as it's a board wipe--i.e., don't attack me and I won't use it--but tends to eat removal either way and not serve either purpose. The Wrath can be deployed as a surprise, so maybe that's better, but time will tell.
The rest are basically just lands with some extra utility. Nesting Grounds is here entirely as a means to move age counters off Glacial Chasm, which is a pretty niche interaction but is fun to do. I think it's fine since it taps for mana anyway, though maybe I should be careful about too many strictly colorless sources in a three-color deck.
