Nothing really popped out at me except Terror of the Peaks. A slightly cheaper Warstorm Surge on a body that requires a tad more to remove if targeted individually.

Otherwise, getting a foil EA Azusa will be pretty sweet.

ThermalMeerkat, its the Promo, I got it from an LGS just for a neat upgrade for my favorite EDH deck.

IMHO birds is a wasted card in this deck, if it's not in your opening hand it basically does nothing.
This deck looks very competitive so I might be out of place (I'm a super casual player), but have you considered Tempt with Vengeance? I have destroyed the board with that card and a good sac outlet.
Also, no Boundless Realms? any card that can net me 7+ landfall triggers seems like a must.
I recently added Multani, Yavimaya's Avatar to my deck, great way to get lands back to your hand and is a huge beater late game. Really like your build though, +1 from me.

passascats thanks for the +1, and yes I have put a lot of work into making this pretty strong.

Yes BOP is pretty useless unless it’s my turn 1-2 play but that is justified, cause that leads into explosive starts. If I get it later in a game, it’s good discard fodder for Chandra or Greater Good. Or it can be a chump flier blocker lol.

I don’t like Realms for this deck because I ramp so hard I generally get most of my basics out that Realms wouldn’t net me that much.

I haven’t tested Multani in this list mainly because she doesn’t stand out that much to me but I’ll look into it.

As for the Tempt, I like it and I like your reasoning for it but generally I maintain the board pretty well with my wipes and removal but I’ll look into that suggestion too.

Thanks for the input!

Hey idk if you know this and are playing her anyway just cuz she’s kind of a bomb card, but Chandra, Flamecaller ’s elementals don’t die. They’re exiled on the end step.

I am aware, normally I just use the 0 and "ult" abilities as they are more impactful. The + is good for pressuring a planeswalker or for more fodder towards Ashnod's Altar or Phyrexian Altar .

Very nice, have you seen Perilous Forays though? If you combine it with your commander and Amulet of Vigor or Lotus Cobra it lets you get all your basic lands onto the field, with each one giving you 3 burn damage. This combo has allowed me to eliminate 2 players on turn 5, but my deck also has a lot more basic lands than yours due to budget restraints. Still, combining it with Parallel Lives or Warstorm Surge are just two examples of how insane this combo can be if you get the right pieces. Just a suggestion in case you haven’t seen it, love your deck though!

BeefSupreem12, I have seen those, and I know those enchantments are immensely popular with angry Om decks for good reasons as it is powerful to get the pseudo-combo going. But personally I dislike running those bulkier (5CMC or greater) enchantments as I have found them difficult to play alongside Om, and not be losing, in my area's meta. But I do keep going back and forth on Perilous Forays, Parallel Lives and Warstorm Surge so maybe someday if the competitiveness of my LGS's EDH scene goes down they will be included again lol.

Ah, yeah my meta is probably a bit on the slow side so it works great for me, but yeah it’s a bit much for faster/more competitive metas. One other card that I’m only mentioning because I literally just discovered it and immediately love is Defense of the Heart. If any of your opponents are playing a creature deck it’s basically a 4 cmc entwined Tooth and Nail. Although it is delayed since it activates during upkeep /:

Defense of the Heart is definitely an interesting option to put it, I will actually have to consider it.
