Boseiju Strikes! —Jan. 28, 2022
Kamigawa: Neon Dynasty has provided an unexpected new territory in the form of Boseiju, Who Endures:
Instant speed interaction for (essentially) , that doesn’t take a land drop for turn – and if used as a land doesn’t come into play tapped. Simply incredible, and is an auto-include for any deck that runs Forests. Taking an opponent’s best Artifact, Enchantment, or Gaea's Cradle and trading it for a Dual land, Triome, or Cabal Coffers is very much worth the price. This is an absolutely stellar card, and a day 1 must have acquisition for me. What do you all think about this incredible beast of a land? Let me know in the comments.

I replaced Temple Altisaur & That's for the 2 creatures previously mentioned.
As for Sword/Equip, I used Sword of the Animalist instewd of offense. The land ramp is extremely helpful for this deck's needsm.

Hey KevinLandonChanning, again I appreciate the words of praise! I'm grateful that you designed and built your own deck - taking inspiration from my own, that's awesome. Terror of the Peaks is a cool Dragon, and aesthetically I see what you mean but unfortunately due to it lacking the Dinosaur creature sub-type means that it won't have much synergy overall in the deck and will only be of any real relevance when Polyraptor hits the field. I'd prefer the inclusion of cards that can manage to both play into common strategies as well as stand out on their own within the deck.
Never considered Dryad of the Ilysian Grove , as it does suffer from being super easy to remove. I think i'll stick with my mana rocks to try and fix my mana pool. Honestly, i'm just hoping for Wizards to print more Dinosaurs - specifically dinos that are low CMC (1 or 2) that can also function as mana dorks in some unique fashion that incorporates a cool Enrage trigger that nets mana. For now I haven't seen anything printed to give me pause, but i'm always paying attention to spoilers. Sword of the Animist is pretty interesting. Never considered it before, but i'll give it some thought. Thanks again for posting, I wish you all the success and luck with your Zacama deck!

Hey, just letting you know I ran a variant of your built at my (non-US) LGS this week. Both games it was superbly tuned and powerful. I had subbed out some pure power dinos (Ghalta for example) and put in Terror of the Peaks and the Dryad from Theros. Terror of the peaks can still be on theme (looks like a flying dino), and it's creature power etb damage trigger is huge. I used it with Polyrapotor trick to win the game and highly recommend you to incorporate this dragon dino.
Dryad is amazing for the color fixing, but I understand if you don't want non-theme cards.
