Omnath, Locus of Rage

some new elemental tokens for the booth. Pretty fond of the Omnath one.

Multiple Elements Character Tournament - Round 3 2/12

Cure Miracle/Mirai Asahina - Light, Fire, and Water

Omnath - White Mana, Red Mana, Blue Mana, and Green Mana

Propaganda under the cut

Omnath: The walking elemental heart of Zendikar, a plane that shifts and twists with rich sources of mana. It's usually a disaster when Omnath wakes, but the last time he did the plane was being invaded by horrible eldritch monstrosities and it helped fight them off. Literally composed of mana, so is probably pretty good at using it.

My omnath locus of rage deck was the first one I built way back, and now it feels like my clunkiest deck, do you have any recomendations for it. It's landfall with a bit of typal synergies

Clunky, uh? Landfall decks are usually fairly straightforward, since they can go really hard with land ramp and use it to enable everything else, which is hard to interact with. But Omnath IS seven mana.

It's hard to do recommendation on how to unclunkify it without more context. Was it updated since it was first built? Did the decks around it change and it can no longer keep up? Did your taste change? Feel free to leave that in a reblog, either a decklist or just what doesn't feel right.

In the meantime, the recommendations will be pretty generic...

Usually I like to stay budget with these suggestions, but I'd be remiss not to mention a new Elemental that's great at getting a bunch of lands entering at once! Aftermath Analyst is cheaper, both monetarily and manaterily, but not an elemental itself. Generally speaking, WotC has been exploring that space of reanimating a bunch of lands at once more lately, and it can be very powerful to ramp ahead a ton and get a lot of landfall triggers all at once. Of note, it's even better if your deck has lands that put themselves in the graveyard, typically fetchlands and such, so if you include these, might want to look at your manabase. Even budget fetchlands work with those though, terramorphic expanses and such, even if the "real" fetches will be a bit better. Though New Capenna fetchlands will be as good as "real" ones here, since they ignore the whole "tapped" bit anyway. These are all good to have in a landfall deck anyway because they can double trigger landfall, so wouldn't be surprised if you already had a bunch.

I tend to like these kinda creatures that can get you lands every turn by attacking. They all have their quirks, and they can be a bit more fragile and slower than the traditional ramp spells, but they're a presence on board and they can snowball much more... If your playgroup isn't too heavy on board wipes.

Spelunking is a recent addition to lands decks that does a LOT of heavy lifting (ignore the Cave text). It replaces itself, can ramp too, and turns all your ramping and fetching for the rest of the game into untapped ramping and fetching, which is pretty huge, essentially discounting all those spells or generating extra mana. It rarely feels like something your opponents need to remove, but it'll quietly generate a lot of advantage.

Finally, we got a bunch of tools to trigger Landfall a fair bit with single cards recently, so might as well include them.

Sorry for nothing more custom than that, but Landfall is pretty generic and I'm not sure exactly your issue.

Omnath, Locus of All (Buy a Box Ver) by Helge C. Balzer

Omnath, Locus of Rage. landfall =)

First, to avoid repeating myself too much, I'll point you to the last time I did recommendations for an Omnath, Locus of Rage Landfall deck.

Secondly, I will warn that the recommendations here won't be the most original, since landfall tends to be pretty focused on getting lands and being rewarded for it. But let's see what we can find!

Not too original since Landfall is literally written on the card, Mossborn Hydra is an extra copy of Scute Swarm, except it dies to a single removal spell and can kill opponents only one at a time. With that said, I know plenty of landfall decks that'll be happy to take it still, and it has the slight upside of being an Elemental to work with Omnath.

Sowing Mycospawn will fetch any land untapped. Already pretty big for this option of rampy creature. The floor, in a landfall deck, is to grab some kind of fetchland, even an evolving wilds will do, and getting two landfall triggers and a 3/3 body while ramping for 4 mana. That's already pretty decent, but landfall decks also tend to have quite a decent selection of lands to pick from, too, and I'm sure you'll find other uses for this one. A 3/3 and a field of the dead or valakut can shift things pretty quick.

Clifftop Lookout won't have those upsides, but if you want more rampy etb creatures or to replace a Farhaven Elf, it still will randomly grab nonbasics. And the extra point of toughness and sneaky reach are surprisingly effective at keeping you alive a smidge longer.

Sutina is in that category of Farhaven Elf, but unlike most of those she's a 2/2. The land bouncing will scarcely matter, but it's nice in that kind of deck to squeeze out an extra landfall trigger out of a hand out of gas.

Ojer Kaslem is slow, needing you to untap with her and then swing before getting any value, which isn't the best in an archetype with as many powerful options as Landfall. However, getting a free land and a free creature if you get there is quite powerful, and if she were to die to non-exile removal? Well, you get a landfall trigger and she'll pretty easily flip back in a landfall deck anyway.

Counterpoint:

reading the story explains the story

[markrosewater]

“If/when: cards that care about number of pips i.e. ‘target card with 2 colored mana pips’

If.”

FYI, Omnath, Locus of all pretty much does this. It cares about cards that have three or more colored mana symbols.

A fine point.

[pikagatogirltits]

Have I ever actually mentioned how addicted I am to brewing Magic decks? I currently have 37 Commander decks... that is to say the decks I currently have physically built for playing with. I just thought it might be fun to share a list of them, complete with Moxfield links. I even sorted them into a few different categories for better organization.

Trans Women of Magic (pet project to build a deck around every canon trans woman on a Magic card)

Alesha Says Trans Rights - Alesha, Who Smiles at Death. RWB power 2 or less recursion shenanigans. My personal favorite deck.

Ballroom Blitz - Xantcha, Sleeper Agent. BR goad and group "hug."

Hit and Run Time - Arcee, Sharpshooter. RW +1/+1 counters and combat tricks.

Legends Never Die - Alesha, Who Laughs at Fate. RB reanimator and +1/+1 counters. (Characters who get multiple cards I'm probably only going to hold myself to building one deck per character, but I like how Granny Alesha plays well enough to build her anyways.)

The Doctors Are In - Rose Noble and The Fourteenth Doctor. WURG Doctor Who themed deck, mainly wins via Gallifrey Stands.

When Fluffy Bunnies Attack - Cadira, Caller of the Small. GW tokens.

Other Favorite Decks

Gatewatch Assemble! - Jared Carthalion. 5 color Superfriends.

Let's Go Lesbians! - Halana and Alena, Partners. RG +1/+1 counters.

Squirrels Squirrels Squirrels! - Chatterfang Squirrel General. BG tokens aristocrats.

Ziatora the Burninator - Ziatora the Incinerator. BRG sacrifice with a strong focus on self reanimating creatures.

Artisan Commander (commons and uncommons only)

A Wizard Did It - Balmor, Battlemage Captain. UR wizard typal and spell slinger.

Iron Gut Rampage - Gut, True Soul Zealot + Agent of the Iron Throne. BR tokens aristocrats.

Rograkh and His Puppy - Rograkh, Son of Rohgahh + Anara, Wolvid Familiar. GR Voltron.

That's a Lot of Elves! - Miara, Thorn of the Glade + Numa, Joraga Chieftain. BG elf typal.

The Ups and Downs of Life - Dina, Soul Steeper. BG lifegain.

To Arms! - Akiri, Fearless Voyager. RW equipment.

Typal Decks

Changeling - Morophon, the Boundless. 5 color changeling "typal" aka a bunch of different typal lords combined with changeling cards.

Cleric - Orah, Skyclave Hierophant. WB cleric typal/graveyard shenanigans with a lifegain subtheme.

Dinosaur - Pantlaza, Sun-Favored. RGW dinosaur typal.

Dragon - Miirym, Sentinel Wyrm. GUR dragon typal that makes lots of token copies.

Dwarf - Depala, Pilot Exemplar. RW dwarf typal with an artifact subtheme (with an emphasis on equipment and vehicles.)

Elemental - Omnath, Locus of the Roil. GUR elemental typal with a land subtheme.

Elf - Marwyn, the Nurturer. G elf typal.

Goblin - General Kreat, the Boltbringer. R goblin typal. (General Kreat is the third commander for this deck after Krenko, Mob Boss and Pashalik Mons as I try to hit the sweet spot of "strong but not too strong for my very casual playgroup.)

Pirate - Admiral Beckett Brass. UBR pirate typal with a treasure subtheme.

Rogue - Anowon, the Ruin Thief. UB rogue typal with mill and theft subthemes. (The mill is mostly there to enable stealing from your graveyard.)

Soldier - Darien, King of Kjeldor. W soldier typal. (Currently considering taking this apart and turning it into RW soldier typal with Commander Mustard at the helm.)

Vampire - Anje, Maid of Dishonor. BR vampire typal with a blood subtheme. (Second iteration of the deck, original one was heavily water damaged by a cat dumping it into the dog's water dish right after I had sleeved it...which managed to save some cards at least.)

Warrior - Tazri, Beacon of Unity. 5 color warrior typal with token subtheme. (Originally a Najeela, the Blade-Blossom deck but not one of those Najeela decks so I changed the commander so I wouldn't get auto targeted for running a powerful commander.)

Werewolf - Tovolar, Dire Overlord. RG werewolf and wolf typal.

Wizard - Naban, Dean of Iteration. U wizard typal ETB shenanigans.

Zombie - Wilhelt, the Rotcleaver. UB zombie typal. (My first ever EDH deck, it used to be helmed by Grimgrin, Corpse-Born.)

Other Decks

Daretti's Scrap Shop - Daretti, Scrap Savant. R artifact aristocrats/recursion.

Double-ment Gum - Yenna, Redtooth Regent. GW enchantments.

Oops! All Creatures! - Nikya of the Old Ways. RG all creatures gimmick deck. (Nikya's "you can't cast noncreature spells" isn't a restriction if I'm not running noncreature spells.)

Slimefoot and Friends - Slimefoot, the Stowaway. BG saproling aristocrats.

Ultimate Showdown - Buttercup, Provincial Princess (Sisay, Weatherlight Captain.) 5-color historic/legends matter with a token subtheme. All Universes Beyond deck, and all creature cards are legendary.
