Omnath, Locus of Rage

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.

It’s all the rage this season.

[vbananas]

I want to make an spore/agar.io -like game called Omnath.io. You start as a little green omnath and move around the game arena to eat up bits of mana. Each bit of mana makes you a bit bigger, but getting a certain amount of a given color grants a color pip. Color pips give abilities! Rinse and repeat until you have 5 pips of mana and one hungry hungry omnath eats everything.

No idea what the abilities would be. I’m feeling blue would be movement speed, green would be additional size increase, black could let you slow down a nearby blob(s) that you’re moving towards.

Thoughts on abilities or if this is a garbage idea?

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.

I knew Ommath would get black mana...just...I'd hope it wouldn't have been like this...my boy

Also who the hell let Heliod out of gay baby jail!?

And Omnath has his last color! Granted it’s diseased and covered in oil, but it still counts.

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

[stupidstupidratcreatures]

that post would have hit way more in like 2017 but like you know its still funny

[magicjudge]

Is Bound//Determined a valid reveal for Omnath: Locus of all, since it has three or more coloured mana symbols between the mana costs of its two halves?

A split card has the combined characteristics of both of its halves in all zones other than on the stack. This means that when you look at Bound//Determined with Omnath's trigger, it counts as a BGU card and can be revealed.

Disclaimer: This answer is correct under the rules at time of posting, but concerns a card from an upcoming set. The rules may change when that set releases and invalidate this answer.

You're pretty great, you know that?

Thanks! You know what else is great? They finally finished the Omnath cycle! First it was mono-green:

Then they added red:

Then blue:

Then this one had to get banned from standard:

And now finally...

The black Omnath, Henrika dOmnathi!
