Work in progress. Minimalistic Najeela synergies/combos in a 5c cEDH shell

Najeela has many one card combos. However, while all utilise Najeela's abilities from different angles, for any of them to have an optimal deck built around them, one must make decisions that make the others suboptimal.

Example: Nature's will (and Sword of Feast and Famine) rewards playing lands, while Druid's repository (and Cryptolith Rites) rewards playing creatures. When making choices on one's ramp slots, the choice can fall on either 1. rituals, 2. mana dorks, 3. mana rocks, 4. land ramp, or a combination thereof.

The deck building paradigm imposed by playing Ad Nauseam attracts low cmc mana positive cards, and indeed fast mana rocks, spirit guides, good rituals seem the natural fit. Ad Nauseam's dictation on much of the fast mana base leaves only few slots for the synergistic ramp of choice, highlighting the anti-synergisticness of playing many types of Najeela 1 card combos. Forcing all forms of ramp into an already tight shell results in a hand full of gas and no action.

Notes to self (OUTDATED AND FACTUALLY PROBABLY WRONG): Kindred Discovery is our very own assemblable Ad Nauseam Goblin Bombardment for some extra reach

Najeela can make win bigly with several cards in the deck, with each card having their own restrictions:

Wins with prismatic creatures by dealing combat damage through combat steps Bloom tender + ((any prismatic or off-color mana dork) or (non-green-red permanent)) x 3

Wins with prismatic lands by dealing combat damage through combat steps Nature's Will / Sword of Feast and Famine / Life / Rude Awakening / Natural Affinity

Wins with prismatic lands in one combat step with outlet Life / Rude Awakening / Natural Affinity

Wins with creatures by dealing combat damage through combat steps Phyrexian Altar Druids' Repository Derevi, Empyrial Tactician

Wins with 5+ creatures in one combat step with outlet Song of Freyalise

Wins in one combat step with outlet Cryptolith Rite
