I really really liked Omnath, Locus of Rage. But I also thought that I was missing a color for the R/G landfall deck, and I searched for a commander that fit the strategy I was looking for with an additional color. Of course, there wasn't one. So I started taking a look at your deck, and I really love how it works (love at first sight with this deck). I also have some questions for you: How do you feel about Vorinclex, Voice of Hunger - it adds to a more control-based feeling and really makes your opponent think about whether or not their next spell is worth playing. Primeval Titan - landfall triggers much? Atarka's Command - 3 damage, land play, and other stuff. Sylvan Advocate - for a more land-creature based system... but that's a whole other deck (which is where i'm leaning towards, suggestions?) and Genesis Wave - it will play most of anything left in your deck and will trigger the landfall abilities like mad. I'm actually surprised to not have seen this in your deck. Anyways, do you mind if I use some of your ideas? Like Chandra, Flamecaller + Omnath, Locus of Rage :D???

By all means, go right ahead. I couldn't care less. Always glad to give out decklists that I put together.

In regards to your suggestions:

Vorinclex, Voice of Hunger - My playgroup is pretty well balanced out, in that we don't really bother with Vorinclex or Jin-Gitaxias. If I was planning on playing the most competitive list I could, I'd certainly include him. But that's just my local meta.

Primeval Titan - As much as I'd love to play good ol Prime Time, he's unfortunately (yet correctly) banned in commander. I know that the banlist is just a guideline, and not a steadfast rule. But, once again, my group plays according to the banlist. If it's on there, it's not legal. I'd kill to be able to play Primeval Titan again.

Atarka's Command - Being able to pump my army of tokens would be awesome, but I don't know if it's really what I need to be doing. I play Atarka Red in Standard, so I understand the power of the card, and being able to make an extra land drop would be great as well.

Sylvan Advocate - I know there's a Raging Ravine in the deck, but to tell you the truth I don't even really activate it much. I'm surprised it's still in the deck. That's about the only defense I have for that one.

Genesis Wave - Don't know why it isn't in the deck to tell you the truth. I guess I didn't include it in the original draft, and it just never found a slot. It'd be amazing in this deck, just haven't ever felt the need for it.

So how has this deck been running for you so far? At least for me I have become the force to be record with in my meta, lol

I either die hard in the early game, or the late game sees me make 6 or 7 elementals in a turn that allows me to swing for massive amounts of damage. I love playing the deck so much, but I haven't gotten to play it since oath dropped.
