Sakura-Tribe Elder is nice. Not only does it fetch two lands total with Karametra but it goes off with Emeria Shepherd.

Also, Rofellos, Llanowar Emissary is banned in commander.

@enpc thank you! I've replaced Rofellos, Llanowar Emissary with Sakura-Tribe Elder

Why not Grasslands as an extra on-colors fetchland?

@Ruinah it enters the battlefield tapped, so it does not combo with playing extra lands, nor playing two lands in a turn, so it is pretty much useless in the deck.

Beastmaster Ascension is great for most green decks.

Maybe Nylea, God of the Hunt as a trample-giver and mana sink?

Dungrove Elder could be good here. Also a Flagstones of Trokair is nice in case they're running Wildfire or the likes

Its advantageous to run lands like Temple Garden, Dryad Arbor, and Canopy Vista because you can get them with Karametra.

Thoughts on cards like New Frontiers, Boundless Realms, Animist's Awakening, and Collective Voyage?

Thank you for the feedback!

@Lanzo493: Beastmaster Ascension sounds good, but I never got it to work. I prefer anthems that give some sort of evasion.

@pieguy396: Good point on Nylea, God of the Hunt being a mana sink. Currently her slot is occupied by Akroma's Memorial, but she could potentially replace True Conviction, though I do love my double strike and life link.

@Jimmy_Chinchila I do like Flagstones of Trokair and I have enough Plains to add it. Thank you. If Dungrove Elder had trample, I'd consider it.

@Mandalorian: you are right. Don't know how I missed the good duals. I have added Temple Garden, Canopy Vista and Savannah. I'm not sure what Dryad Arbor would do for this deck - Am I missing something?

Cheers

Use Reclamation Sage instead of Acidic Slime. Getting those landfalls faster is great.

Cultivate or Kodama's Reach is probably better than Far Wanderings. You only really need it in the early game, and your deck doesn't have threshold frequently.

Also I would cut the Flagstones of Trokair for a Plains unless you have a lot of land destruction in your meta. It doesn't synergize with most of your cards (Knight of the Reliquary, Sakura-Tribe Elder), so it would be better to just use the basic. It would be a shame to fail to find when you Boundless Realms

Also consider Sword of the Animist for more landfall options.

Dryad Arbor is good because you have Craterhoof Behemoth and its just one more creature to help Craterhoof overwhelm. Its even better if you run Green Sun's Zenith because you can do it for zero on turn one to get Dryad Arbor for a sort of weird mana ramp magic trick.

I agree with Animist's Awakening as it did just that for me, but some people like it.

I think the only reason you would want to run Reclamation Sage over Acidic Slime is if you ran Sun Titan for recursion. Personally I just run Aura Shards (also comes back with Sun Titan).

@lemmingllama I'm mainly running Far Wanderings, Boundless Realms, and Scapeshift for their ability to generate a bunch of landfall triggers in one go, so I'll keep them over Cultivate and Kodama's Reach.

I see your point on Flagstones of Trokair not beeing a basic, on the other hand I'm still running 20 Forest and Plains (+3 tagged as both), so I'm not that worried they will dry out. Flagstones of Trokair also is a mini-combo with Scapeshift or Crucible of Worlds + Zuran Orb . I'll keep it on probation for now.

Sword of the Animist will be awesome in the deck - I have to find room for it! Any suggestions on what to drop?

@lemmingllama/Mandalorian: Since I am running Sun Titan I will swap Reclamation Sage for Vinelasher Kudzu.

@Mandalorian I see where you are going with Dryad Arbor but I think it is too much of a hassle (summoning sicknes, dies to pings, dies to -1s, dies to destroy...) to run it.

As cities burn?

@rikshawhoward @drk_evns I did not know As Cities Burn when I named the deck... I was primarily trying to come up with a title related to 'faith can move mountains'.
