I know it gets hit by all your removal but Dryad Arbor gets bonuses from your enchantments... maybe a thought. Nantuko Monastery does nicely with KotR. I think BoP seems unneccsary, perhaps -3 BoP +2 Monastery, +3 Arbor - 2 Forest? My reasoning is that if you're going to ramp, you probably want to do it through summer blood or explore, not a creature.

The new nissa seems mildly hilarious. Although probably better with more basic lands.

But I love the idea - darksteel garrison looks fantastic. (+1)

Arbor Dryad is definitely an interesting call, since I can tutor it up with a fetch, sac it to KotR, and yeah, it synergizes with my enchantments. I like it! Nantuko Monastery, unfortunately, isn't in Modern.As for the Birds, I'd like to test some before I decide to rely on Summer Bloom more heavily-- late game, Bloom might not net me any extra mana, but Birds will and it's a flying chump blocker too. I think Darksteel Garison is worth a shot, it'll find a place in the deck during testing, I'm sure. Thank you so much for the input!

Maybe put in Nissa, Worldwaker

+1

This deck is SWEET! Have you thought about trying Garruk Wildspeaker? With all the acceleration you run I think a T3 Garruk is quite reasonable and he also untaps your lands. This can provide you with a sort of pseudo Vigilance - swing with your man lands, then plus Garruk and untap them to leave back blockers.

Thanks! And OHMYGOD GARRUK. Yes. I'd been thinking about Nissa, but Garruk is actually pretty similar-- providing ramp and bodies-- for less mana. And his ultimate is really convenient, as opposed to Nissa's t9ish "please dear god don't be holding a fieldclear." As powerful as she can be, I'm only running 8 Forests, so untapping two of anything, including manlands, is great. Thanks so much you guys!

I think either Oracle of Mul Daya or Courser of Kruphix could do work here. Not sure what to take out for them, but I think they'd make cool additions.

I love this, where can I get one? Does Vesuva or Thespian's Stage work here? Dark Depths maybe if you add the Stage. I'm just thinking out loud here...

Looking ever better, I dont know if it has been mentioned yet, but Blinkmoth Nexus - I know it doesnt solve your problem...

Valorous Stance seems toolboxy.

Sacred Ground comes out one turn earlier than Terra but doesnt do combat stuff. - SB maybe?And I like Courser of Kruphix as I'm still not a fan of BoP in this deck - although your 3 drop is pretty clustered. - 4 Witness seems a bit much.

If you need the mana of BoP and money isn't an issue, try Lotus Cobra with fetches - technically Dryad can be fetched so the money option is there.

Lotus Cobra can definitely get really crazy with Explore - if you happen to have 2 fetches you can generate mana in one turn.

I also think that anytime you run Knight of the Reliquary it's at least worth considering running 1 Gavony Township and 1 Sejiri Steppe. I admit that Gavony isn't at its best here, but later in the game it can turn your manlands into monsters. Steppe is a great way to protect your Knight of the Reliquary or one of your lands in a pinch.

Personally, I love Valorous Stance-- kills Siege Rhino and Goyf, and if it doesn't hit your opponent's things, it can save yours. I'm sold on that one.I've considered Courser of Kruphix, but that three drop slot really is clogged... As for Lotus Cobra vs Birds, I don't usually get to cast Birds t1 anyway so again, done deal (waaah the deck is getting further from my budget T.T). I don't know why I forgot about Sejiri Steppe, you're absolutely right. As for Gavony Township, it would cost so much to activate it plus a manland that I just don't think it would work here. And I didn't even realize Vesuva was in Modern! Always just saw it in LGC Twelvepost decks... Great fit here :) Oracle of Mul Daya, while a beautiful, beautiful card, is a bit slow in this deck, and that price tag and mana cost on a 2/2 body makes me hesitant. Blinkmoth Nexus might be good, but having too many uncolored lands worries me... still, it has synergy with Mutavault, so it definitely gets considered.

I'm thinking:

-4 Birds of Paradise, - 2 Eternal Witness, -1 Dromoka's Command,-2 Plains.

+4 Lotus Cobra, +2 Courser of Kruphix, +1 Valorous Stance, +1 Sejiri Steppe, +1 Vesuva

Further from your budget, but closer to victory!
