This is a deck that I have been working on and tweaking for a long time, now. I really like the idea of Landfall and cycling lands in and out of the graveyard. Origionally this was meant to be a deck that focused on Borborgymos Enraged, but that has since fallen by the wayside. Newer cards like Renegade Rallier and Splendid Reclamation have really helped this deck run. There are a few cards that are coming out in Ahmonket that I have my eyes on, too. Namely the Bicycle Lands and some of the Embalm cards. I always feel like I want to splash black in this deck, but I feel like the parts are so tight as it is, that fourth color wouldn't work; it will eventually be its own deck, I'm sure.

This deck focuses on two major powerhouses Countryside Crusher and Knight of the Reliquary. Fetch lands make them both seriously powerful very quickly. Using Magmatic Insight puts more lands in the yard. And then Life from the Loam can get them back.

Lotus Cobra nets huge amounts of mana from fetches and sacrifices; and has (non-exile) removal 'protection' with Renegade Rallier. Top end is Rampaging Baloths (a personal favorite card) and with a Splendid Reclamation requires a answer. Steppe Lynx is just a solid Landfall card for as cheap as they get. I think it just edges out Makindi Sliderunner , the lower CMC I think helps more than the Trample. Devastating Summons is a fun card that is a decent late game play that can load the yard with lands and make big creatures. Ghost Quarter is a great utility land that can be used offensively and defensively. The sideboard is a WIP right now.

C&C needed. Especially looking for a good mana sink for late game, thinking of Kessig Wolf Run or maybe even Secure the Wastes .

Big changes after a while of sitting on the idea.
