Be an ass, play this deck!

Grouphug is bullshit. K&T, in true Roman fashion, are coming for your lands!

The deck looks to play lands quickly, even allowing opponents some extra land drops. Once they are ripe for the picking, you blow them all up with mass land destruction (MLD)! At this point we've hopefully; A) recurred our lands into play, or B) Have creatures which utilize the stacked graveyards to win.

deck was inspired by JumboCommander's deck

Lands Show

Bounce Lands

Azorius Chancery, Simic Growth Chamber, Gruul Turf, Rith's Grove, Treva's Ruins

In most EDH decks, bouncelands are a budget inclusion. Ran for other reasons besides viability. However, in this deck, they are a vital source advantage.

This deck thrives off of Landfall triggers, replaying lands, and other such land-orientated shenanigans. making the "Return a land you control to its owner's hand" clause an actual benefit, as we can then replay that land for more landfall triggers.

Counter Lands

Aether Hub, Tendo Ice Bridge, Gemstone Mine

In most decks these lands are one-shot, painless, 5-color lands. In this deck, with the inclusion of bouncelands, land recursion and land-bouncing effects. These lands are reusable and ideal targets for bouncing/ replaying.

Cycle Lands

Ash Barrens, Irrigated Farmland, Tranquil Thicket, Sheltered Thicket and Scattered Groves

Another usual include in budget lists. Though these are painful early game, at the late stages these are amazing as you can bounce the back to hand and cycle. After a card: life from the laom, or Creeping Renaissance you cycle these away for more advantage.

The Amonket Dual land cycle were nice improvements to the deck. Adding more fetchable lands and color sources.

Fetch Lands

Flooded Strand, Wooded Foothills, Windswept Heath, Scalding Tarn, Arid Mesa and Misty Rainforest

With all this land recursion in the deck these are an excellent fixing choice! Who doesn't want to reuse a fetchland?

Shock Lands

Temple Garden, Hallowed Fountain, Stomping Ground, Breeding Pool, Sacred Foundry, Steam Vents

Standard in every deck. Great fixing that can come in untapped and are fetchable with fetchlands.

5-Color Lands

Command Tower, Mana Confluence, City of Brass, Reflecting Pool

This is a 4-color deck. These babies are crucial for fixing and are worth their minor drawbacks (if any).

Utility Lands

Glacial Chasm: (AKA Chastity belt) Hilarious wall. The deck's ability to bounce it back into hand to allow attacks and reset the cumulative upkeep. love it. Chromatic Lantern also allows this to tap for mana.Crop Rotation can search it out in times of need.

Petrified Field: the deck's lands end up in the graveyard all the time. having the ability to sacrifice this to get a much needed fixer/other utility land is great.

Ghost Town: Free bouncing for landfall triggers. Fits the decks strategy to a T.

Horizon Canopy: Color fixing with he upside of being able to cycle while in play. I'm lucky enough to have one sitting in a binder.

Control Show

Board wipes

Supreme Verdict, Wrath of God, Cyclonic Rift and Catastrophe

Every deck needs these. They reset the board when things aren't going our way.

Spot Removal

Swords to Plowshares, Path to Exile, Song of the Dryads, Chaos Warp and Beast Within

Every deck needs these. I cut the counterspells as the double blue requirement meant they weren't online until the late game.

Artifact Hate

Aura Shards, Vandalblast, Austere Command

This decks removes their lands to gain a foothold. We also need to ensure their pesky artifact-based ramp also hits the bin. These cards do just that.

Miscellaneous

Admonition Angel: Oh baby, this card can be a blow-out! Anytime we Manabond this card gets just stupid. Smaller amounts of value are also gained through are land bouncing and multiple landfall triggers per turn shenanigans.

Constant Mists: A recurrable fog. Since we run so much land recursion this seems like an excellent inclusion.

Lands Matter Show

Land Returners

Trade Routes, Mina and Denn, Wildborn, Meloku the Clouded Mirror

Land returning is pivotal to this deck. They can either be used to return land to hand to replay, or to save lands by returning them to hand when we go to MLD.

Trade Routes: is a cheap CMC enchantment that no one will go out of their way to deal with. Used mostly for returning lands to my hand to either replay or save. Making every land be able to cycle is just butter that will be used in tight situations, or before a Splendid Reclamation

Mina and Denn, Wildborn: M&D make the cut as getting as many land drops as possible is a priority for this deck. The trample will become very handy post-MLD for Centaur Vinecrasher or another threat. Will become a Oracle of Mul Daya once it is reprinted.

Meloku the Clouded Mirror: Make an army of 1/1's before you MLD, or chump blockers when necessary.

Token Producers

Avenger of Zendikar!!!, Omnath, Locus of Rage, Rampaging Baloths, Titania, Protector of Argoth

Avenger of Zendikar: Green staple that goes in every one of my decks. This deck just so happens to boost those plant tokens even quicker.

Omnath, Locus of Rage & Rampaging Baloths: Landfall Token producers. both start turning out massive bodies at a rampant rate once our land engine is running. hopefully we have a lot of lands in hand and Manabond in play.

Titania, Protector of Argoth: Opposite of the other token producers. Titania wants MLD while in play to destroy the hopeless. One of the better cards in the deck.

Terravore & Centaur Vinecrasher: The solo-swinging finishers for the post-Armageddon era. Close the game while everyone tries to recover.

Card Draw Show

Horn of Greed: Usually a group hug card, but with our land manipulation we will get, by far, the most value from it at the table. Interestingly, it does not trigger off of K&T.

Rhystic Study: If you're playing blue, you should play the study.

Sylvan Library: If you're playing green, you should play the library.

Seer's Sundial & Tireless Tracker: landfall triggered draw at a cost. tireless tracker is better due to being able to "store" the draws in clues, allowing draws to be made when mana is more readily available.

Recursion Show

Creeping Renaissance: return all them lands back to your hand post-MLD. Flashback is great for doing it again for creatures, or lands... cause we MLD'd again. Also provides an out if dredged away by Life from the Loam

Life from the Loam: Speaking of which, this is an obvious include in the deck. Great card.

Splendid Reclamation: Manabonding from the graveyard. Dream is to do this post-MLD with a token producer in play.

Obviously, Crucible of Worlds should be in this deck. I'm holding out for a MM17 reprint, fingers crossed!

Tutors Show

Bring to Light: Played over better Intuition as it fetches out MLD and plays it. Though a 4-color deck, this usually fetches for 5 cmc and below due to the counter lands and 5-color lands, making it slightly better here than in most commander decks. I want to use it to fetch Sunder out with Manabond in play. #Dreams

Crop Rotation: Fetches out utility lands (like maze or chastity belt). Can also grab better mana-fixing if truly needed.

Defense of the Heart: a lower CMC Tooth and Nail. Grabs so many sweet synergistic pieces in this deck. What you grab depends entirely on your hand/board state.

Enlightened Tutor: We run a lot of great enchantments and Sol Ring in the deck. Card is good.

Gamble: Only catch-all tutor in the deck. Pitching a card is hilarious even though it can screw you over.

Mystical Tutor: We run a lot of great instants and sorceries in the deck. Card is good.

Ramp Show

Azusa, Lost but Seeking: two additional land drops? errmergerdddd

Birds of Paradise: Multi-colored commander deck staple.

Burgeoning: Best turn-one card ever. More instances to play lands.

Chromatic Lantern: Color fixing and ramp all on one card. Lets chastity belt tap for mana.

Exploration: More instances to play lands.

Lotus Cobra: This card generates all the mana in this strategy. So, so good.

Manabond: Talked about this card a lot throughout the primer. Combos very well with Sunder and post-MLD. there are going to be a lot of situations were this card is the nuts.

Mirari's Wake: staple. Goes in all decks which can run it.

Sol Ring: OP as heck. Have to play it.

Tempt with Discovery: Go ahead, grab a land for me to blow up later.

card:Uncharted Realms: Grabbing 4 lands from our deck is great.

Veteran Explorer: who cares if they get lands? Imma blow them up later.

Mass Land Destruction Show

Armageddon, Ravages of War, Cataclysm, Impending Disaster, Sunder

Not much to say here really. I think this is the correct amount of MLD to have one when required.

Protection Show

Boros Charm & Heroic Intervention: Give your lands indestructible before you MLD :)

Mother of Runes: A staple, protect your threats.

Sylvan Safekeeper: This deck contains many bombs. This little wizards helps us keep them on the battlefield.

Budget Exclusions Show

ABUR duals

Volcanic Island, Tundra, Taiga, Tropical Island, Plateau, Savannah

As if I could afford them

Miscellaneous

Crucible of Worlds: Auto-include, but too high of a chance for reprint. Soon as that happens it's in.

Scapeshift: probably in an upcoming reprint set. I'll pick it up then.

Oracle of Mul Daya Great card, too expensive for it's impact though. Severely needs a reprint.

Didn't Make the Cut Show

Knight of the Reliquary: Not playing enough plains to make it worth running.

Obliterate & Decree of Annihilation: Really high CMC made me prefer other MLD spells. If I need more MLD in the deck these would be the go-to's.

Parallax Tide: saves 5 lands for 4 mana. Better cards out there for that cmc.

Tilling Treefolk: pretty sweet little card, but low impact.

Expedition cycle: Ior Ruin Expedition, card:Khani Ruin Expedition are the best two, simply no room for them.

Soratami Cycle: Soratami Cloudskater is the best one and it doesn't make the cut.
