Sultai moonfolk?

I built this deck for fun (gross and weird) landfall interactions featuring my favorite tribe in Magic – moonfolk! Well, there’s only three in here… but they all pull their own weight.

This deck shoots for strange and fun interactions, eventually landing on late-game big spells or infinite landfall combos.

Combos and Interactions

Dimir Aqueduct + Simic Growth Chamber + Archelos, Lagoon Mystic + Patron of the Moon — Infinite mana and infinite landfall. Works with any two bounce lands.

Retreat to Coralhelm + Sakura-Tribe Scout /Walking Atlas/Llanowar Scout + Oboro, Palace in the Clouds/Trade Routes/Meloku the Clouded Mirror — Infinite landfall. Meloku makes infinite birds! Bouncing a bounce land with Archelos, Lagoon Mystic in play will also generate infinite mana; they'll enter untapped. allowing you to always generate an extra mana before they return to your hand.

Constant Mists + Ramunap Excavator/Crucible of Worlds/Ancient Greenwarden/Muldrotha, the Gravetide — Can't touch this!

Yedora, Grave Gardener + Trade Routes/Meloku the Clouded Mirror/Uyo, Silent Prophet/any bounce land — Pseudo-recursion. It's janky, but it works! Creatures you control dying with Yedora in play will also create landfall triggers, which is pretty cool.

Ashaya, Soul of the Wild + Trade Routes/Meloku the Clouded Mirror/Uyo, Silent Prophet/any bounce land — Grants you the ability to bounce any of your creatures back to your hand.

Malakir Rebirth  /Glasspool Mimic  /Bala Ged Recovery   + Trade Routes/Meloku the Clouded Mirror/Uyo, Silent Prophet/any bounce land — Let's get those MDFC cards back in our hand! Playing these cards as lands is pretty risk-free if we can cast them as spells later in the game.

Scapeshift + Splendid Reclamation — Classic "get all the lands" scenario. As a last minute resort, sacrificing all the lands you obtained with Scapeshift with Squandered Resources will usually get you the mana you need for a gigantic X spell ( Torment of Hailfire or Villainous Wealth ). Titania, Protector of Argoth adds a little extra spice to this interaction.

Archelos, Lagoon Mystic + Springleaf Drum/Cryptolith Rite/Holdout Settlement — Stall out the game until you're able to have fun. Unless you really need the mana, I wouldn't do this until your end step. Alternatively, swinging Archelos into an open opponent will achieve the same effect. "If he dies, he dies"; recasting Archelos shouldn't be an issue with this deck.

Ashaya, Soul of the Wild + Roil Elemental + Sylvan Safekeeper — Good luck getting your creatures back!

Cyclonic Rift + Sunder — Let's play another game, guys!

In conclusion

This is one of the most fun decks I've ever put together. There's still other weird interactions I haven't encountered yet. It's a pretty adaptive deck by preference, too; if you want to play with more counterspells and removal, you can do that! At one point I had Voidslime, Disallow, Plasm Capture and Arcane Denial in here, but I felt like they watered down the deck a little too much. Leaning a little more into Archelos, Lagoon Mystic's second ability can neuter the game for your opponents more frequently, but that's not really what I'm going for here.

I appreciate any and all feedback! Make sure to upvote if you enjoyed this list! Cheers.
