Mainboard Updates v.4 - Fork 4: Amulet Soup —April 8, 2025

• This update is meant to serve as an illustration of hyper-ramping tactics such as a 'Lands Matter' focused deck. In this case, I think that Amulet Titan concepts should serve to exemplify how explosive a dragon like Ureni, the Song Unending can be.

• As with most decks that follow this shell, a typical increase in land count is present, and alongside all of our previous iterations it's not out of place nor is it an obstacle we are unfamiliar with.

• The list, detailed here:

• 4x Amulet of Vigor

• 3x Arboreal Grazer

• 3x Cultivator Colossus man oh man, doesn't this card just slap the game right back at your opposition in a "wins more" type of fashion. It's an excellent card that takes up a cart that's already running off the rails, and frisbee flings it right back at your opponents with that much more fulcrum and force.

• 4x Dismember

• 3x Encroaching Dragonstorm

• 3x Flare of Cultivation

• 3x Force of Vigor

• 3x Forest

• 4x Growth Spiral is an example of doing the most with the least amount of trouble; this card is simply a better Explore and for our purposes, most if not all things need to be able to happen at instant speed.

• 2x Gruul Turf was a piece of classically built Amulet Titan architecture.

• 2x Island

• 1x Izzet Boilerworks was a piece of classically built Amulet Titan architecture.

• 3x Loot, Exuberant Explorer

• 4x Mishra's Bauble

• 2x Misty Rainforest

• 1x Mountain

• 3x Noxious Revival

• 4x Primeval Titan

• 3x Royal Treatment

• 3x Sagu Wildling is just taking advantage of as many opportunities to fetch up lands to our cause.

• 2x Scalding Tarn

• 2x Simic Growth Chamber was a piece of classically built Amulet Titan architecture.

• 3x Tormod's Crypt

• 4x Ureni, the Song Unending

• 4x Urza's Saga was a piece of classically built Amulet Titan architecture. It's meant to fetch the amulet itself or in our case, potentially bring up the other pieces of artifact that may or may not matter.

• 2x Wooded Foothills

• The deck continues to play very end-goal oriented to the task of casting Ureni, but it differs with how much preperation and deck-searching we can afford ourselves from things such as Expedition Map or even using Inscribed Tablet. The wonderful shift from a list that was importantly harnessed around basic land capability led us to changing how the mana base was arranging, and it was a huge shift.

• We removed all other basic land types and replaced them all with more Forests. that's because we won't need but a splash for everything else within our current construction.

---> (I later discovered this was a mistake and replaced our basic lands back into 3 of the Forest, and then 2 of each other basic land type within the shell.)

• I also kept typical Amulet Titan shell staples Gruul Turf and Simic Growth Chamber as a means to really take advantage of the doubling mana sources. Cultivator Colossus is our overwhelming victory swing, but the beast in the sky was our original hero.
