I'm honestly really torn, i'm not sure if this is unfocused or a more tuned version of Yarok's Landfall. How consistent is this vs the other landfall build without the "goodstuff"?

I dont know, i feel like the deck could be more tune it feel like the deck as an identity crysis dose it want to be a yargol enter de batelfeild or a landfall deck i think the deck would benifite if you stear away from the "good stuff" and focus more on the landfall/land matter part. That is my opignion beacause i have a prety cuttroat meta every one play highly tune deck so i tend to evaluate deck as if it could rivalis in my meta if your goal is to have a more casual deck then the deck seem very good but if you want to get the deck as good as it could go i feel like you would benefit going in a more narow direction...sorry bad english XD

@deathchobo this deck is not a full on landfall build, but there are ways to trigger landfall additional times. Sylvan Safekeeper can sac all the lands and World Shaper can bring them back, Muldrotha can play lands from the GY, and Scapeshift can outright win games. Coiling Oracle , Risen Reef , Solemn Simulacrum , and Wood Elves can be ninjutsued back to my hand with Fallen Shinobi or Yuriko, the Tiger's Shadow and played again, blinked with Deadeye Navigator , or copied with Bramble Sovereign . I have not tested the deck much but I will be playing it this weekend so I'll find out what areas need tuned up. My meta is pretty ruthless as well so I'll see how well I do. Thanks for the comments and feedback!
@Meta1911 I played a full on landfall build two weeks ago and it wasn't fun, it was too reliant on lands and it seemed like everything required an extra step to work since I needed Yarok, a card with landfall, and a land to trigger the ability. This build keeps the more fun landfall cards and a toolbox of other goodies. One of my favorite parts is the large suite of spells I can fetch with Spellseeker or Muddle the Mixture . Thanks for your comment and feedback!

Hello fellow Yarok player here! I really like your list!
I built my deck much with the same philosophy as yours. I had a Muldrotha Birthing Pod deck that switched to Yarok with more ETBs and not so much focus on Landfall. I wanna ask, you have quite a few cards that depend on Landfall but a 34 land count and not so much ramp (6 pieces); How does that work for you? Do you mulligan a lot, do you get lucky draws?
Thanks!

@Crav96 thanks for the comment! I don't normally have issues with the mana base or landfall triggers. In addition to those ramp cards I also run several cards that recur lands from the graveyard such as Life from the Loam , Muldrotha, the Gravetide , Titania, Protector of Argoth , and World Shaper . Those in addition to 10 lands which are easy to get into the GY (such as fetches) help smooth out some additional land drops to get those triggers. However, that's not even the point of the landfall triggers. They are nice to get organically here and there but the main thing is Scapeshift ing for insane value. The majority of the games this deck has won are from Scapeshift . Once 10 lands are out with a creature with a landfall trigger, for this example lets use Dread Presence , then you are looking at Scapeshift dealing 20 damage, gaing 20 life, and then Field of the Dead giving 10 zombies and I also usually search for Dark Depths and Thespian's Stage too, just for fun.
