i want to add some Dragonskull Summit s to my im lonely so confort me grixis deck. reasons for wanting so it the amount of red land sources i currently run its low. problem is only things i can ditch are Swamp s but atm am at 12 swamps due to Mutilate as a wipe card.

i think 2 summits will be enought but am reluctant to remove bringing my swmpa count to 10... removing blue is out of question cus lowing those brings issues to Dissipate etc.

So will 10 Swamp s be enough for a descent Mutilate (generaly want to cast for 3swamp)

try running shock lands like bloodcrypt hall, I think that is the name. It counts as a swamp but is still fixing

The issue here is that you are sacrificing the effectiveness of your deck for one card. If mutilate doesn't work with what you need the deck to do, then ditch it. There is plenty of Grixis builds that don't run it. Use the slot for something else that can can clear a board without relying on swanps.
