Deck Help forum

Hiya!
I have this deck in the making, and i could really use some help.
The deck revolves around Karametra, God of Harvests and Sporemound . With them i can get out all my lands in a single turn, and strike them with 20-something tokens who, with the help of Biomass Mutation , are 20-something/20-something.
Would love some input on this.

Lol when I saw "combo" and "karametra" in the title I thought this may have been the problem. Keep searching! There are some combos out there :)

Yup, it was too good to be true! Note to self: read the F'ing card text!

You're probably looking more at Standard combos, but Amulet of Vigor helps her a lot in modern, along with cards like Fleetfoot Panther and Whitemane Lion . There are several other cards with a similar ability, but Flash makes those two stand out a bit more.

In a commander deck, I've already devised using her with Enduring Renewal , Ornithopter , and any one of various sac outlets... mainly thinking or Ashnod's Altar or Phyrexian Altar .
Cast... search for land... sac for mana... return to hand... repeat.
End result - all land in play, and unlimited mana to cast... whatever you need/want.
Of course, there is the issue of finding ways to get more creatures to cast... but there should be ways to get around the inability to draw them.

There are definitely many interesting things to do with the card, and i'm currently looking at stuff to utlize her.Being a W/G, there's a limited amount of ways to get your creatures back, but splashing black might solve that. Other than that, Prophet of Kruphix could be a good fix for getting creatures out each turn, and sacing them for more mana. Adding blue also makse card draw more available.
Still think that Biomass Mutation is the way to go here in terms of damage, and that still makes Sporemound an OK creature to have in this. I'll be sure to post my final build, but I figure it's gonna take a while :)

Read Karametra's text carefully. The trigger is clearly stated as "Whenever you CAST a creature spell". The tokens generated by Sporemound are not cast. They are spawned by Sporemound's Landfall-like triggered ability. Hence whenever such a token enters the battlefield, Karametra's ability won't trigger.
