Title: Child of Alara - 5 Color Lands
Post by: JordanCirk on October 27, 2015, 02:01:44 PM
I'm currently in the process of building a 5Color lands EDH deck, similar to the legacy lands deck. Thoughts/questions/suggestions all welcome.

I'm pretty curious.
Lands in Legacy works because it consistently has {life of the loam} in hand or grave, and all it dredges is pretty much land anyway.
I think it will be a lot harder to get consistency in a 100 card singleton. But as I said: I'm interested.

 {Crucible of Worlds} And like kaykesh said  {Life from the Loam}. Also the awaken cards from BFZ will be your friend here especially  {Planar Outburst}. With the +1/+1 counters  {Inkmoth Nexus} Becomes a powerhouse of destruction

CoW and LftL are both in the deck but thank you! What I've found with the awaken cards is they truly aren't good enough in EDH. Also, my deck is not trying to beat down with lands but to abuse them.

In that case you could look at the cards that let you put extra lands into play like an  {Explore} or  {Exploration}... Ironic that both are the only two I can think of right now. And of course ramp spells like the  {Explosive Vegetation} or  {Cultivate}

{Kodama's Reach} and to control the board, throw in a sac outlet land and put {Gift of Immortality} to keep killing the baby.

Will be posting deck soon. I'll need a lot of advice on this one, it's a very hard deck to figure out.
