We're back in Zendikar, my darling deckbuilders! The threat of the Eldrazi are gone and one of Magic's most loved planes is now finally able to heal and we are able to witness it. With the Eldrazi in our rearview, we are able to experience the richness this plane has to offer. Zendikar can finally rebuild, and we have one particular Elemental to thank for that: Omnath, Locus of Creation.
So how the heck do you build a lands deck? To be honest, I find this particular theme to be one of the hardest to build around due to the sheer volume of avenues you can take with it. However, when I saw Omnath, Locus of Creation, landfall good stuff was the concept that came to the forefront of my mind, and serendipity strikes us again due to the fact that landfall is a wonderful ability that we are just now seeing the return of in Zendikar Rising! A disclaimer, however, that at the time this deck was built, not all of the spoilers were released for Rising. Despite this, we are still able to build a cohesive list that utilizes a lot of new and old pieces.

Believe it or not, but a lands deck wants to play as many lands as possible. It's true! However, the rules state that we can only play one land per turn (thanks stupid rules). This makes our goal of free real estate incredibly difficult...or so we thought!
Dryad of the Ilysian Grove||Wayward Swordtooth||Azusa, Lost but Seeking||Mina and Denn, Wildborn||Oracle of Mul Daya
These cards are just a few that allow us to ramp out of control and are imperative to our deck's goal. Redundancy in Commander is never a bad thing! In hard times we can utilize these abilities as ramp, however, with Omnath, Locus of Creation out they allow us to gain life, add four mana to our mana pool, and deal four damage to each opponent and each Planeswalker they control! This will get us ahead not only manawise, but in life as well. If we have all of these creatures out at once, the allure of dumping as many lands as we can will be strong. However, this is a play we want to avoid. Omnath, Locus of Creation's landfall ability is incredibly specific; it only triggers three times per turn, meaning dumping out all of our lands is not the move to make in this particular brew. Once we hit the four damage portion of Omnath, Locus of Creation, they chill out, take a nap, and says "eh, I'm just not feeling it anymore," so it's important to be strategic in how many lands we play per turn. Yes, ramp is the name of the game, but careful ramp is needed in order to maximize Omnath, Locus of Creation's abilities.
What if I told you that this deck had trees with very large fists? Intrigued? I knew you would be! There are a handful of ways we can achieve victory with this deck. This way just so happens to involve extremely large creatures contingent on how many lands we control, like Rubblemaster, Multani, Yavimaya's Avatar, and Ashaya, Soul of the Wild. However, I want to specifically highlight two other land-dependent creatures that make this path to victory painful for all who get in our way. The first card is Ulvenwald Hydra. At first glance, this card seems to be exactly like the ones I listed previously. However, it's greatest asset lies in its enters-the-battlefield trigger, allowing us to tutor for any land and put it onto the battlefield tapped. The keyword here is land. That means we can snag anything we need, be it a Rogue's Passage, Glacial Chasm, or Field of the Dead. Being able to snag any land is very powerful and can also trigger Omnath, Locus of Creation in a pinch.
The final card I want to highlight is Radha, Heart of Keld. From her low cost to her laundry list of abilities, she packs a wallop in a land-centric deck. Thanks to her, we are able to look at and play lands from the top of our library. While this can be helpful to our ramping goals, I also find this ability useful in helping us plan our next turn if the card on top just so happens to be a non-land. Knowing what comes next is always a useful strategy. However, her true potential lies in her six-mana ability. She can buff herself based on how many lands we control, and the best part is that this ability is repeatable! If we have a Nyxbloom Ancient out, all we have to do is tap two lands for her to get out of control. Pairing her with Rogue's Passage helps her slip past our opponent's defenses to deliver a lethal punch to the face!
We talked about our big beaters, but what about the little guys? Generating tokens just by playing lands is the very definition of landfall good stuff and this deck has no shortage of those pieces. Zendikar's Roil and Omnath, Locus of Rage are two token generators in this deck that interact with one of Standard's most dreaded elementals: Risen Reef. Many times have I seen this card go off on Arena, lagging the client with the immense amount of triggers. While we aren't allowed to run a playset (come on rules, you're killing us), these two pieces allow us to put Risen Reef's ability into maximum overdrive! So many lands that make elementals that trigger Risen Reef to put out lands which then trigger...whew! I think you get the idea. It's disgusting! I love it! While our remaining two token generators don't make elementals, they are still incredibly important towards our agenda! These final two pieces are Rampaging Baloths and Avenger of Zendikar. If I could have one wish, it would be that Avenger of Zendikar could make elementals rather than plants. Despite this, Avenger of Zendikar remains an incredibly powerful piece in the deck. Dropped on the battlefield late game, Avenger of Zendikar creates a flood of tokens that will only get bigger once we hit many of our land drops. Whether you want them to serve as attackers or little leafy meat shields, Avenger of Zendikar is 100% a necessity for a lands deck.
Rarity does not always indicate a card's strength and power. Today's MVP, Tatyova, Benthic Druid, is a prime example of this. Tatyova, Benthic Druid is a powerhouse of a card and is a prime example of the strength of Simic. While she may not have the keyword landfall, her ability still triggers whenever a land enters the battlefield under her owner's control, and boy is her ability incredible: card draw and life gain for each land. While this might come across as one life and and extra card draw per turn, this card is by no means ever that simple; in a deck that can consistently loop lands coming into play, Tatyova, Benthic Druid goes from one extra card per turn to a Sphinx's Revelation. Instead of one life, we gain as much as we want (before we draw our entire deck, at least). Her ability becomes easily broken in this deck, making her a key asset.
Excavation is a hidden gem of a card that allows us card draw cards for sacrificing land. Hurting for life? Zuran Orb has us covered! Wanna continuously fog the field? May I introduce you to Constant Mists? Looking for a handful of specific lands but just can't draw them? Let's cast a Scapeshift! This deck is filled to the brim with funny land sac outlets. The benefits of them are absolutely outrageous and are maximized even more when we have Titania, Protector of Argoth out (more elementals to trigger our Risen Reef)!
So we know that we can get some serious value from sacrificing lands! However, the fact that we just reduced our mana base by a huge chunk is gonna hurt, right? WRONG! This is a lands deck! And lands decks require shenanigans and boy do I have the perfect shenanigans cards to share with you! Ramunap Excavator and Crucible of Worlds are infamously powerful cards and a must for our sacrifice outlets, as they eliminate the worry and pressure! Even without our sacrifice outlets, they're still incredibly useful when playing fetches! However, these are only two cards in a sea of a deck. It isn't guaranteed that we will get these out exactly when we need them. Fret not, my darling deck builder! We still have a solution: Splendid Reclamation. Instead of playing lands from our 'yard one by one, they all return in one large tapped chunk! One this spell resolves, it will be triggers galore for Omnath, Locus of Creation, Zendikar's Roil, and Risen Reef! Paired with a Primal Amulet, we have a sea of untapped lands waiting to be utilized or even sacrificed again for even greater value!
Sakura-Tribe Scout||Retreat to Coralhelm||Simic Growth Chamber
This a combo many landfall and Omnath, Locus of Creation players are well-acquainted with. However, this does not mean the combo is any less potent. Want infinitely big plant tokens? How about hundreds of life? What about an infinite amount of 2/2 elementals? Or maybe we could deal four commander damage to each opponent every single turn? LOOK AT ALL THESE OPTIONS!!! The three key players for this combo are Sakura-Tribe Scout/Skyshroud Ranger, Retreat to Coralhelm, and a bounce-land: The bounce-land targets itself when it enters itself, and Retreat to Coralhelm untaps the creature. Tap the creature to put the bounce-land back onto the battlefield and that's the loop! With Omnath, Locus of Creation out, we can do this three times during ours or anyone else's turn to gain life, ramp, and deal damage all at the same time! However, we aren't done here! When paired with Tatyova, Benthic Druid, this becomes a great life gain and card draw engine. Need tokens? Having Zendikar's Roil allows us to make as many 2/2s as we want! This wacky little combo can turn annoying and eventually deadly. Drawing as many cards as we want, gaining a ton of life, and building up an army of tokens all by playing a land seems absolutely disgusting...so of course we have to play it!
Genesis Wave||Finale of Devastation||Jaya's Immolating Inferno
Let's face it. Sometimes tokens aren't enough. Big beefy beaters are great too, but sometimes it's difficult to break through our opponents defenses. Don't worry, this happens! However, we have ways to get around this little speed bump in our master, Poison Ivy-sequel plan! In a deck flush with mana, X spells are a Magic player's best friend. This particular lists runs three (though going forward, I'd most likely add a few more). The first X spell is Genesis Wave. This card is a staple amongst green players, and for good reason! Dumping an obscene amount of mana into this allows us to put permanent cards into play without paying their mana cost! Dump enough mana into this and we can essentially put our entire deck onto the battlefield.
Our next X spell is one of the best cards printed in War of the Spark: Finale of Devastation! This card is Green Sun's 2.0! Not only does it allow us to tutor for a big green creature, but it buffs all of our other creatures on the battlefield as well! Sure, 20 2/2's are annoying but 20 12/12's with haste are another story entirely! This card is a two birds with one stone piece that is another powerhouse piece in this tech.
Lastly, we have one of my favorite red spells ever printed: Jaya's Immolating Inferno. There are moments in Commander games when our opponent's defenses are too strong! We have the tokens but not enough to make contact. We are just too short to climb this obstacle. But it's okay! We can just rain hellfire instead. Jaya's Immolating Inferno is the perfect card for burning every single one of our opponents. This card was made for shots to the face! Dumping mana into this card will guarantee equal damage to three different that are not divided. This makes it a game-ender when stealthily played. It also makes potent removal for the biggest and nastiest of Eldrazi that try to invade our plane once more. Either way, something will get burned.
This is a beefy deck and also a deck that initially caused me stress (evinced in my many groans of frustration in my video). I have always had a draw towards the versatility of land decks. No two are exactly alike. While I normally like to wait for the full set preview to be out, my excitement got the best of me and I found myself building almost immediately. My mind is still racing with other possible interpretations, so rather than saying what I'd add to the deck moving forward, I'd like to highlight a completely different take on Omnath, Locus of Creation I'd like to build going forward: land creatures.deck.
I do have one final somewhat unrelated thought though: do you think we'll get a WUBRG Omnath if Phyrexia decides to invade Zendikar? Is this me reaching or is this me cracking the code? Your move, WotC.
