This thing's close but not quite there. I played a couple 1v1 games with it the other day and it was alright. Needs more lands and more card draw. Kinda petered out after turn 5 both games. Landfall is cool, but seems kinda unreliable as a primary mechanic :/

Definitely putting more time into Animar's standalone deck rn, but I've made some decisions about this one as well. After re-sorting through all of the cards for the original jumbled deck, I think this deck will lean more on land rather than mana dorks, as 1. there are relatively few elemental mana dorks, 2. we want omnath's landfall triggers, 3. elementals and land go together like peas in a pod. Landfall and 1/1 counters will feature as sub-themes, because why not?
Today at the cards store, I bought beast whisperer and lumbering falls

Today I've decided to make two decks out of the ideas I had for Animar. This one will use my most recent idea: using mana dorks and colorless creatures to ramp into big free eldrazis or something. The other will use the original idea: creature-heavy elemental tribal stuff, but I'll build it around both Animar and Omnath, Locus of the Roil as Commanders. Bye for now

I started out with this one really wanting to do something different. I really wanted to make it an Elemental tribal deck. However, I've run into a problem with that- Elementals just... aren't very cohesive or good. Cards I was finding just kept wanting to pull me toward another synergy, whether it be Landfall, +1/+1 counters, or "creature ramping" into free colorless boss monsters. Finally reaching the turning point now, where I'm scrapping the original idea for one or two of these new ones. I had the same problem in the Korvold deck, where I was stuck on a Landfall aspect that didn't need to be there at all. That's all on this for now, wish me luck
