Hi Slyvester, thanks for the link to the primer, has a lot of good angles to try in it. I will definitely be slotting in
Sword of the Paruns into the deck as another infinite mana source.
As for the
Living Lands/
Yavimaya, Cradle of Growth dynamic, I actually use it offensively with either
Ezuri’s Predation or
Powder Keg to delete opponents mana bases and leave me still able to run with the amount of mana dorks I have. I’ll probably add protection like
Heroic Intervention and removal like Song of the Dryad’s like you mentioned though.
