Yeah, pain lands are good in budget still. But now that there are the pathways, horizon lands, slow lands, pain lands are just not as good imo. Also filter lands have dropped from 20ish dollars to 5ish dollars within the past 5 years.
Also I agree that Craterhoof is still good, it is just more difficult to compete nowadays with other powerful green cards. I could be wrong about this, but maybe in the past many green decks were homogenized to the point that craterhoof slotted into every single one of them whereas now it’s become more niche.
