DECK DOCTOR

Thanks for the reccomendations! Yea, there are still some ghosts left in the deck after all the revisions it has gone through, like the chromatic lantern and smokestack (no really). Didn't know about any win-con with the nim deathmantle either, Ill have to check that out. I guess I left out a lot of removal because I thought my commander WAS removal, but looking at it now its probably much more efficient to have a variety removal options. The part I struggle with most is figuring out which cards to cut...

yeah you guys had similar decks. so you kind of get a double dose of advice.

I did put in cataclysmic gearhulk and false prophet. Im also just stubborn about Reya, I just love her.

Also I don't think there are any infinite combos left in the deck, besides sun titan and gift of immortality with either ashnods altar or phyrexian altar, and I'm not actively trying to assemble that. Btw leonin relic warder is actually for removal in my deck, you can sacrifice it in response to its etb so that the ltb doesn't bring the target artifact/enchantment back. The same is true for fiend hunter.

I wish I was more clear about what I was doing, I was in the middle of some drastic changes to the deck. The first one I sent you was very very combo heavy but I wasn't happy with it. The one you see now is not the same deck pretty much at all. The reason I have the fetch lands and the sacrifice lands (scorched ruins, lotus field, and lotus vale) is for cards like brought back, second sunrise, faith's reward, sevinnes reclamation, putting crucible in was just the natural step after that. I know planar birth is fragile in the deck, but for when I have it and my graveyard is full of lands after milling, it's amazing, and it's also good with the sacrifice lands (I'm not actively sacrificing my lands with aura fracture or zuran orb, there's not enough enchantments in my meta to justify aura fracture, and I'm not going to put zuran orb in just so I can use planar birth with it, again, too fragile.)

it was me who had the mono-white lands deck. wish I could've seen Brett's deck doctor before I sent mine off, a lot of good recommendations here :) I'd personally recommend Abolish, as it can get plains into the graveyard and remove artifacts/enchantments, which the deck didn't seem to do a lot of from what I saw
