Hedron Crab didn't have SHIT on Halimar Excavator. God help you if you ever did more than one WWK a draft. If it was triple, stay the fuck away from blue and let everyone else fight over 'em while you play a real magic limited deck.

I also wanted the opposite of landfall for this set: a mechanic that triggers on land going to the graveyard. Get the other fetches plus a common cycle of lands that come into play tapped, tap for their color mana, and can sac for a cantrip-level effect. Maybe a few uncommon non-color specific lands (tectonic edge reprint?)

Dryad Arbor style manland cycle. All 1/1s, probably, each with a unique ability. Vigilance, Prowess, Regenerate, Haste, Trample.
A land with prowess would be rigoddamndicubroken. First strike would at least be feasible but prowess can fuck right the fuck off.
Eh, its good on defense, bad on offense. Could go with Flying for Blue instead. Also Trample is sort of terrible on a 1/1 but Hexproof would be stupidly good.

That is interesting. I like it.
I don't see them doing it because it's just too complicated for new players. It involves a high level of decision making to decide when to kill your own lands (because they aren't making opponent land destruction a big thing ever) and when not too. Would lead to lots of feel bad moments.
Retrace is one of the lynchpins of my modern deck. Counter that flame jab all you want.
Please tell me you're on the Smallpox/Loam/Bloodghast deck. Friend of mine put it together and it just oozes so much value onto the table you need a shamwow to soak it up.
"Oh yeah, Zombie Infestation, discard Bloodghast and Lingering Souls. Play my land, Bloodghast into play. Flashback Lingering Souls."

"+2 Liliana, discarding Squee."
"Ravens Crime you 4 times."
These are all phrases that make my nethers warm.

With cruel ultimatum. It's the backup plan for the backup plan in case the backup plan fails
I responded to it on the stack with a fog to cover my ass that turn, then luckily hit the jackpot with a treasure cruise on a pair of tutelages for the kill, but one turn earlier and I would have been buttfucked

Look man, I just hate everything about the idea of Eldrazi cards

Eldrazi are dumb dumbs.

It is on a land that you need to be tapping if you want to play spells to use it.
it would be insane in something like a burn deck even if it only made colorless mana
if you combine it with cheap spells it gets really good, really fast

I don't think burn wants to be a turn behind on mana on turns 1-3. And it will never get bigger than a 3/3.
It would be good, but not as good as you think, at least not in Standard. It would probably be a metagame changer in Modern and Legacy.
yeaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhh

The magic equivalent of flailing his arms and banging his head on the table.
Seems like games 3 and 4 he started to get it together. Had to leave work before I could catch the end of 4 and 5 tho.

Ugh, work.
Isn't it just the worst?

deck is super fun despite not being "the best"
I beat a really good local player on abzan aggro without sideboarding since I didn't have anything particularly great vs him anyway
meanwhile harbinger kept bouncing his warden of the first tree over and over until he had invested like 9 mana into it before it could hit me
just ate two abzan aggro players alive with sacrifice effects
