So Warden great in a Landfall deck like this one, but easily fits into any White deck that runs a good amount of fetchlands, which the Warden synergizes particularly well with: playing and cracking a Flooded Strand gives you two landfall triggers to exile two cards, and you can even exile the Flooded Strand itself, putting it back into play once the Warden dies, which is a sweet (but convoluted) way to ramp in White. It's similar to the Commander staple Sun Titan that it puts permanents with a cmc 3 or less from your graveyard to the battlefield, but with big differences on how it does it: this ability is a landfall trigger and you only get the cards once Trove Warden dies. Trove Warden is an excellent new source of graveyard recursion and card advantage. There are two other new cards coming with 'Land's Wrath' so let's go over them real quick: Hardened Scales is a great way to bolster the +1/+1 counter theme, and ways to play lands from outside of your hand like Radha, Heart of Keld can ensure even more landfall triggers. If you're looking for upgrades to make Obuun even stronger, I suggest adding ways to generate additional combat steps, like Waves of Aggression, which let you animate an additional land with Obuun and swing for even more damage. The idea is to load up Obuun with a bunch of +1/+1 counters by triggering its landfall ability as many times as possible, which in turn makes the land that Obuun animates that much bigger, and then we smash in for huge damage. Obuun fits perfectly with all the cards found in the precon. So we can clearly see the themes of Land Awakening, Landfall, and +1/+1 counters all working together with Obuun. And its second ability, lets you put a +1/+1 counter on target creature whenever a land enters the battlefield under your control. Obuun's first ability animates a land you control at the beginning of combat until end of turn, with its power and toughness being equal to Obuun's power. Land's Wrath has its three main themes enhanced by its brand new commander, Obuun, Mul Daya Ancestor: Cards like Waker of the Wilds, Planar Outburst, and Embodiment of Insight animate our lands into huge beaters to start smashing face with.įinally there's a +1/+1 counter theme, putting counters on your creatures and then rewarding you for having counters.We add counters with cards like Together Forever, Retreat to Kazandu, and Elite Scaleguard, then get rewarded for doing so by drawing cards with Armorcraft Judge, protecting our creatures from removal and drawing more cards with Inspiring Call, and giving our creatures flying with Abzan Falconer.

Then there's an Animate Land theme, animating lands you control into huge Elemental beaters to finish your opponents with. and and a bunch of cards that reward you for doing so. Then we have a bunch of cards that reward us for playing lands, exiling permanents with Admonition Angel, creating angry elementals with Omnath, Locus of Rage, and getting back permanents with Emeria Shepherd.

We have a bunch of ways to put additional lands onto the battlefield, such as ramping you with Springbloom Druid, letting you play additional lands with Mina and Denn, Wildborn, or returning lands back to our hand to replay with Living Twister. The first theme is Landfall, putting lands into play to fuel powerful landfall triggers. Land's Wrath is a Naya deck with three main themes that meld together seamlessly into a cohesive whole. Now let's take a look at the precons, starting with 'Land's Wrath': These precons are releasing together with the new set, Zendikar Rising, on September 25th. They are meant to be on-ramps to Commander, with three brand new cards per deck and the rest being reprints, so they're going to be a great entry point for new players to get into the format while still offering some goodies for veteran players. The two new Commander preconstructed decks, 'Land's Wrath' and 'Sneak Attack,' have just been revealed and I'm here to give you the details and also my initial impressions on the new cards.
