General Principles


The general idea of the deck is to abuse Life from the Loam and cards that care about lands, like Seismic Assault, Knight of the Reliquary, Countryside Crusher, Worm Harvest.

The Punishing Grove combo is usually found in there too, just because you can get your grove back easily even if they destroy it. You can destroy their lands with Ghost Quarter + Loam. Dark Confidant is good because you usually have a lot of lands, thus you take less damage from him, and even if you flip a card your curve is low. You also run a lot of utility lands, because you can easily get them back from a dredged loam.

The strength of the deck is its resilience, you have a lot of engines that you can easily recur, so you can easily grind your opponent out. Or, you can just straight up win with Tarmogoyf beatdown.

A common option is splashing white for Knight of the Reliquary, Path to Exile and Horizon Canopy, but this creates an awkward mana base and makes running assault difficult. Knight is great with all the lands in the graveyard though, and greatly helps with assembling a toolbox of lands.
