The deck is going to rely on some incredibly powerful lands that build armies and buff them up over the course of the game. This is part of why I am thinking Derevi, because the Creature Tokens synergize with him, effectively higher upside.
Starfield Forge really stands out with Clue Lands

The order contains 7 Instant Speed Board Wipes including 3 that destroy creatures and 2 highly selective wipes.
Like I am making sure the game goes at my needed speed, trying to exactly match the mentality of the Value Vintage deck.
I am considering Terminus and Devastation Tide as well

Interesting thing to learn. Moorland Haunt here is the only land that can repeatedly make Fliers. All the others BECOME fliers or sacrifice to make one or more fliers.

So the plan right now is to run Bant as Blue offers access to the two "Second Sunrise" cards that both give an added Beginning Phase aka Untap Step
I am using Adagia and Yena both of which can make token copies of my enchantments
So something like 8-12 land untappers or something? Should be plenty

Alright so a 96 card order approximately has been put in for my Bant Reclamation deck including both Estrid and Derevi. I kinda assume Derevi is going to helm the deck, but both seem pretty good
The list is a proto-type more than an actual deck, but when the 20 something packages get in its a start

I am still thinking about this deck and how it can be accomplished. Lands are hard dude....
So I might try to port a Wilderness Reclamation style deck into commander. Turns out there aren't many cards that will let me untap a bunch of lands but I think I have ideas.

These MDFC dual color tapped lands seem pretty strong which makes it feel kinda bad to run them. Like damn, we really used to run guild gates back in the day now this?

From a gameplay perspective I think Tangled Florahedron is one of the coolest MDFCs. Like on turn 2 you either have a land or if you already have a land you can ramp. BUT if you don't have a third land in hand it asks the question of if you should retain it in hand in order to make a third land drop

You should play more 8 player games :)
mtg personality test but the only question is "there are 8 people who want to play, how do you accommodate this?"

Alright I might've just been very frustrated with one of the V Bloods in V Rising cuz actually it turns out reading a guide did help me figure out how I was messing up.

So I just learned that people use the term "Side" in gay culture for preferring non-penetrative sex and I won't lie... this is likely to expand my lexicon in general. Like there is several feet of human outside a single hole and a single rod and a lot of it provides good reason to be sexual.

Of all the cards from 2025 I think Adagia is the one I WANT to like the most. Like its the land of Story and Myth and Legend where the people are inventive. They build machines but also traditions and that plays out in game.
Adagia is slow, but she breathes life into her people through togetherness

Examining my feelings on these again and you know what? This doesn't feel like crewing a spaceship, which is all about having specialists in place operating it. But it does feel like BUILDING a spaceship.

This year ended with me buying a bunch of graphical tees because I want people to know I am Bisexual. Folks tend to view me as a non-sexual object and im tired of that.
The next year is going to be about trying to accomplish more personal authorship over my own life..
