I was posting about how well this would work with mana filters like bog initiate.....then i saw the tap clause. Nm, ill take my bog boy home.
I mean it still works pretty well with filter lands a la Cascade Bluffs. Make 3, pay one into the filter land for 6, two lands 8 mana. Seems deece. Lol
[quote from="AnImAr_ »" url="/forums/magic-fundamentals/the-rumor-mill/815865-the-command-zone-preview-nyxbloom-ancient-the?comment=7"]Basalt Monolith and Grim Monolith go infinite with this since it makes them produce 9 colorless, 3 (or 4) of which can be used immediately to untap them.
I mean, that's already true with Mana Reflection; produce 6, spend 3-4 for untap.
Nothing special. Mana Reflection is the only other existing mana multiplier that isn't a triggered or activated ability. With Sasaya's Essence, Nyxbloom Ancient, and 4 Forests, each Forest would tap for 3 and then Sasaya's Essence would trigger and produce 3 more. As opposed to without Nyxbloom, each Forest taps for 1 and then Sasaya's Essence triggers and produces 3 more.
Now, if you have Mana Reflection and Nyxbloom... each permanent tapped for mana produces 6 times as much as it should.

There's better 7 drops for Mono Green EDH particularly Avenger of Zendikar which curves nicely into Craterhoof Behemoth to help close out games. Late game you'd want more value out of your creatures than mana unless you deliberately plan on winning with Helix Pinnacle. If anything Nyxbloom Ancient lends itself more to spot removal while relying too much on asymmetrical abilities to properly function.
Seedborn Muse is the obvious choice since you can potentially tap your lands for triple the amount during your opponents' turns If you're lucky. If Nyxbloom Ancient was a 5 drop it'd arguably be on par with Paradox Engine but as it is, it's not as strong as everyone is making it out to be. I can definitely see this being a busted card in multi-color EDH decks but as for Mono Green deck space is tight enough as it is.

Nissa only makes Forests tap for 4 with this out. Nissa’s static is a triggered ability. So the forest makes 3 off of this guy then Nissa adds one. Not that that’s any better! There’s also Purphoros’ Intervention in terms of something to sink all this mana into.

You can get closer if you run Bramble Sovereign to copy it and Temur Sabertooth to put it into your hand and do it again!

Nissa also adds 3 with this out.

It's in Gutterstorm's post which you quoted..
