Hi im building an omnath locust of rage token/landfall deck. After looking through different builds for karametra most seem to also follow the same route of abusing landfall triggers and such. I dont want two landfall decks, and since both decks are green they would have plenty of similar cards/strategies (avenger of zendikar, amulet of vigor, genesis wave etc). so I was wondering there are other ways of building a strong karametra deck? Maybe elf tribal? I'm not familar with elf tribal especially with white and green.
My plan B would be to turn karametra into sigarda to avoid having similar decks.
If people are sick of reading about stuff just stop taking part. You have 100% control over what you read. Simic Ascendancy isn't going to get banned just because you didn't tell someone to shut up on the internet.
You can check out the Karametra primer which runs a lot of indestructible creatures and global hexproof effects in order to create an impregnable board. This is supplemented by a large number of wraths to capitalize on that.
Initially I had a similiar build, as I think it's a really cool idea, but I found there is a number of commonly played spells such as Cyclonic Rift or Terminus that really ruin your day and so it wasn't really viable in my meta.
That's why my list became more of a creature toolbox deck. Nearly half the deck are creatures to capitalize on Karametras ability. There also is a very versatile land toolbox and a sizeable recursion package. So far it's a really fun deck and can compete very well in a meta of strong value decks (fast aggro and combo can pose a bit of a problem). Check out the link in my sig if you are interested
I would have assumed that Karametra, God of Harvests would have been a fairly typical ramp > fatties deck. Presumably you dont want to alter the deck too much but you could consider some of the other G/W options available. Token decks are pretty achievable in GW with Trostani, Tolsimir and new Sigarda all being relatively budget friendly.
Alternatively, change Omnath. R/G has some really cool commanders and if you like the way Karametra plays then why change it?

EDH BRGKresh the BloodbraidedBRG, A box of lands and ideas.
Modern: RG Titanshift. A deck made of cards too stupid for EDH.
Retired: Lots. More than I feel you should suffer through or I should type out.
I'll also warn that people seem to consider you threatening just for ramping, because they don't know what you're ramping to. Everyone assumes its a Genesis Wave for 20+ or Gelatinous Genesis, so I've been hated out even before I nuked all the lands just because people don't trust a deck that "just ramps"

You could run Wirewood Symbiote as a way to bounce elves, so that you can recast them for more Karametra triggers. As for elves, you could run Elvish Visionary, Reclamation Sage, Wood Elves, Farhaven Elf, and Elvish Harbinger as other good things to bounce with Wirewood Symbiote.
If you like the Symbiote plan enough, you could also add Cloudstone Curio.
