MTG Salvation

Klothys, God of Destiny

I want to make a deck with Klothys that focuses on global damage and mana punishment Another article from EDHREC just recently talked about some Gruul cards, Overabundance and Orcish Lumberjack being two, and I think we can add Torbran, Thane of Red Fell, Sulfuric Vortex, Manabarbs for more damage, while locking down with Winter Orb/Static Orb type spells for further lockdown.

Primal Order, Burning Earth, Neheb, the Eternal.

List updated.

Splendid Reclamation and Crucible of Worlds and Ramunap Excavator.

Would Omnath, Locus of Rage be able to secure a spot in the 99? I presume we'll be running fetchlands.

I was going to suggest Rising Waters but then I relized that this is for the new rg god...

What is the plan for this deck? Currently the list lacks clearly defined win conditions an have some stuff that does nothing (Well of Lost Dreams). I can suggest some stuff that might fit the overall scheme and be synergistic with some stuff already on the list:
- Blasphemous Act and Chain Reaction can win games with Repercussion on board (more damage than Wildfire variants),
- Batterskull and Basilisk Collar will work well with Harsh Mentor variants (nonbo with Ferocidon and Witch Hunt but those equipment can feed Well of Lost Dreams), maybe add Heartless Hidetsugu for more "fun",
- speaking of Harsh Mentor variants, Snake Umbra will draw you a lot of cards with them,
- Mesmeric Orb will mill you as well so some graveyard recursion would help, should be no problem with green, Neheb, Dreadhorde Champion provides card filtering and mana which seems to be enough synergy to include him,
- Zo-Zu the Punisher, Ankh of Mishra etc will help against ramp strategies because they will recover from LD quicker than you (especially with Torbran on board),
- some flavourfull cards: Strip Mine, Wasteland, Aggressive Mining.

I have probably missed a lot of cards so if I will recall some I will post them later.

Well, one card I'd personally recommend is actually Decimate and similar cards that destroy multiple cards since, unless you're going for a pyrrhic victory, you need cards in the graveyard to fuel Klothys. Other than that, you may want to look for cards to help ramp, such as Zhur-Taa Druid.

I forgot about Smokestack. It is flavorful and works well with Wildfire effects but without ways to abuse symmetry of the effect, it might hurt you more than opponents. But there are ways of reliably producing tokens in green and red and even without them grinding one permanent for each opponent for each turn might be good enough.

List updated.

I think the goal can be many folds. While people dislike it, mass LD is one way for an aggressive color like red and white to maintain advantage in game. In a less severe (more more annoying) approach, stax and lockdown adds a rare control element to this deck, thanks to Klothys's ability to continue the pain even under duress.

Snake Umbra gives Klothy card advantage, and all the red damage doublers would turn her AoE into more and more devastating countdown. An enchantress build might work out pretty well with her.
