Even without Melira and a Saccer that's a pretty cool interaction right there.
Pod out a Child of Alara, blow everything up, Twilight Shepherd comes in, brings everything back And you've got it loaded for a second pop thanks to TS's persist
Edit: Less impressed, it says return to hand
I knew there had to be something I was miss reading /facepalm
What if you would pod it into a Twilight Shepherd....With Melira and a saccer you could just keep sacrificing Child of Alara to "untap" your pod for bigger creatures and bringing everything you podded that turn back into play.....just for giggles (might be better suited as just another combo in edh *shrugs*)
Or a crazy powerful green wizard like snap/bob/mystic
1GTelluric shaman
When Telluric shaman comes into play, you may put target land card from any graveyard to play tapped under your control.
Human wizard 2/1
I think you are right about land fetches being a good vibe for this guy, but I would think Fetching it from the graveyard would be slightly weaker in the majority of cases than the already amble land fetch creatures in green already which mill a land out of the way.
If you have to force a default play condition for Cavern of Souls it should reflect what a reasonable person would do by default, however I would rather see a game rewound to the point of declaration if there is a fuss of which ability it was tapped for. It is the responsibility of both/all players to manage the game state properly.
