Overview:

This mono-green deck leverages Lumra, Bellow of the Woods as a land-centric engine, transforming land count into commander power while enabling explosive graveyard-to-battlefield land recursion. The strategy focuses on turbo-ramping lands through self-mill, sacrifice synergies (e.g., Zuran Orb, Crop Rotation), and land-doubling effects (Scapeshift, Burgeoning). Win conditions include overwhelming land-based value, Field of the Dead zombie armies, commander damage via Lumra, and combos like Food Chain + Eternal Witness loops or Staff of Domination + mana dorks. Lumra is the core enabler, vulnerable to removal but protected by recursion tools like Sanctum of Eternity and Command Beacon. "Hidden commanders" include Ashaya, Soul of the Wild (synergizing with creature-based ramp) and Food Chain.

Primer:

Core Strategy Execution:

1. Early Acceleration (Turns 1-3): Deploy fast mana (Lotus Petal, Mox Diamond, Sol Ring, Mana Vault) or land-ramp (Exploration, Burgeoning, Elvish Reclaimer). Mill via Lumra/self-mill enablers.
2. Land Sacrifice & Recursion (Turns 3-5): Sacrifice lands to Zuran Orb, Crop Rotation, or utility lands (Strip Mine, Wasteland) for value. Recur lands with Lumra ETB, Aftermath Analyst, or Petrified Field. Cast Ashaya to turn creatures into lands.
3. Combo/Overwhelm (Turns 4-7):
   • Combat: Swarm with Field of the Dead tokens or commander damage (Lumra + evasion).
   • Combo: Food Chain + exileable creature (e.g., Eternal Witness) for infinite casts/ETBs. Staff of Domination + Gaea's Cradle/Selvala, Heart of the Wilds for infinite mana/draw.
   • Value Lock: Deploy stax (Root Maze, Trinisphere, Collector Ouphe) to stall opponents.

Mulligan Priorities:

• Keep hands with 2+ lands, including a green source.
• Prioritize fast mana, land-ramp (Exploration/Burgeoning), or self-mill (Lumra/Insidious Fungus).
• Include at least one land-sac outlet (Zuran Orb, Crop Rotation) or recursion piece.
• Avoid hands lacking acceleration or with only high-CMC cards.

Key Tips:

• Maximize Landfall: Amulet of Vigor untaps lands entering tapped. Tireless Provisioner generates Treasures/Food. Tiller Engine untaps lands or taps opponents' threats.
• Protect Combos: Use Sylvan Safekeeper, Allosaurus Shepherd, or Cavern of Souls to shield key pieces. Emergence Zone enables flash-speed combos.
• Leverage Graveyard: Mill aggressively for Realms Uncharted/Shifting Woodland targets. Recur artifacts with Buried Ruin.
• Tutor Wisely: Fetch Ashaya, Food Chain, or Field of the Dead with Green Sun's Zenith, Finale of Devastation, or Chord of Calling.

Weaknesses:

Critical

• Graveyard hate (Rest in Peace, Leyline of the Void) cripples land recursion and combo lines.
• Land destruction/stax (Blood Moon, Back to Basics) disrupts the mana base and Ashaya synergy.
• Anti-synergy artifacts (Cursed Totem, Damping Sphere) shut down mana dorks and Staff/Food Chain combos.

Moderate

• Board wipes reset Lumra/Ashaya power and token armies.
• Instant-speed interaction disrupts Food Chain/Staff combos mid-activation.
• Torpor Orb nulls ETB triggers (Lumra, Field of the Dead, Eternal Witness).

Minor

• Hand disruption can remove key combo pieces pre-deployment.
• Flyers evade Lumra's reach if token blockers are scarce.

Most Important Cards:

• Food Chain (Infinite mana/combo engine)
• Ashaya, Soul of the Wild (Synergy with creatures, boosts Lumra)
• Gaea's Cradle (Explosive mana for combos/overruns)
• Scapeshift (Mass land fetch + Field of the Dead triggers)
• Field of the Dead (Primary token win condition)
• Amulet of Vigor (Untaps lands, enabling explosive turns)
• Crop Rotation (Tutor any land, instant-speed synergy)
• Staff of Domination (Combo piece, draw engine)
• Burgeoning (Accelerates land drops)
• Finale of Devastation (Tutor/overrun finisher)

Attribute Ratings:

Speed: 8/10
Capable of T3-4 wins with perfect hands (e.g., Food Chain + dork + recursion), consistently threatens T5-6 victories via land swarms or combos.

Resilience: 7/10
Extensive land recursion, hexproof/shroud sources (Sylvan Safekeeper), and combo redundancy mitigate disruption, but graveyard reliance remains a liability.

Consistency: 9/10
High density of tutors (10+), land-fetch, and card draw (Sylvan Library, The One Ring) ensures reliable access to combo pieces and ramp.

Interaction: 6/10
Efficient land destruction (Strip Mine), artifact/enchantment removal (Boseiju, Song of the Dryads), and stax (Collector Ouphe), but lacks stack interaction beyond Allosaurus Shepherd.

Rating Justification:

The deck operates at cEDH-viable speed (T3-4 potential) with robust tutors and multiple high-impact combos, but its graveyard dependency and vulnerability to specific stax lower resilience below tiered cEDH decks. It excels in high-power metas but falters against dedicated hate.

Power level: 8.0 - 8.5
