Overview:

This Naya (RGW) lands-matter deck leverages Yuma's land-sacrifice synergy to generate card advantage and 4/2 Plant Warrior tokens, supported by Desert recursion and landfall triggers. The strategy focuses on incremental value through land cycling, token generation, and combat overruns rather than infinite combos. While moderately resilient with graveyard recursion and redundancy in land effects, its slower setup and reliance on board presence make it vulnerable to stax and fast combo decks.

Primer:

Core Strategy:
Deploy Yuma by turns 4–6 using land-graveyard cost reduction, then sacrifice lands for card draw while generating Plant tokens from Deserts. Key phases:

1. Land Dumping: Use Crop Rotation, Harrow, and Scapeshift to fill the graveyard with lands/Deserts.
2. Value Engine: Recur lands via Ramunap Excavator, Ancient Greenwarden, and Life from the Loam to fuel Yuma's draw and token generation.
3. Win Conditions: Overwhelm with token swarms (Field of the Dead, Scute Swarm), landfall payoffs (Rampaging Baloths), or direct damage via Seismic Assault/Valakut Exploration.

Mulligan Priorities:

• 3+ lands with at least 1 fetch (e.g., Evolving Wilds)
• Early enablers like Elvish Reclaimer or Groundskeeper
• Avoid hands without land recursion or sacrifice outlets

Key Tips

• Time Yuma casts post-wheel effects to refill after land sacrifices.
• Prioritize Desert recursion with Hazezon, Shaper of Sand and Dune Chanter.
• Use Constant Mists + Zuran Orb as a political/protection tool.

Avoid Traps

• Overcommitting lands to graveyard before Yuma protection.
• Holding back Deserts unnecessarily—their death triggers are critical.

Weaknesses:

Critical:

• Graveyard hate (Rest in Peace) shuts down cost reduction and recursion.
• No infinite combos; struggles to close against lifegain/control.

Moderate:

• Slow vs. fast combo (needs T6+ to threaten).
• Limited board wipe recovery outside Perpetual Timepiece.

Minor:

• Mana base handles Blood Moon effects with basic fetching.

Most Important Cards:

• Scapeshift
• Ancient Greenwarden
• Titania, Protector of Argoth
• Ramunap Excavator
• Life from the Loam
• Field of the Dead
• Hazezon, Shaper of Sand
• Realms Uncharted
• Elvish Reclaimer
• Dune Chanter

Attribute Ratings:

Speed: 6/10

• Goldfish win ~T8 via token swarm/landfall.
• No T3-4 combos; requires land setup.

Resilience: 6/10

• Redundant land recursion (4+ enablers).
• Folds to graveyard exile but recovers from single wipes.

Consistency: 7/10

• 8+ land tutors and 3 wheel effects.
• Multiple Desert/landfall payoffs.

Interaction: 4/10

• Spot removal (Swords, Beast Within) but minimal counters.
• Relies on Constant Mists for combat protection.

Rating Justification:

Matches Optimized Casual (5.0) benchmarks with T8-10 combat wins but lacks:

• 5.5's T7-9 combo potential
• 6.0's stax resistance
  Excels above 4.5 via landfall redundancy and Yuma's card advantage.

Power level: 5.0 - 5.5
