{"ops":[{"insert":"Hi Beltsezar, the deck looks great so far! I'll still try to give some input which might help it.\n\nRegarding the mana base, I believe you can get away running a bit less tapped lands, given you run only two colors, you have some landramp for fixing and your spells do not require a lot of specific colors. I am not the best at fine-tuning mana bases, but I have noticed one can get away with a lot more basics than I thought. I think there are also some cheap filter lands with enter untapped and tap for two colors.\n\nAbout the general optimization, its hard for me to say what to cut. I think one thing that may help is to decide what strategies to focus on to lean harder into those. For example, the ramp package includes mana dorks, mana rocks and land ramp. If you would focus on land ramp, Murkfiend Liege would be an easy cut, as he seems to have little synergies already. Instead, you could further lean into land ramp and landfall. If you however focus on mana dorks, that synergizes very well with the go wide strategy of the deck, improving Murkfiend, Shamanic Revelations, etc, then you could think about more synergies with untapping your dorks. Either way, I would not run arcane signet.\n\nI see similar things in other regards, as progenitor mimic and Helm of the host are great for go big strategies, whereas cards like Gala greeters are better to go for a wide board.\n\nI do not understand Deepglow Skate in the deck.\n\nTo give you some more specific idea what to cut and what to include, let me know what strategy you would like to focus on.\n\n"}]}
