This is a really fun card. It works wonders in casual.

I built the softlock deck a long time ago, and my friends got pretty annoyed at it. Not nearly as much so as when I built a Mycosynth Lattice+Hurkyl's Recall+March of the Machines control deck, but still.

I use Living Tsunami and Chisei, Heart of Oceans to keep the island-lock down, and I use Frozen Aether to lock out even newly-played lands.

Oboro, Palace in the Clouds can be bounced as a response to the targeting. Then put it down as your land for the turn.

Would be neat to use one of the many cards (like magical hack) to change the land type partway through. If you change the text of this to say mountain their forest is flooded by mountains. L O L..

possibly useful to create a softlock. you'll need something like Power Conduit then in order to work since you'd want to prevent the second ability to trigger.

I can think of some serpents who would greatly appreciate this card.

The lock also works when you have access to two Ravnica bouncelands like Simic Growth Chamber. Play a Blue

deck just with hybrid cards from Ravnica Block and Eventide (every colour combination including blue works), no Islands, just the corresponding land type (here Forests) and Quicksilver Fountain. This way, your development isn't hindered by the Fountain because you don't care if you play your hybrids with Green

or

. As Mode said, keep counters off your lands with Power Conduit and bouncelands and when the time is right, play your Tsunami (or Boil, if you prefer the Blue
