Tom Bombadil

Legendary Creature — God Bard

· WUBRG

· #63 (19,556 decks)

As long as there are four or more lore counters among Sagas you control, Tom Bombadil has hexproof and indestructible. Whenever the final chapter ability of a Saga you control resolves, reveal cards from the top of your library until you reveal a Saga card. Put that card onto the battlefield and the rest on the bottom of your library in a random order. This ability triggers only once each turn.

About This Manabase

Tom Bombadil is a WUBRG commander with a WUBRG color identity, so any land that produces only those colors is fair game. Our auto-built manabase above starts at the Optimized $100 tier and ranks every pick by how often real EDHREC decks actually run it — so shocks and fetches show up where the budget allows, dropping to scry lands, gain lands, and tap-duals as the cap tightens.

Pick a tier above to reshape the manabase. The Budget ($25) tier mirrors what budget-deck players actually run — mostly basics and the cheapest utility lands; Optimized ($100) shifts to the “default” EDHREC variant with shocks, fast lands, and a couple of fetches when the budget allows; Unlimited uses the expensive-variant data — originals, full fetch suites, and premium duals appear when in identity. Filter out tap-lands for faster decks, or pin yourself to fetchable lands for a fetch-heavy ramp shell.
