Mono Green Landfall wants to ramp into Mossborn Hydra and Mightform Harmonizer while flooding the board with cheap permanents like Llanowar Elves and Sazh's Chocobo. Seam Rip exiles their Llanowar Elves, Sazh's Chocobo, Keen-Eyed Curator, or any other nonland permanent with mana value 2 or less before they snowball. It can't hit Icetill Explorer, Mossborn Hydra, or Mightform Harmonizer, since those cost more. Requisition Raid's artifact/enchantment destroy modes handle Earthbender Ascension, Sapling Nursery, and Meltstrider's Resolve. The Treefolk tokens Sapling Nursery makes are creatures, not artifacts or enchantments, so Raid can't destroy them. The +1/+1 counter mode can also help push through combat against their big creatures. Chandra, Spark Hunter's 3/2 Vehicle tokens are outclassed by their big green creatures, and Carrot Cake's lifegain is too slow against their proactive ramp plan.
Dimir Midrange relies heavily on Enduring Curiosity for recurring card draw and Floodpits Drowner tempo plays; Rest in Peace shuts off Enduring Curiosity's return-from-graveyard trigger entirely and strips value from their graveyard-based cards. Seam Rip picks off Floodpits Drowner or Spyglass Siren before they generate value. Chandra, Spark Hunter does make her own 3/2 Vehicle with her 0 ability, but she is the cheapest four-mana card to give up while we lean into the Rest in Peace plan. Keep the full token-go-wide core so we can pressure Kaito and stretch their one-for-one removal across multiple threats.
BRG grinds with Lively Dirge reanimation and sacrifice synergies from The Sackville-Bagginses and Umbral Collar Zealot. Crystal Barricade gives us a sturdy 0/4 blocker and gives us hexproof, which stops their targeted drain from The Sackville-Bagginses and Biotech Specialist, plus Smaug's attack trigger aimed at us. It also prevents noncombat damage to our other creatures, which blanks Wolverine's fight and Smaug's trigger against our team. Requisition Raid's artifact destruction can hit Biotech Specialist's Lander tokens, Gene Pollinator, and their Treasure and Clue tokens, and its enchantment mode answers Obsessive Pursuit or The Misty Mountains Cold. The +1/+1 counter mode helps our tokens survive combat against bigger green/black bodies. We cut Chandra, Spark Hunter and Carrot Cake to make room, since Carrot Cake's incremental lifegain is too slow against their sacrifice value engine.
