I have a question for all you EDH players out there, How many lands to you typically put into an EDH deck?
I know this is question is wholly dependent on what colors the deck is (i.e if its , less lands and more rampant growth effects), but I just wanted to get a general consensus of the count on behalf of all MTGs users.As far as me, I've noticed that I tend to put 35-37 lands in a deck, along with 5+ artifact mana fixers: Signets and Talismans for multicolored decks, Expedition Map, Journeyer's Kite, Darksteel Ingot and Everflowing Chalice in every deck Wayfarer's Bauble for non- decks (since rampant growth is strictly better)Extraplanar Lens and Gauntlet of Power for mono-colored decks. |

I go 38, with the same stuff that you said. Except that Gilded Lotus is way better than any of the other fixing/accel you listed, and should be on the list.

I usually put 40 in most decks. I tend not to factor artifact mana sources into my land count at all because they are so fragile, but I will drop that number if I have enough ramp, down to 35 or so.

35-40 depending on amount of other ramp.

I run 35 in my Teneb deck and I'm content. I don't even use Onslaught or Zendikar fetchlands. Mirari's Wake and lots of means of fetching it out helps in any deck that has

33 land is equivalent to running 20 land in a 60 card deck.
Likewise, 42 land is approximately the same as running 25 land in a 60 card deck. Like most other people said, I usually do 35-39 land, depending on how mana hungry it is, how available artifact ramp is, and the like. Use your better judgment, you can always adjust your amount later if need be.

I don't think that there is a "consensus" on this but if it helps, I use this rule of thumb: -
I hope that helps |
