The problem I have is that they are enough better than basic lands. I'd say that some of them are better than basics and so is Teetering Peaks, but lands need to provide fixing or be significantly better than basics in order to be worth the slots in the cube in my opinion.
Also, I really do not like Eldrazi Devastator better than crusher, at all. If you don't want to run crusher for whatever reason, go ahead and cut it, but the devastator is simply not an efficient card. The annihilator is what makes Crusher good in the first place.
At 2bb I think that the card would be great but the triple black cost is admittedly awkward
I think the card's a 360 staple. It's not played every time, but it's played often and is always super unfair when it is played.
I think it's certainly good enough, but we'll see I guess. The comparison point is a 3/3 and I think it's going to be significantly better than that on average.
I think that saying that you don't want to play it because white and blue have strong 5 drop options is a little strange. Yes, it's true that both white and blue have strong options at 5, but all of those cards except Mulldrifter are less powerful than Ojutai is.
And yeah, it's MUCH better than venser. I personally really dislike when people defend cards because of their uniqueness when the argument is about card power level. Of course, anyone who's running a cube can cut powerful cards for less powerful cards to make their cube how they want it to be. But we're talking about how good Ojutai is, not how fun it is.
I think most burn players will stay naya. Boros charm is such a key card and you get access to some key cards in the board, including firewalker as a trump in the mirror. The changes to the manabase from before are pretty negligible - you want to play 2 stomping grounds instead of 1. Yeah, you'll fetch one more often but command should be worth that
