Omnath, Locus of ZendikarWUBRG
Legendary Creature - Elemental
Landfall - Whenever a land enters the battlefield under your control, choose one:
- You gain 3 life.
- Draw a card.
- Target player discards a card.
- Deal 3 damage to any target.
- Return target permanent from your graveyard to your hand.
5/5
What? No four-colored Omnath to ease us into the end-game?

Well...
Seems a little out of character for Omnath. Omnath seems like something that is defined as a being that grows as it gets connected to more mana. The growth happens through its personal P/T or P/T of any Elemental or the creation of more Elementals with a larger P/T, and the mana connection originally was from your mana pool and then moved on to landfall - with lands obviously being the sources of mana not that much of a jump.
The proposed card is just a five-colored landfall card that doesn't care about the core identity of Omnath and only seems to vaguely recall that two of the incarnations of the character had landfall without considering why landfall is a natural extention of the mechanics the original incarnation had and even more so entirely forgetting the aspect of proliferation that all incarnations have in common.
Kind of mediocre for a generic landfall legendary creature, less than that for an Omnath.
I'd propose more something like
Omnath, Locus of Zendikar1WUBRG
Legendary Creature - Elemental
Whenever a land enters the battlefield, create a 5/5 Elemental creature token. If that land was a Plains, Elementals you control gain first strike until end of turn. If that land was a Island, Elementals you control gain flying until end of turn. If that land was a Swamp, Elementals you control gain menace until end of turn. If that land was a Mountain, Elementals you control gain trample until end of turn. If that land was a Forest, Elementals you control gain deathtouch until end of turn.
6/6
Couldn't decide where to put haste. A lot of keywords make sense.

You're a genius. I was trying to find a home for the word Locus but it just did not work out. Easy fix lol

Zendikar Incarnate also makes a nice template:
Omnath, Locus of Zendikar WUBRG
Legendary Creature - Elemental
~ gets +1/+1 for each land you control.
*your ability*
0/0
etc.
Finally a good white villain quote: "So, do I ever re-evaluate my life choices? Never, because I know what I'm doing is a righteous cause."
