EPTI don't think 6 landers are really ever keepable, although if the 7th card is a real bomb that wins the game on its own, and you know your opponent can't answer it, then maybe. I also mull 80-90% of 5-landers. 5 lands, 1 Goblin Shortcutter, and Chandra would also be an easy mull.

Against a deck with cheap creatures, you're unlikely to be able to defend Chandra on turn 4, and against a slower deck you will get flooded out and run over.

I said that hand isn't an auto-mull as some of the others. | ||

The only card in M14 that I might consider keeping with 6 lands is Kalonian Hydra, but only if I had seen my opponent's entire deck and knew it had zero removal spells. Keeping 6 landers is extremely bad. | ||

In one game yesterday I used her -7 ability and cast three lava axes haha. That was after dealing several points of damage using the +1 ability, of course. | ||

I'd keep that almost every time. We're not talking about that, though. | ||

Edit: Should clarify that I am not disagreeing with you, I am saying that the hand warrants some thought before shipping it. | ||

I said if it's 6 lands with a card that can win the game on its own, without casting any other spells for the entire game, then it might be a keep. Otherwise it is an auto mull. Chandra is obviously not in the category of Kalonian Hydra/Pack Rat, so it's an auto mull. There's no point considering it. | ||

Let's say my opponent enchants their mountain with Awaken the Ancient. On my turn I cast Clone and choose the mountain creature as the target. Does this mean I now have, specifically, a mountain, with no other characteristics (it is not even a creature)? | ||

It copies the card, not the enchantment. It would just be a 3U basic mountain. | ||

The reason why I found it so confusing is because, even though I knew clone won't copy the enchantment, what ultimately happens is affected by the enchantment in this case. Any enchantment or effect which makes a non-creature permanent a creature means that permanent can now be mimicked by clone, even though clone will lose his creature status as he enters the battlefield (unless that effect also influences your cloned version of the permanent for some reason, keeping it a creature). Pretty crazy. | ||

Even looking at the solution my head hurt trying to understand it at each step. I feel dumb.  | ||

I might take out one or two champion of the Parish's and add in some more spells, maybe take out one of the banisher priests and add another Precinct Captain. The sideboard I am not sure of yet, still thinking of that one.I am sure I will take out some of the War Priests. | ||

However, if I announce I'm attacking, and my opponent says ok, and then I swing with both creatures, of course they can choose to burn/remove the gladerider before declaring blockers. If they do it this way, will the second sliver lose flying, even though he had it when I declared attackers, meaning a crawler can now block it? | ||

Yes, they can kill it during declare attackers and the other sliver will lose flying before the declare blockers step. | ||
