Awakened Amalgam

Artifact Creature — Golem4 generic mana

The math here punishes the thing every deck wants to do: run efficient, redundant manabases. A Golem whose body scales with differently named lands is a deliberate inversion of the usual incentive, where a deck plays four copies of two or three lands and calls the manabase solved. To get this creature to a respectable size you have to spread across distinct land names, which means leaning on dual lands, fetch targets, utility lands, and basics that share no name, exactly the kind of fragmented manabase a streamlined aggro or combo deck avoids. The design lives entirely in that friction: the payoff sits with greedy, color-hungry decks that were already paying the consistency tax this card rewards. In a four- or five-color shell it can be a sizable beater for its cost; in a focused two-color deck it is a vanilla creature that forgot to print its numbers. The counting key is naming, not type or color, so a fistful of identical basics does nothing for it while a pile of one-ofs makes it grow. It rewards the deckbuilder who was already there for other reasons rather than asking anyone to bend a list around it, which keeps it a niche curiosity rather than a build-around: a creature that measures how diverse your lands happen to be and reports the number back as a stat line.
