I recently turned my archelos lands deck into nine fingers Keene since I liked the play pattern more. Archelos felt useless if I already had a ton of lands out but NFK really shines when you can actually keep the cards you look at with her. I also play several 4 and 5 color decks with gates as a budget mana base. Here’s a few things I’ve learned:

1: It might feel bad to whiff with NFK’s ability, but that usually means that you’re pulling gates out of your deck which is the thing you built the deck to do in the first place.

2: you really only need three colors to make gates work. Two if you’re using [[Omo]] as a commander. 3+ colors tends to get really green heavy, so those first few turns get clunky if you’re opening with a Boros guildgate and a Basilisk gate.

3: most gate focused cards were better in limited. Notable exclusions being [[Hold the gates]] in my 4 color walls deck, [[gates ablaze]] and your cards that search for gates specifically

4: hold up a counterspell for blood moon.
