Deck discussion for The Iona EDH

With no ramp it's going to be turn nine before you get her out, and you have no way to protect her so unless you happen to pick a color that locks everyone out she's going to cost you 11 the next cast, then 13, etc.

- Get at least a little ramp in there. Pearl Medallion would be a great start, as would Thran Dynamo and Worn Powerstone. Extraplanar lens will double your land's mana output, and if you switch to Snow-covered Plains odds are nobody else will leech off it. Caged Sun is going to also double your land's mana output as well as function as an anthem. Land Tax is functionally ramp/draw hybrid as well, as is Endless Horizons and Gift of Estates.

- Get some card draw. You're going to empty your hand and be stuck top-decking. Mind's Eye would be a start, and Skullclamp would work great with expendible stuff like Azorius Arrester, Doomed Traveler, Emeria tokens, Hero of Bladehold tokens, etc.

- Mono-white decks love Mass Calicify and Crackdown.

- All those white mana symbols would love Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx. Thespian's Stage is really never going to hurt you in a mono deck, and if someone drops a Maze of Ith or Dark Depths then you get one, too.
