For when two may be enough, but three makes you more comfortable.

Cycle of what I'll call "half-gold multicolor" like Dreadbore or Glimpse the Unthinkable.

"for three land cards" >> "for up to three land cards"; compare Nissa's Renewal

I'll have 3 Cloudposts please, thank you.

8 mana and only 1 card for Marit Lage seems good too.

@kaeufr: Is this a problem? I mean you already can get two of them and a 6/6 trample for six mana. Would you prefer the lands ETB tapped?

@dude1818: Elaborate, please.

Compare and contrast with Primeval Titan whenever possible.

Yeah - "It's almost as good as primeval titan" is indeed the problem with it.

Get a Dark Depths, Thespian's Stage, and I suppose any land that taps for 2 to just pull off that combo right away. Primeval Titan is utterly broken and was a mistake.

Checking Primeval Titan's legality it is not banned in any 60-card formats. This indicates hyperbole concerning "utterly broken".

I am also fine ignoring certain eternal combinations and Dark Depths is on the list of cards that future designs will not be held hostage by.

lands now ETBT

The Titan cycle as a whole was oppressive in Standard, at least until Caw-Blade happened, and Prime Time was the most powerful of the 5. Sam Stoddard has called it a mistake along the lines of Jace TMS, Bitterblossom, and Tarmogoyf. While it's only banned in Commander, the decks it's powered have had other pieces banned that were more deck-specific (why do you think you don't need to worry about Dark Depths in the first place?). If it was printed today, it would certainly be banned.

it's nowhere near Titan level. It's not even near Scapeshift level, and that card is legal everywhere.

Yeah, but SecretInfiltrator tried to draw the comparison to Prime Time, which gets you shot down automatically

It's ok now with ETBT.
