Of course! I was so caught up in the Green spell being
Skyshroud Claim that I didn't even think about it.
I've already revised my list, but I just can't decide on artifact or land. If I stick to the criteria, I can't include the artifacts I want to so I went with Solemn Sim. Is
Mana Crypt too obscure for a product like this?
Same with Land: I would have loved to add some of the cards from FTV Lands or about 20 from the reserved list. After that it's either
Wasteland or
Cabal Coffers, neither of which really appealed.
DT is also a good call. I'm personally not a fan of open-ended tutors in Commander but I can see the appeal.

Deadeye NavigatorTooth and Nail Command Tower was in Arsenal as a foil and in every single commander deck since. Is that not too "common" for a FTV printing?
Your Auto-includes are very high on a lot of people's "Groan" lists. You sure you don't want to put Craterhoof in there?
Actually, each colour and card type has issues for the most iconic.
White is either removal or one of the big legends. Pretty much everything else is obscure or
Mother of Runes.
Blue has a huge amount of options, but the top contender is probably Rift which is pretty controversial.
Black: I want another
Living Death, thought seriously about
Grave Pact, went with
Mikaeus and added
Victimize because I love it. Would probably change that to
Necromancy & DT now.
Damnation?
Red: What's Iconic in Red? Goblins? Dragons? Lightning Bolt? I went with what I liked but it's not everyone's cup of tea.
Green:
Skyshroud Claim &
Doubling Season.
Lurking predators was a fill in at enchantment.
Colourless: Probably one of the legendary Eldrazi, maybe
All is Dust if White doesn't provide the boardwipe.
Gold: I went with Boom Tube, one of the original fatties, but I'd audible to one of the Elder Dragons now. Not Bolas.
Chromium would be cool.
Artifact: Probably should be
Sol Ring but, excluding that, it's about 15 other artifacts and not everyone else is as in love with
Cloudstone Curio as I am.
Ensnaring Bridge would be cool, but maybe not iconic.
Land: I really want it to be
Gaea's Cradle or
Serra's Sanctum but maybe
Wasteland or Coffers would fit here. Or
Command Tower. (*coughs* boring *coughs*)
Enchantment :
Pernicous Deed.
Planeswalker : I wanted flip-Jace but that would be unfeasable logistically, so I went with one I find most effective:
Dack Fayden There's none that really stand out to me apart from him. I have a PW deck and he's almost the only 'walker I run outside that deck in all the decks I play (Swamp Liliana in Mono-B, but she's unlikely to make the cut here.)
Here's my edited cut:
