| Sample Mana Bases by color combination.
|
| I offer a "Normal" and a "Budget" version. For "Budget", I cut any card worth more than around $3 TCG mid, and replace with something else.
|
| Of course these builds are just a suggestion, without any information about your deck. The color balance and basic lands can be adjusted; I give an "Other Ideas" section at the bottom of each page.
|
|
|
| Below are some peculiarities in my mana bases. I will say up front that these are not great for "CEDH"; I'm not trying to show super-fast mana bases here.
|
| • I don't mind if some of my lands come into play tapped. This means I run tri-lands and Triomes. Also, as an experiment, I am currently running a lot of the Zendikar Rising double-faced "Spell lands".
|
| • I don't normally run fetches. (I dislike extra shuffling.)
|
| • I don't care if my ramp costs 4 or more mana. (Some people insist on running only 2 CMC mana ramp, like Signets, Rampant Growth, Farseek, etc.)
|
| • I tend to run Unstable Obelisk, Midnight Clock, and Lockets a lot in my mana bases. (I like to hide card draw / destruction in my mana ramp if possible.)
