There is a serious issue with this game when the mana base alone costs around $200.

If you are willing to move this deck to legacy, I'd suggest Raid Bombardment (Rise of Eldrazi). I ran a similar deck for a while and it worked wonders.
Add in Assault Strobe. That way you can hit for fourteen and up without much difficulty.
Add in a Chandra Ablaze and protect her with burn spells. Then...Profit.
Nevermind, Upon further review, Nest invader and quicksilver amulet proved to be the best two creature and mana accelerators.
I agree. I honestly figured it was an inexpensive (money wise and mana wise) mana accelerator, on it's own. You're right though. Is there a better (cheaper) mana accelerator out there?
You're right. I was playing a buddy and I put in some Marauders and they worked like a charm. He plays a soldier tribal but he couldn't do much to a flier that was getting +4/+4 a turn. Thanks for the tip.
