You can be cute and do Ritual type stuff with Baldur's Gate, you can pump a dude with Basilisk Gate, and If you're running Ghyrson Starn, Kelermorph you can do some sheniaghans with Crackling Perimeter also works with similar commanders like torbran

Sorry to be the be area of bad news, but unfortunately the land side of double side cards is not the one that counts toward card type so Bala Ged Sanctuary Flip is technically an instant card, not a land card. Speaking of lands, I know you’re building on a budget, but you can do better than thrive lands and life lands. A great budget way to do this would be going with gates now that cards like Baldur's Gate and Gond Gate make gates much better and the rest of the new gates are pretty much thrive lands but with gate synergies. Splurge on Maze's End and you even have an alternate wincon. Throw in Crackling Perimeter and Guild Summit and you’ll really be rolling. Also, a few basic lands are a good idea just in case someone uses Path to Exile or a similar effect on you it’s not wasted.
I totally get building on a budget, but there are ways to do so and retain playability.

It looks like the right conclusion has been reached, but I want to make sure it's spelled out:
With Hostility and Torbran, Thane of Red Fell on the battlefield, Crackling Perimeter will deal 3 damage, because only Torbran's replacement effect is applicable (Hostility specifically looks for spell damage).
That said, it's worth examining Gut Shot instead. The targetted player will get to choose whether to apply Hostility or Torbran per the quoted rule 616.1. If they choose Hostility, you'll get one 3/1. If they choose Torbran, then they'll get to pick again, with Hostility being the only available choice, so you'll get three 3/1s.
616.1e Once the chosen effect has been applied, this process is repeated (taking into account only replacement or prevention effects that would now be applicable) until there are no more left to apply.
It's also worth noting that Torbran has a replacement effect, but Hostility has a prevention effect. This doesn't change this particular outcome, as the referenced rules do apply to both replacement and prevention effects, but it the spell were instead Skullcrack you'd deal 5 damage to the targeted player, and Hostility's ability couldn't be applied for the rest of the turn.

Ok, I see I messed up because I didn't even read Crackling Perimeter and was thinking Lightning Boltish spells. Its effect isn't a spell so Hostility does nothing. Only Torban will replace the damage.
Another big misread by me was that your opponent would obviously be the affected player and get to decide. But in the situation at hand, there's nothing to decide

If you tap a gate for the ability of Crackling Perimeter, then your opponent is the affected player and gets to chose which replacement effects to apply in which order.
If Torbran, Thane of Red Fell's ability is applied first, then Hostility's ability is still eligible to apply to the same source of damage (so functionally, you'd get to apply both). So except under very specific circumstances, your opponent is likely to choose Hostility's replacement effect first, so that Torbran's doesn't apply afterwards as no damage is being dealt.

This is a timing question... Hostility and Torbran, Thane of Red Fell are on the battlefield, and I cast Crackling Perimeter... will Torbran's +2 be seen by Hostility, creating three 3/1 Elementals per opponent, or just one? I'm guessing they are both replacement effects, so I get one, but not both...? Or do I get both...? I'm crossing my fingers for both..... ;)

Thanks. I thought it was a cool wincon back when it was first printed in Dragon's Maze. At the time, it was barely possible to play the deck in standard, until Theros dropped, then it was slightly playable. But I was taking a break from magic at that time.
I removed the Chromatic Lantern s to add another Riot Control , a Primeval Titan , and a Kiora, the Crashing Wave . Primeval Titan gets out so many lands and is a good blocker with Trample. Kiora, the Crashing Wave can block damage from permanents, draw you a card while letting you plan another land, or gets you 9/9 tokens every turn! I think she'll help a lot.
I removed one Azusa, Lost but Seeking to add Crucible of Worlds . You're right about it helping with land destruction. I'm going to work on the sideboard next.
I added Wear / Tear for some artifact/enchantment answers. Maybe Pull from Eternity would be good in case my opponent is exiling my stuff? The sideboard has a few alternent wincons: Crackling Perimeter , Liliana's Caress , and Underworld Dreams provide ways of dealing damage to my opponents. Melira, Sylvok Outcast protects against infect decks, and combos with Phyrexian Unlife to help me stall out longer in case they're killing me too quickly. I even thought about Platinum Angel but 7 is a high cmc. Maybe it would be worth it anyway?
