Giving Narset, Enlightened Master haste
Commander Deck Help forum

I am tweaking my Narset, Enlightened Master deck right now and I realized how much better she would be if she had haste. So I am wondering if it is worth putting in a section of the deck devoted to giving her haste, and if yes then suggestions for cards to put in.
p.s. the deck is built around the card Eye of the Storm and tries to combo off with instant and sorceries.
I would start here:
http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Search/Default.aspx?action=advanced&text=+[Creature]+[gains]+[haste]&color=+![G]+![B]
This is a search for "creature gains haste" in the text box excluding black and green spells.
Marchesa's Smuggler and Slayers' Stronghold are two fun ones that I saw when looking through them.

Some more or less obvious options that haven't been mentioned yet: Racecourse Fury , Ring of Valkas (if you don't care about creatures other than Narset, it's better than Swiftfoot Boots since she already has hexproof), Dragon Breath , Lightning Mauler , Fervor , Anger . (I personally prefer my haste sources to not cost additional mana.)

Narset has a rep so having her sit around for a full go-around the table seems like you're asking to have her taken out by removal, so, yeah, haste sounds like a good strategy.
As for haste enablers... Hall of the Bandit Lord is probably the best but most $$. Hanweir Battlements and Flamekin Village are cheaper options but aren't quite as good. Using a land slot for granting haste saves some room in the deck and makes it less likely that your enabler gets taken out as well.
Mass Hysteria is a low CMC option but not sure how you feel about sharing the hasty love. The usual inclusions of Lightning Greaves and Swiftfoot Boots should probably already be part of your 99.
