Upgrading budget manabase —Nov. 18, 2016

I am looking for suggestions for some upgraded lands so that I am not running as many basics. If you have anything that fits well with izzet/draw/burn/protection that's a budget piece please advise. Thanks!

Young Pyromancer helps with some more board presence/ token generation

Kuhnife thought about Pyromancer instead of Talrand. My only vice is that the 2/2 flyers talrand produces can pose as solid attackers with evasion if there's enough of them. Pyro's 1/1's are just blockers, which is underwhelming since I need win-cons. It is nice as a 2-drop slot tho. Thanks for the suggestion and +1!

So, this looks like a decent deck, but Melek is about copying spells and playing spells. You need Galvanoth, Djinn Illuminatus, Pyromancer's Goggles, Jace's Sanctum, there is the Mana Geyser + Reiterate infinite combo if your opponent has at least some amount of tapped lands. You also need more x cost burn spells like Fall of the Titans which can wipe the floor with 2 opponents at once and stuff like that. There is also Isochron Scepter for copying spells and Sphinx-Bone Wand if this is not a very competitive deck.

The_Grape I am really liking the look of Galvanoth and the Geyser combo. Also, I have been thinking of putting Goggles in the deck at some point for more copying. Will playtest some of this and see how it goes. Thanks!
