Budget rocks in grixis

Commander Deck Help forum

Posted on July 23, 2015, 5:42 p.m. by TheGrayMerchant

I am currently building a Mishra, Artificer Prodigy EDH deck and I am limited by budget. I would like to get to 3-5 mana quickly and consistently without killing my wallet or majorly changing the deck (just upgrades). Any suggestions?

Deck:

Mishra, Budget Prodigy Playtest

Commander / EDH* TheGrayMerchant

This is a good place to start; http://www.metamox.com/tag/mana-rocks/

Also this; List of EDH Ramp Cards

And this; http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Search/Default.aspx?action=advanced&text=+[sacrifice]+[add]+[mana]+[pool]&color=+![W]+![G]&type=+[%22Creature%22]&format=+[%22Commander%22]

Hope this helps!

Sol Ring

Dimir Signet

Rakdos Signet

Izzet Signet

are the only ones under 3 mana that are budget I can think of off the top of my head. At 3 you have Chromatic Lantern, Darksteel Ingot, and Manalith along with Obelisk of Grixis

Also at 2 you have the mana Myr, just thought of that after I posted. They have the downside of being dorks instead of rocks.

Silver Myr

Iron Myr

Leaden Myr

Plague Myr

Honestly the signets (as Gidgetimer mentioned) are probably your best bet. They are very good and definitely worth inclusion.

At 3 mana, Commander's Sphere is also an option.

Just how cheap are we talking? Mana Vault and Thran Dynamo (especially with reprint) are only $6 or so.

Otherwise, Signets are very good regardless. Dark Ritual is always an option if you're looking to set something off fast.
