Cheap mana rocks
Commander Deck Help forum

Hey guys I realized several of my decks could use more mana acceleration. Probably will buy Gilded Lotuses for all my decks at some point but for now, what are some <$2 mana rocks to spice up my decks?

Raging_Squiggle made me laugh harder than it should.
Also Cultivator's Caravan is a great card.

As legendofa said: "What kind of decks are you looking at?" ...
in decks containing green...less rocks that can get blown up are better... and there's so many good green ramp spells...
for NON-Green decks...lots of good rocks mentioned above... a few others;
Thought Vessel from last years commander precons...
Prismatic Geoscope from one of this years precons...
and not rocks but colorless ramp, sometimes better depending on the deck are;
and Solemn Simulacrum is good in most decks, though a little above the $2.00 mark.

Check out the talismans and signets. Fellowar and mind stone as other 2 CMC. Sphere of the Suns. Jeweled Amulet is underrated

In monocolor decks I always seem to use the diamonds Sky Diamond, Marble Diamond etc. Also Coldsteel Heart is just as good and it comes from a snow source and you can choose the color

So, Jeweled Amulet basically carries over 1 mana to the next turn? I can see how that could be useful.
I could also see how it interacts with effects like Proliferate and cards like Doubling Season.

Yup! You can use it turn 1, which makes it in a unique category of rocks, even if you cant use it every turn.

What kind of decks are you looking at? The Ravnica Signets are rarely a bad choice for multicolor, and Darksteel Ingot is solid.
