Tri-Color Mana Base help requested

Standard Deck Help forum

Posted on July 19, 2015, 2:41 p.m. by kruski

Could you please help me with my mana base? Fairly unique build Green splash white splash blue, in which I don't have a huge need for white or blue on turn one or two.

I started off using the article "Frank Analysis Building Three-Color Manabases in Standard"

Also I do not have UU or WW mana symbols in the main board. I considered mana confluences but ended up waffling, thanks for any feedback everyone

It depends on your budget. If you don't care about budget, I would add in some Windswept Heath and Flooded Strand. The respective Temples would also do nice here if you don't mind them coming into play tapped. Yavimaya Coast is also nice here.

If your budget is tight, I would go with 3 Evolving Wilds for your fetchlands and use 2-3 gainlands of the respective colors for your deck. You can still run Yavimaya Coast here if your budget permits.

Ultimately, you will have to proportionate your lands with your mana needs, and test the deck and tweek accordingly to your tastes.

I have playsets of heath and strand, so its not budget limited, I was trying to leave some basics to grab with font.

If you can fit it in the build you can run Nissa's Pilgrimage. It'll let you get basics though I don't know if you don't want to waste the turns.
