Since Farseek is gone, how would one go about ramping without using the mana-elves, or any creatures for that matter?

I know of Traveler's Amulet , which is not really ramp, but fetches you land. All the good ramp are creatures

There's not really much at 2 mana. At 3 you have the keyrunes, Chromatic Lantern , Verdant Haven etc.

I guess Mana Bloom can be a 2 drop "ramp" but you have to keep reinvesting in it if you want to keep your mana up. Otherwise you can get to 4 pretty easily with it

While you have to jump through some major hoops with Ordeal of Nylea it is a 2 drop, and Experiment One does get counters quicker than most, even curved perfectly though you probably just jump to 6 lands for Turn 4. Not mentioned at the 3 drop slot Darksteel Ingot .
