The guys over at Limited Resources really put on a good podcast recently. The topic was mana bases in limited. A lot of the discussed lined up with my previous thoughts, but they were good at putting it into words. I highly recommend listening, feel free to skip ahead to the part where they start the analysis.

Key Takeaways:
- Don't splash CC only splash C
- If you splash one card you need 3 sources.
- Play two colors and have an even split to your lands. You just win more. Consistency trumps power.
What's cc vs. c?
ReplyDeleteshorthand. C is generic mana. Ie the casting cost of lava axe is 4C, whereas Shivan Dragon is 4CC.
