Hi everyone!! I'm trying to build an As Nausem combo deck, and I need tips for the mana base. The way the deck works is: cast Angels grace(I can't lose the game this turn for any reason this turn) and Ad Nauseam(reveal a card from the top of my library and put it in my hand, I lose life equal to its CMC. I may repeat this process any umber of times.), to draw my entire deck. I en discard 3 simian spirit guides and cast lightning Storm( discard X lands, deal 2X+3 damage to target player. With my entire deck in my hand, X is an absurdly large number. I have pact of negation to counter any counters, and slaughter pact to deal with any creatures which may be of annoyance. The deck list goes: 1 Boseju, who shelters all 1 Gemstone Caverns 2 Temple of Enlightenment 2 Temple of Deceit 1 Seachrome Coast 1 Watery Grave 1 Hallowed Fountain 2 Scalding Tarn 2 Marsh Flats 1 Island 1 Swamp 1 Plains 4 Gemstone Mine4 Simian Spirit Guide 1 Lightning storm 1 Conjurer's Bauble 1 Mystical Teachings 1 slaughter pact 3 Pact of Negation 4 Serum Visions 4 Sleight of Hand 2 Peer Through Depths 4 Lotus Bloom 4 Pentad Prism 3 Phyrexian Unlife 4 Angel's Grace 4 Ad Nauseam Sideboard 3 Hurlyl's recall 3 Leyline of Sanctity 1 Drown in Sorrow 1 Silence 1 Teferi, Mage of Zhalfir 1 Patrician's Scorn 1 Echoing Truth 1 Tormod's Crypt 1 Phyrexian Unlife 1 Tolaria West 1 Slaughter Pact I'm looking for tips on how to make e manabase cheaper. I'm solid on the spells and sideboard, but I want to know how the lands could be cheaper without sacrificing the decks power and speed? Thanks!

Ad nauseam doesn't win from having a cheap mana base. Playing lands that come into play tapped doesn't work for a deck like this. I have a vintage build of this deck, although legacy style is the more popular build due to being able to play 4 lions eye diamond and 4 brainstorm but I built one that works alright for Vintage.Blue 1 Brainstorm 4 Pact of Negation 1 Ponder 1 Mystical Tutor 1 Flusterstorm 1 Ancestral Recall (Proxy) 1 Time walk (Proxy) Black 1 Demonic Tutor 1 Vampiric Tutor 4 Ad Nauseam 3 Tendrils of Agony 1 Demonic Consultation 4 Dark Ritual 4 Cabal Ritual 1 Yawgmoth's Bargain 1 Necropotence Artifact 1 Mana Crypt 1 Mana Vault 1 Lotus Petal 1 Sol Ring 1 Lion's Eye Diamond 1 Mox Opal 4 Chrome Mox 4 Mox Diamond 1 Black Lotus (Proxy) 1 Mox Jet (Proxy) 1 Mox Sapphire (Proxy) Land 4 Underground Sea 4 Polluted Delta 4 City of Traitors 1 Tolarian Academy Many of the 1 ofs are because they are restricted for Vintage play. Still not a cheap deck to build even with power proxies.
