Do you have any Shock lands?  You could run those, then stuff like ! Armillary Sphere ! and Gem of Becoming would be good to include.





Must nitpick... Armillary Sphere won't work with Rav shock lands.  Instead, run Zendikar fetch lands , three of which are listed, to search for them, OP.

A couple of dual shocklands that count as Plains can be fetch by Gift of Estates . Shard Convergence and Sylvan Scrying can help.

Oh yeah.  I stand corrected.

Gaea's Blessing is all-star in a deck like this, though be wary of deck and graveyard destruction. Counter measures to that, like Elixir of Immortality can prove quite important in a deck that can be really damaged by that sort of hate.

Those preparations aside, I think Kaalia of the Vast could really find a home here.

Thanks for all the suggestions. I've added the stuff that you all have suggested. I have not dealt with the fetch lands or shock lands, yet. My main problem with shock lands at the moment is that they are a bit pricey, but it will probably be a good investment in the future. I am thinking about adding the other obelisks instead of the guild signets. Also the total deck count is 99 not counting basic lands, so cutting cards from the deck will also be important suggestions.

Dont play obelisks over signets. If you want three drop mana producers there are a good half dozen that make any color.
When playing Commander, before you add a card to your deck, you have to ask yourself:
"Is this card better than Rings ?"
If you play commander and don't have your deck[s] in the Decklist Compendium, maybe you should. Or if you're new or looking into the format, the compendium has some good advice for beginners as well as decklists.

We should all have one of these playable from our sideboards

Agree with niheloim. If you want 3CC Mana Fixers consider Chromatic Lantern and Darksteel Ingot .

I'd also suggest the Talismans from Mirrordin. Stuff like Talisman of Indulgence .

You can drop Jungle Shrine, Savage Lands, Seaside Citadel, or Crumbling Necropolis.

Experiment with Lairs. Crosis's Catacombs , Darigaaz's Caldera , Dromar's Cavern , Rith's Grove , Treva's Ruins . You can bounce a tapped non-Lair land and Lairs enter the battlefield untapped. So you really don't lose any ground.

Amulet of vigor is aweome, I used it in Slivers until I got Duals and Shocks. You can trinket mage for it and transmute for it with Dizzy spell not to mention just tutor it up.
