Deck discussion for Valakut Ramp

no point in pointing out Scapeshift I suppose is there? You're using sylvan scrying so you aren't trying to be type 2 legal or anything like that.

The use of Sylvan Scrying tells me this is not for Standard, and the lack of Scapeshift in an Extended version of this deck tells me this is casual. If you'd like to make it more competitive, based on my own experience with this deck (http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=50252):

1) Lose Sylvan Scrying to make it Standard-legal.

2) More land. 25 is the minimum, 26 is optimal. +1 Mountain, +2 Evolving WIlds, -1 Terramorphic Expanse (using both EW and TE reduces the chances of either being stopped by Pithing Needle).

3) Borderland Ranger and Walking Atlas are not really good in this deck. Goblin Ruinblaster is sideboard material at best. Avenger of Zendikar (his cost isn't as hard to get as it appears), Siege-Gang Commander, Oracle of Mul-Daya, and Ondu Giant are much better choices. -4 Borderland Ranger, -4 Walking Atlas, -4 Goblin Ruinblaster, +2-3 Avenger, +4 Siege-Gang, +3-4 Oracle.

4) Comet Storm is simply amazing in this deck, almost to the point of it being a crime not to run it. +2-3 Comet Storm.

I agree completely with everything you guys said but I like my decks to cost very little.... With the website I use I could build this deck for under $5.

Alright than. My suggestion would be to use growth spasm. It's a rampant growth that gives you an eldrazi spawn and is common. If nothing else it may stall for a turn while you get Valakut online.
