IBC for Cheap

[galtwish]

4 Thornscape Apprentice
4 Llanowar Knight
4 Benalish Trapper
4 Blurred Mongoose
4 Noble Panther
2 Fleetfoot Panther
3 Charging Troll
3 Jade Leech
4 Wax/Wane
4 Armadillo Cloak
4 Elfhame Palace
9 Plains
11 Forest

SB
4 Obsidian Acolyte
4 Crimson Acolyte
4 Sunscape Battlemage
3 Wallop

Fast beats, board control, lifegain, prot: Vindicate, Spite/Malice, Terminate, Rage, etc. GoMar is a tough (hence the SB), and Desolation Angel gets hers from Wallop. And it's only about $50 of cards, total. Voice of all is good, but there is too much B and R removal out there right now, making Voice overcosted.

Hope this helps get the discussion off the "IBC is too expensive" kick"

The other end of the spectrum...
4 Shivan Zombie
4 Phrexian Rager
4 Ebony Treefolk
4 Thornscape Battlemage
4 Spirit Monger
4 Scorching Lava
4 Fire/Ice
3 Reckless Spite
4 Terminate
1 Darigaaz Cavern
3 Urborg Volcano
3 Shivan Oasis
5 Forest
5 Mountian
8 Swamp

SB
4 Slay
4 Plague Spitter
4 Tranquility
3 Bog Down/Order-Chaos

With an eye towards beating U/W/b decks. Reckless spite is highly underrated in a strong Prot: Red environment such as this (Galina's Knight, Lynx, Acolyte). G/R should be tough, but the SB of Slay and Spitter kills their 12 X/1 creatures and their 5/5s. W/G is the biggest threat, but nobody plays that, do they

Sugestions?
