I've been "out of the loop" for some time now; what card/cards will allow me to have 3 or more red mana on my first turn?

Answer 3

Yes, no matter how long you’ve been out of the loop. The red ritual cards are still here.

The first option for you is the ever-loved Rite of Flame. This one red mana instant from Coldsnap is only a common, but this didn’t stop its price from going up to three whole dollars (three dollars for a common?? You’ve got to be kidding me…)Anyhow, it gives you RR back, plus an additional R for each card named “rite of flame” in your graveyard, meaning that you would have to play two in order to get RRR on your first turn.

The second option is Simian Spirit Guide. This is a common from Planar Chaos has the handy ability to remove itself from the game in your hand to add R to your mana pool. This is extremely useful, as you don’t actually have to do anything else in order to add mana to your mana pool.

Other than that, there isn’t much that one can do to have RRR in the first turn. Remember, it’s standard, and the standard format is slower than other formats.

I hope that helped.
