Gray Merchant of Asphodel The weakest body by far on this list, with this card you are almost entirely paying for the effect
First, Ramp decks don't play many cards that can be easily interacted with
I personally did not include them in my top 5 picks, since I believe that there are better and more impactful lands in the format, but especially players who prefer to play aggressive strategies cherish them and will probably disagree with me
The only downside with this card is that it costs nine mana, which isnt cheap at all
My recommendation: keep eBay in your back pocket for selling cards, but also keep an eye out for an occasional deal on a card youve been searching for
That means we get classic spells such as Counterspell, a two-mana spell that, shockingly, counters a target spell
