Is anyone else running a restore balance deck? I'd like to see and compare some deck lists to my own. I've seen a few versions but I'm running {borderposts} with {cascades} (obviously) and {gargadons} an nihiliths for my creatures. I also run a couple {phyrexian totem} and {march of the machines} as backup.
You can link to cards by putting curly brackets around it.
Do you have a Decklist?
My List
{Ardent Plea} 4x
{Darksteel Ingot} 4x
{Demonic Dread}4x
{Fieldmist Outpost} 4x
{Firewild Outpost} 4x
{Foriysian Totem} 1x
{March of the Machines} 4x
{Mistvein Borderpost} 4x
{Phyrexian Totem} 4x
{Restore Balance} 4x
{Veinfire Borderpost} 4x
{Violent Outburst} 4x
{Wildfield Borderpost} 4x
{Swamp} 2x
{Mountain} 3x
{Forest} 3x
{Plains} 2x
{Island} 2x
I didn't know I'd already paired this here! Anyway, I'm thinking of replacing a lot of the lands with the scars lands I.e. {Blackcleave Cliffs}. Mainly because this deck won't ever have out more than two lands at a time. Thoughts?

That actually sounds like a good idea to me.
For sure! They're pretty cheap to pick up right now too, and are an easy way to fix your mana.
I like it alot! Cool idea. To make it faster, since you included islands, you should put {Paradox Haze} to speed up everything.

That's a pretty cool card that would go well with a curse deck. You'd go and search for two curses in one turn right?

That's a really good idea, I'll have to mess around and see if I can fit it in.
The great thing is that this card stacks too. I had a suspend deck long ago that had a bunch of those resuspend cards that would do their effect every single turn because I had 3 paradox hazes out. Lmao.
Ugh you guys I just realized you can't really use the scars lands for this deck, because the borderposts read that you pay 1 and return a BASIC land you control to your hand. Lame, I was super excited for the new land base :(
So it seems to me like you would end up with a number of lands in your hand, keeping what on the battlefield at a minimum?
If so you could try {Arcane Spyglass} to help increase your effectiveness and get passed extra lands that will just slow your turns down.
Also check out {Knight of the Reliquary} if this kind of thing works well here. {Bant Panorama} may also assist?
Also {Khalni Gem}?
