For an efficient Stax you will need Mishra's Workshop... 4 of them.
Poor mans solution is City of Traitors, Ancient Tomb or Crystal Vein...
Power 9 is preferred.
Next is Crucible of Worlds, letting you sacrifice and reuse lands to smokestack...
Lots of good threads on the subject.

Personally, the unbans I would like to see are the ones who will shake up the format. Mana Drain first and foremost...
This is my thought as well. Looking to trade my 2 (not in use) Timeshifted Goyfs into the new frame goyf.
You said it "won´t come of the ban list". I did not specify could or should, but neither did you.
I suppose this is where we disagree. Certain unbanning would cause great change, but the format is growing stale so I would welcome that. When was the last time some new revolutionary deck was designed anyway?
Last time it was Land Tax, and it did jack to the format. At the next crossroad I would speculate that they would; A. Take a bigger "risk" by unbanning something powerful just as they did when unbanning Time Spiral, which was not the disaster people made it out to be, or B. Do nothing at all and let Abrupt Decay and Shaman dominate.
Stop pretending you are gods gift to magic the gathering. Your opinion is just as valid as anyones.
Never the less, this thread is not about trying to influence the unbanning of certain cards, it is simply a discussion thread. Wether or not you are right, is irrelevant now because no one will know until the day it is suddenly unbanned.
What I do know, when I say Mana Drain and Survival of the Fittest could be taken of the banned list, I´m correct. Wether your opinion differs from that, I don´t care.
Light is smart, I see myself as him, therefore I am smart. I have perfect insight, just like him (except you don´t).
I have not seen an argument that makes you undoubtedly "right", and just as I know very little about you, you know very little of me (or any other in here), so don´t think your opinion is worth more than any others in here, because it is not.
I have a deck you might try, it is called Humility.
Gotta make it accessible on equal terms then. Wizards has very little to gain by supporting Legacy. They sold their product a decade ago. They are in the business of making money, and they do that through standard and to a certain degree Modern.
And yes, I do believe there would be a mass exodus of players from Legacy if wizards were to reprint all the valuable Legacy staples. It is not a hypothetical issue at all. Some have saved their cards from when they first started playing, but I believe it is more common to actually buy the cards. It is seen as a rather safe investment and THAT attracts players who prefers to spent a higher one-time fee, rather than to spend a thousand dollars a year just to keep up, and subsequently lose most of what they spend which is always the case in standard.
Fyi, I have never spent a single Euro on Legacy card. Norway is not in the EU and we don´t use Euros.
I know Library of Alexandria is wishful thinking, but I say Mana Drain and Survival of the Fittest would be two good candidates for an unban.
