turn 1 - play a land. cast any creatures you have that cost 1 mana to play if you can...
turn 2 - play a land. cast Braid of Fire
turn 3 - play a land. put an age counter on BOF, then it adds 1 red to your mana pool. play paradox haze - use the mana in your mana pool already to play it, so that u can keep an extra land untapped to play any burn spells if you need to.

turn 4 - play a land. on your first upkeep, you put an age counter on BOF then add 2 red to your mana pool. then because of paradox haze, you have an extra upkeep, so you add another age counter to BOF then add 3 red to your mana pool.
at this point, you have 5 in your mana pool from BOF. you can use the 4 lands you have played to add 4 to your mana pool, and play anything that costs 9 or less. on turn 4.
it keeps on going and you get more and more mana.
the next turn you would get 8 mana from BOF.
the next, you would have 11 mana from BOF.
etc...
this would be VERY useful in eldrazi decks, or any decks with huge creatures...

eldzari yes, creature no. This mana is made during you upkeep step. Because of rule 106.4 it doesn't stay form you upkeep phase to your main phase. It can be used to play instants and abilities, but unless you have something to give all you spells flash, you can't use it for creatures, sorceries, enchantments, or planeswalkers. This works for paying upkeep costs, or using abilities with big mana costs, which eldzari cards have some that cost 8, so it is good for things like that.

There's a green card that lets you keep mana in your mana pool between phases.

thanks for the suggestions!
i never really thought bout the mana emptying from your mana pool after steps and phases thing...
but upwelling really would help!
unfortunately...
it would be hard to make a deck with PH, BOF, and upwelling...
red, green, and blue is kinda hard to pull off together...
especially since theres no 3 coloured lands for that colour combo...
red/green would work though, i like running R/G decks anyways :P ..

teferi would fix most of that. He would be the backbone of this kind of thing though.
