lhill22674 @waddellj83 is this the lowest price youd do
By paying life equal to the spells cost, you build a token that grows massive very quickly but only once per turn, so timing matters
Ramp can appear in different shapes and forms: Land-Based Ramp (Cultivate, Rampant Growth) Mana Dorks (Llanowar Elves, Bugenhagen, Wise Elder) Mana Rocks (Mind Stone, Basalt Monolith) Treasure-Makers and other artifact token producers (Smothering Tithe, Sarinth Greatwurm) Extra land drops (Exploration, Exploration Broodship) Land Recursion (Crucible of Worlds, Aftermath Analyst) Rituals (Dark Ritual, Mana Geyser) Cost Reduction (Honest Rutstein, Stormcatch Mentor) Eldrazi Spawn & Scion producers (Eldrazi Skyspawner, Kozilek's Predator) Mana Doublers (Mirari's Wake, Groundchuck & Dirtbag) Temporary mana abilities (firebending) This ranking will cover many of these forms of ramp, but will leave some more specific ones like Treasure-makers to their own separate list
