Hi Guys, Since Green has lot of mana generator, Blue has Urza, and Black now got Black Market.

What do you suggest for good generator in White and Red in the currently Standard sets? 

I found the white and red lands are pretty slow. Thanks for suggestion.

    I'm still using combos like:
    Golos + Lotus Fields
    2xReinforced Gemstone Caverns

    The Birth of Meletis (white) 
    Domri vanguard (for mono Red) 

    Or just Gates...

    It really depends which PW you’re using. For Aj1 I just use Mox Tantaline, or the Selesnya or Boros gate depending on my opponent. For Kalemne I use the Boros gate and Battlefield Forge.  

    Temple Garden and Sacred Foundry are also good replacements for the gates. 

    Gruul Guildgate, Temple of Plenty, Stomping Ground and Temple of Abandon are good for Aj1. 

    Idyllic Grange, Temple of Triumph,  Dearven Mine and Castle Ardenvale are good for any W/R walker. 


    I don’t use Nahiri, but if I did, I would use the same strategy as Kalemne.

    I tend to go a bit ‘off piste’ here and go with loyalty converters instead. Seems to work a treat.

    For mono red/white tho I’d probably  jam Lotus Field in with Gemstone caverns and watch in glee when 7 gems convert to my colours when it’s set right.

    Gateway plaza + Boros gate if u run R/W planewalker.
    bUt i prefer using 2 x mono color land in ELD set (rare and common one).

    the posts above cover it pretty well.

    I feel that right now Red is the most powerful color in standard (or perhaps my drawing luck has just pushed me that route).  If I'm correct, I think a lack of mana ramp for the color is a fair balance.  And, of course, there is always Koth + Domri.

    A lot of great advice in this thread. I think this should be the most widely available option, and then there are improvements as you access mythics/masterpieces named above.

    Debatable, to be sure, but cards like Reverb are a big reason red is so good right now. That card does ridiculous things. I wouldn't mind a discussion about top colors in Standard heading into Ikoria. White feels like the weakest to me these days...

    Honestly, I would have been surprised if a comment on any color being the most powerful passed through without debate ;)

    It's hard to say 100% unless you own all the good cards and can rule out personal preference.  I don't have Urza or Godsend, which seem like some of the hyped better standard nonred cards. 

    Theros Gods favor red in power though.  Red has the powerhouse cards right now: Reverb, Killer Instinct, Razia, Rakdos, Krenko is amazing for a rare

    [MOD MIC ON]It looks like this tread is moving a bit off topic -- a conversation on which color is most powerful in Standard would be best suited for a new thread. [BK]

    What I've been doing is picking one color and running the ELD mono Castle + the ELD common converter support.  So in your case I'll run Castle Embereth + Dwarven Mine OR Castle Ardenvale + Idyllic Grange. It also allows you to starve the opponent if you're playing as Nahiri and facing Bolas for example, run white and leave him looking for on color matches.
