Every single deck that I have played against in FNM has run nothing but shocklands and core set duals. There are people playing white/green hybrid lands over basic forests just to be slightly more consistent when casting reckoner.
Son, I am going to main deck 4 of this card in every deck that I play until it rotates. And when it rotates, it's probably going to stay maindeck, and the judge is going to have to walk over, pull it out of the sleeve, and replace it with a basic mountain while someone holds me back.
Are you the same guy who played maindeck 4x Surgical Extraction 4x Memoricide at my local store last season? Please come back, I don't get as many free wins anymore! ; )
In all fairness though, as long as you're mono red, I think it's still a sideboard card, but won't be super awful in the main, unless you constantly get paired up against other mono-red opponents. And let's be honest, if there is justice in the universe, you will.
Has anyone tried Faithless Looting? Seems like it would work great as an accelerator, essentially like cycling twice on turn 1, possibly even two of the 2 cost cyclers. You can even flash it back turn 3 (or 2 with simian spirit guide) if you haven't drawn into the cascade cards you need.
I'm going to try 2 maindeck for now.
Edit: The second I posted this I realized my brainfart... of course, the CMC prevents you from playing it.
