Here's my build, I've been toying with it forever, and can't find a steady manabase. I decided to go 2 for each dual land, and run alot of basics to counter the brutal effects of Crucible. Anyone have any thoughts on how I can optimize?

I believe BrassMan was trying out Crucible in Tog to fight Crucible and make Fetchies all that better. Can't find a list right now, but you could probably PM him or contact him on IRC for info.

As a last note. Recoup.

Yeah, I actually ran 2 Crucibles in my build for a long time along with 3 Wastelands. Crucible is just so strong with waste/strip locks that it's hard to cut, even if it doesn't hold true to what the aim of a Hulk deck should be. Crucible lock is brutal, and is the game winner almost 100% of the time if your opponent can't find an answer for it within the next few turns. But ironicly enough, the reason I took OUT Crucible and my Wastes was BECAUSE of opposing Crucibles. I needed the Wasteland slots for basics, because getting Crucible/Wasteland locked was happening too often for my liking. So now I run alot of basics, and basically only fetch for Trops and Volcs when I'm almost ready to dig into the sideboard. Starting the game off with a bunch of basic Islands is probably a key move in this current meta.
