I've recently started playing vintage again with Ichorid, and I want to move up to a more complex and fun to play deck. I don't want to invest in power or bazaars yet, but I was looking at various 5-proxy decks and was wondering what decks you guys would recommend. I was looking at Dragon, but it seems to need to be fully powered + bazaars or close to it - does anyone have a decent 5-proxy list? Otherwise I could run Oath, but I don't know that the deck would be better or worse. My meta is pretty fluid, depending on who turns up for the day and who's running what deck. We have some Uba Stax, some Oath, some Ichorid but very little combo besides 1 guy who runs dragon sometimes and another who plays Hermit Druid combo.
EDIT: Is there a Doomsday pile that wins with the dragon pieces? I started with
TOP-Ancestral/LED/Street Wraith/Worldgorger/Animate Dead-Bottom
which draws the game for 1 blue for ancestral. You can straight out win if you are holding LED by going
TOP-Ancestral/Street Wraith/Worldgorger/Ambassador Lacquatus/Animate Dead-Bottom
But I couldn't figure one out for holding ancestral, but I'm sure there is one. What about when you have bazaar on the board? There has to be a viable DDay/Dragon UB Hybrid.

For that particular metagame I'd suggest U/W Fish http://www.themanadrain.com/index.php?topic=30089.0 Reading the entire thread would take quite awhile so look at the more recent lists.
The only "expensive" cards are Ancestral Recall, Time Walk, Black Lotus, and Mox Pearl and Sapphire. The deck has good game vs Stax, Oath game 1 (and games 2+3 if you run Curfew board), Ichorid isn't an auto-loss but still not great, and very good game vs Dragon.
