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
The ability that defines Barrowgoyf's power and toughness counts card types, not cards
A couple of tutors like Personal Tutor and Scheming Symmetry ensure you have whatever cards you want to cast perhaps Expropriate to get some extra swings in, Breach the Multiverse to build an imposing board state, or Mnemonic Deluge for an encore of your greatest hits
Its basically a non-stop EDH party, and we love it
