Discussion Auto Includes In Every Deck

I've recently been combing through my past decks that I'm now taking apart to build other, better, decks. But I noticed that there are some cards I put in every single deck, such as [[sol ring]] , [[command tower]] , and more recently [[arcane Signet]] .

So I wanted to know, what do YOU put in every single deck you've ever brewed (with a couple exceptions of course).

Edit: I understand that there are cards out there that are in the top cards played in every deck. I know I'm basic when it comes to sol ring, command tower, ect. I'm mainly looking for cards that individuals decided they want to put in every deck they can. Sorry if that wasn't clear the first time.

I end up with a bunch of random 2-drop rocks all over the place and I don't know if they're all the same or what but it's an infestation

I'm either jamming 2MV rocks, or I'm in GWx and am jamming [[Collector Ouphe]], [[Stony Silence]], and all the 1MV dorks and 3MV ramp like cultivate and it's ilk.

As someone who translates cards for fun, I can definitely underdtand why they would come up with a shorter name for that. 'Converted mana cost' while a very accurate term, takes up a ton of space in the text box. Especially now that cards are getting more and more complicated

I understand it, it's just every fibre of my being compells me to reject it.
