Depends on what format you're wanting to play. In the modern format, there a deck called Tron that should be right up your alley. It tries to get 3 lands(Urza's Mine, Power Plant, and Tower) which then the lands tap for 2, 2, and 3 colorless mana respectively. The plan is to assemble the 3 Urza lands(like assembling Voltron, which is why the deck is called Tron), and just keep playing big threat after threat until the enemy dies.

There are a bunch of variants on it now too, depending on what you want. There's Eldrazi Tron(and color variants on the Eldrazi Tron), Standard Tron(focused on playing Ugin, Karn, and Wurmcoil Engine mostly, but does splash a bit of green to play cards that look for specific lands and threats to help assemble Tron easier, and to find the threats), and Blue Tron.(this variant plays some counter magic, basically tries to stall the game until it finds the Tron pieces)

I would recommend Standard Tron, but Eldrazi Tron is very powerful and has a better early game(which means it has a better match up vs. aggro decks). Blue Tron has been mostly been abandoned, but it does show up from time to time, and puts up pretty decent performances when it does show up.
