I'm in the brewing stage of a deck, and I'm wondering, When do you choose one set of lands over the other?
Its a big mana deck thats all I'm giving away...

I believe post is almost strictly better.
If you have all the lands out, post (4x8 + 4 = 36) gets you more mana vs urza (4x2 + 4x2 + 4x3 = 28).
Post also gains you life with the glimmerposts.
And lastly, its easier to get more mana with fewer lands. A couple of cloudposts or just a cloudpost and a glimmerpost is already getting you more mana vs the fact that you have to have all 3 different lands in play before you see any benefit.
And that's probably why they banned them in modern but not the urza lands.
