It’s here working its magic again by letting us rebuy on triggers we get from turning things face up. One of my favorite creatures from Legions, Weaver of Lies was a significant component of my 60-card casual morph deck at the time. Weaver of Lies ($0.35) and Master of the Veil ($0.49)
Don’t worry–the deck is still the right size. I’ll warn you now that I did want more creatures in this deck, so there will be more cards added here than I cut above. Great Oak Guardian and Apex Altisaur are good creatures, but they’re a bit costly and off-theme. (Do combine Mirrorpool with it, though – thanks to Bennie Smith for the great tweet that tipped me off to this!) Thought Sponge and Voice of Many get outclassed by other card draw engines, including Kadena itself.
(Make sure you check out the Commander Newsletter, where I’ve written about Volrath already and either will write about Grismold or already have, depending on when this is published.) Scaretiller is an awesome card in a deck that supports it, which this is not. Grismold, Rayami, and Volrath all deserve their own decks and don’t fit well here. I’m going to start out by cutting some creatures–particularly, ones without morph. Morph is one of my personal favorite mechanics, partially because the friends I made playing in Onslaught block are some of my best friends to this day and partially because it’s just sweet.įor reference, here are all the original decklists for the precons. Since we’ll be working with Kadena, we’ll focus on the morph (and, to an extent, manifest) theme. The idea is that pumping money into Commander decks by buying hyped-up cards isn’t a direct path to victory or fun instead, synergy and theme are the big motivators here. Because of how linear time works, prices and availability may have changed since I wrote this, and if that happens, I apologize for the inconsistency. That way, you can see how I keep things within budget.
That amount is more of a significant expense for some than others, but the idea is to show you how to improve a deck on a budget.Īs we go through the improvements, I’ll list the prices (from, of course) of the cards I’m adding. As you may recall, the premise is to take the preconstructed decks and spend up to $50 (before tax and shipping) to improve them. This time around, we’ll be focusing on the Faceless Menace deck featuring Kadena, Slinking Sorcerer. The time has come for our final Commander 2019 Budget Precon Upgrade.
