Inferno Titan’s single Arc Lightning isn’t always that impressive in Commander, so doubling up on it is nice. Instead, I’ll be spreading the love around a few different types of triggers – that way, if you like this idea and decide to build the deck, you’ll get a chance to try things out and figure out what you want to focus on without breaking the bank on cards you end up not loving!ĭealing some damage to your opponents is usually better when doubled! Hellrider goes nicely with tokens, though be aware that putting a creature onto the battlefield tapped and attacking is different from actually attacking and thus won’t generate triggers – I mention this because that’s where a lot of tokens likely come from in Isshin decks. I won’t be focusing on a single outcome from the triggers we’ll be getting from Isshin. With a $50 budget today, we won’t be slotting in Fervent Charge, instead choosing to go with a suite of less expensive cards that Isshin will love.

I’ll be using prices from the ChannelFireball Marketplace to track our costs, specifically the lowest available Near Mint price at the time of this writing.

$50 has a different impact on different people, but given that it’s less than the price of a triple-A console game release, I think it’s a price many will be willing to pay for hours of entertainment, which a Commander deck should provide.

This deck will look a lot like a preconstructed deck – it might lack some of the extra Commander options, but it’ll have a budget mana base, a few subthemes, and some cards you might not have thought to include in the list.Īs always, I’d like to remind you of a couple of things regarding my budget articles: Brewing on a budget is some of the most fun I have as a writer, so I’ve decided to get back to it this week! Today, we’re building a $50 budget Commander deck from scratch.
