Hello awesome Commander fans who don't have much of a budget! Welcome to the next installment of my Budget Series! It's also my third Commander article in the newly released LCI set! Each article's budget must come in at or under the previous one, a Yenna deck. that cost just $32.14! Nicely done! As someone who was unemployed for a while, I know what being on a budget is actually like, therefore, enter this series!

So...who am I building around here?

This two-drop uncommon Rakdos that costs 49 cents. I have never tried a Rakdos Group Slug in this series before so let's see if I can make it work! Also did you note that he has deathtouch, so he plays keep away. At the end of your end step, if you descended which means anything from discarding to sacrificing a dork, you can trigger him, and your foes will discard or sac and if they can't they'll shoot themselves in the face for three damage each.

Mana, Ramp, Lands

Even though I have a limited barely more than $30 budget I always start with mana first and really emphasize it, since I want this to be playable and cheap. Let's start this thing! I'll give you the breakdown cost here under a heading:

0.75:

• 1 Geier Reach Sanitarium

0.49:

• 1 Hedron Archive

0.35:

• 1 Glittering Stockpile
• 1 Volatile Fault
• 1 Wayfarer's Bauble

0.25:

• 1 Armillary Sphere
• 1 Barren Moor
• 1 Commander's Sphere
• 1 Desert of the Fervent
• 1 Desert of the Glorified
• 1 Evolving Wilds
• 1 Field of Ruin
• 1 Forgotten Cave
• 1 Hidden Necropolis
• 1 Hidden Volcano
• 1 Mind Stone
• 1 Mortuary Mire
• 1 Rakdos Cluestone
• 1 Rakdos Guildgate
• 1 Rakdos Locket
• 1 Rix Maadi, Dungeon Palace
• 1 Stonespeaker Crystal
• 1 Terramorphic Expanse

0.15:

• 1 Polluted Mire
• 1 Smoldering Crater

Since our leader costs two mana, we don't need rocks with the right amount of mana to accelerate his dropping, instead I am running on theme stuff, like Commander's Sphere and Stonespeaker Crystal. The three-drop common can tap for all of our colors so it's a Rakdos Signet here. Then you can sacrifice it for free to draw a card and trigger your leader's descend EOT trigger. That's why I am running things like Rakdos Locket and Mind Stone. This uncommon taps for two colorless and you can tap it with two mana to exile all other graveyards and then draw that card as well!

Armillary Sphere costs two, sacrifices for two with a tap, and then you can tutor up two basics and toss them into your hand! Terramorphic Expanse gets you a land tapped, and this pair will trigger your commander!

Now let's turn to this Black tapping ETB tapped common pair that are part of a cycle! The former will cycle for a Black to go from your hand to your graveyard to trigger your dork and then draw a card too. I have all six non-rare cyclers here as well since they are all pretty cheap. The latter one was just printed and then you can tap it with five mana to sacrifice to get a free discover 4, which is card value since you can draw it if it's not feasible unlike cascade 4, and then you can trigger your leader!

Now let's turn to special lands! Geier Reach Sanitarium taps for colorless, arrives untapped, and then taps with two to have everyone draw and discard, and if you discard a permanent, you'll trigger Zoyowa! Then I also tossed in uncommon everyone discards Rakdos land Rix Maadi. Field of Ruin taps for colorless too, can be tapped with two and sacrificed to destroy another nonbasic and everyone ramps out a basic from their library untapped, so it's a multiplayer-friendly Wasteland.

Total after this section - $7.78

Card Flow

Normally at this stage I wouldn't move to card flow next, but In Budget Commanders I want to make sure I can draw the good stuff, so let's turn to it now!

0.99:

• 1 Brass's Tunnel Grinder

0.49:

• 1 Ambition's Cost
• 1 Ancient Craving

  1 Faithless Looting

0.35:

• 1 Bitter Reunion
• 1 Honor the God-Pharaoh

0.25:

• 1 Electric Revelation
• 1 Fanatical Offering
• 1 Plundering Predator
• 1 Thrill of Possibility
• 1 Village Rites

0.15:

• 1 Quarrel's End

We have a few ways to draw cards that are cheap in this color combo - life for cards in Black, impulsive card flow in Red where you exile from the top of your library but have a limited cast window, rummaging in Red to discard and draw, and then sacrifice for cards in Black. I am running everything but impulsive stuff here. Let's start with my instant speed sacrifice for cards like Village Rites or the just-printed Fanatical Offering! It costs two, sacrifices an artifact or dork to trigger Zoyowa, draws two and then make a Map for future sacrifice or card flow.

The discard to draw is good since you can trigger Zoyowa if you discard a permanent. Bitter Reunion will discard one, draw two on arrival to the battlefield, and then you can sac it for one mana to give your stuff haste for the turn, so you can trigger descend twice over two turns here.

Now let's turn to this rare land just printed in this set as well! It costs four for an artifact and when it ETBs you can discard any number of card and draw that many plus one! That's nasty card flow here. Then in your end step you can put a bore counter here if you descended and then after three, you can transform it to the Searing Rift which can tap for Red and then when you use it for a permanent, likely here, you get a free discover trigger equal to its mana value!! Nasty card flow and synergy here in one card!

Plundering Predator costs five, has a 3/3 flying body to swing and win, and an ETB trigger with you discarding and drawing a card, which is a may effect. It's only been printed in a Jumpstart as a common, but is just a quarter on the secondary market. I like it here as a body that can be sacrificed and then trigger your dork twice wth the discard first.

Faithless Looting so good it was banned in many formats where legal. Also note that this Commander Classic is actually cheap on the seconday market here. You draw two and then discard two too, so it's better than Red's normal discard to draw.

Total after this section - $12.59

Answers

Now let's turn to answers next rather than synergies to make sure I have enough interaction to stay alive!

0.75:

• 1 Terror Tide

0.49:

• 1 Plaguecrafter

0.25:

• 1 Executioner's Capsule
• 1 Fatal Grudge
• 1 Fleshbag Marauder
• 1 Ingot Chewer
• 1 Shriekmaw

0.20:

• 1 Into the Core
• 1 Seal of Doom
• 1 Slum Reaper

0.15:

• 1 Demon's Disciple
• 1 Feed the Swarm

Let's start this section with this targeted removal pair. The instant is a Budget Commander Staple for me since you can answer, at instant speed, two artifacts permanently by exiling them and that's two for one for less than a quarter. The sorcery costs two, answers any creature or enchantment and then you'll lose life equal to its mana value. I wanted to drop it here since it's the only targeted enchantment removal spell here in my colors.

Now let's turn to a synergetic removal pair. Every deck needs mass removal, even a budget one like this, so I tossed in Terror Tide. This four-cost rare will sweep all creatures by giving them power and toughness reductions equal to your permanent in your graveyard. Since we are filling it out, that should be a lot! This will slip past indestructible dorks since they'll die too. Fatal Grudge will sacrifice a nonland and draw you a card to replace it. Then your foes have to sacrifice something that shares a type with it, so if you sacrifice a creature, your foes will each sacrifice a creature too. Note that scales up as you do against more foes and will trigger your leader.

Let's finish with removal on stick options! Can you see why Shriekmaw is here? He is here to spend two, kill something, then trigger your leader and recur later. I am also running Ingot Chewer that does this too. Then the Edicts like Fleshbag Marauder on sticks are all here since they will sacrifice your stuff or themselves and then Edict everyone else too, so you can get a great removal effect that counts as descending for you too. Great group to end this with!

Total after this section - $15.83

First Run of Key Synergies and Winning Conditions

We won't hit this section hard I just want to run key stuff this first run through.

1.99:

• 1 Wound Reflection

0.99:

• 1 Rankle, Master of Pranks
• 1 Starving Revenant

0.49:

• 1 Chainer, Dementia Master
• 1 Necrogoyf

0.25:

• 1 Enterprising Scallywag

0.20:

• 1 Canonized in Blood
• 1 Child of the Volcano

0.15:

• 1 Broodrage Mycoid
• 1 Deep Goblin Skulltaker

Now let's turn to synergies and win cons and we'll start with other things with descend EOT triggers. The Fungus Broodrage Mycoid costs four, drops as a 4/3, and EOT you'll make a free 1/1 Fungus token that cannot block. Since you are getting a free token EOT, this is sacrifice fodder or going wide to win too. Child of the Volcano costs four for a 3/3 trampling body. EOT you get a free +1/+1 counter on it if you descended, and with trample, that should win pretty quickly as you focus on growing this for a win in the Red zone or to finish off wounded players. See also the menace three-drop Deep Goblin Skulltaker that also wins.

The enchantment costs six for a mono-Black synergy. Each time your foes lose life they lose double. That's a backup win con for your combat damage or EOT descend trigger with your Commander. The creature costs four in Rakdos colors for a 3/2. You can discard a card from your hand and then cast a dork from your graveyard, but just once per turn. Whenever a nontoken critter ETBs under your control, if it wasn't cast from your hand it gains haste, so that works for your free graveyard casts! It's here for a free discard that doesn't require mana or tapping, discard to trigger your leader, and then recur with haste what you discarded if a dork or cast something else instead!

Rankle, Master of Pranks has flying and haste on an on-curve 3/3 body. It can swing immediately at open stuff and has a combat damage trigger for everyone! You can all discard a card, lose a life and draw a card, or sacrifice a dork! That trio of removal, draw, or discard is great here with your discards of permanents triggering your descend as well as sacrificing or you can just have everyone draw.

When Starving Revenant ETBs, you surveil two and then for each card you put on top of your library you draw it and lose three life or you can trigger your stuff with a descend surveil. Whenever you go to draw a card, if you have at least eight permanents then your foes you'll lose a life and you'll gain it, so that's winnowing life drain here. That's pretty likely here.

Total after this section - $21.82 with 15 cards left heading to the next key section.

Group Slug Stuff

1.49:

• 1 Polluted Bonds

1.25:

• 1 Painful Quandary

0.99:

• 1 Revenge of Ravens

0.75:

• 1 Pain Magnification

0.49:

• 1 Harsh Mentor
• 1 Impatience
• 1 Scytheclaw Raptor
• 1 Sin Prodder
• 1 Sulfuric Vortex

0.35:

• 1 Loyal Subordinate

Now let's turn to Group Slug stuff with these two uncommon Rakdos three-drop enchantments, The mono-Red one will have everyone take two damage in their upkeep, you too! Then if someone would gain life they instead don't so this shuts down life gain to get out of your life loss effects. The Rakdos one has a trigger. When you would deal three or more damage from a single source of yours to a foe, they'll discard too. Our Commander's descend trigger can shoot them for three and now they'll discard and most of our creatures have at least three power so that'll strip out cards too.

Now let's turn to mono-Black rare five cost enchantments! Painful Quandary is a trigger when your foes cast any spell, they can lose 5 life unless they discard a card, and with all of our discards that could be loads of life loss. Polluted Bonds is a landfall trigger for your foes and they will lose two life and you'll gain it back too, so it's a break on mass land drop rampers.

Let's turn to mono-Red dorks! Sin Prodder costs three for an on-curve 3/2 with menace. In your upkeep you'll reveal the top card of your libray and then draw it unless your foe loses life equal to it's mana cost. Either you'll draw or they'll take damage and you'll mill it maybe triggering descend, either way its good for you!

Just printed, Scytheclaw Raptor has a bigger 4/3 body with a disadvantage for everyone. When someone casts a spell other than on their turn, they are shot for a massive four damage to their face!! We only have a handful of instants here, since this is a permanent heavy brew! You can save your Into the Cores until your turn. But how is your foe interacting with things like Heroic Intervention or Counterspell with you? Get it? Great!

Total after this section - $29.20 - With 5 cards left

I have $2.94 so I have a budget of around a bulk rare each card left and some for lands. This is where I often run my synergy I liked but wasn't key of my cards I already ran. I could also run key Group Slug, card flow, ramping or answers that I missed in my stuff. For example, I cut in the numbers for ramp the budget friendly Burnished Hart that costs just a quarter since you can sac It for two lands ramped and then it counts as a creature in your graveyard for things that care, but just a quarter when I have almost three bucks free in five cards?

0.75:

• 1 Oversold Cemetery

0.49:

• 1 Cryptolith Fragment
• 1 Gray Merchant of Asphodel
• 1 Magus of the Wheel

0.25:

• 1 Burnished Hart

Now let's turn to this pair of stuff. See why the enchantment was added? With it here, you can Raise Dead in your upkeep for free without casting or using any resources if you have at least four dorks in your graveyard. See how great that is here? The Fragment arrives tapped and taps for any color and drains everyone (you too) of life loss and is a Group Slug classic. It transforms if everyone has less than 10 life - hard with a 40-life starting format like Commander - but becomes a 1/4 flying deathtouch to play keep away from bigger things and then when it swings you gain a trio of life. Strong stuff here!
