Greetings! This is my first time posting in the MTGSal forums, I hope this is the right place for this.
Long story short, I run an after-school game club for kids in 6-8 grade and I've been in the process of building fun, budget, low-power decks to help teach the game's concepts a few decks at a time. Does anyone have any suggestions for 40-card decks I can build for less than $5 each that will help young kids love the game?
Some basic ones I'd like to implement:
1. UR Thopter/Artifact Deck.
2. Simple BG Delirium deck.
3. RB Take-Control-and-Sacrifice-Enemies deck.
4. Any 1- or 2-color deck heavy on Combat Tricks.
5. Any decks that got YOU to love the game when you first started!
Does anyone have some decklists (40- or 60-card) that might be of use? I simply don't have the mental database of ALL the best budget cards to go into these decks without searching Gatherer for hours on end. Thanks!! -Cyg
I can make it into a 60 card deck if you want but this is more budget!
That should be a pretty decent and cheap deck and It works very, VERY! effectively. Now if the lands are to few just change out some goblin arsonists and lightning strikes for like 3 more lands and it should be all fine!
One of my first thoughts when I read your post was to building pauper decks. It caps rarity so it's easier to balance power, and there are plenty of cool decks out there that pauper supports perfectly. Plus it teaches them that rarity doesn't always match power level.
