Hello everyone. I'm new and I spent hours developing this budget deck. Any advice will really help, since I didn't buy any cards yet. Here is deck and thanks in advance!
Thalia's Lieutenant is extremely important for pumping your whole team. If you're already pushing your budget limits with this list I'd even cut some Knight of the White Orchid to pay for her instead.
So far I've only been playing in the Tournament Practice room, but this deck just keeps winning. It easily beats red aggro and pressures slower decks really quickly. I've beaten Grixis Delver (even through Anger of the Gods in game 3), Lantern/Thopter Foundry control, all sorts of aggro decks, green ramp decks etc. The deck just kinda...works. And it can be built for about 80 tix (MTGO)/$130 (Paper) if you don't run Cavern of Souls and replace Elspeth, Knight-Errant with Return to the Ranks.
