So on the 26th i am having some friends over, and while i was originally planning to run a DnD campaign, it seems that a couple players cannot make it. So I am still having people over, but the extent of issues here is that with no DnD we are gonna play Smash and EDH, (And work on character sheets for those who can make it)
However one of the people does not have an EDH deck. he plays EDH and does so often but unlike the rest of us, he does not have a deck. I would lend him one of my decks but right now they are kind of... dismantled. I mean i have one which is not fun to pilot or play against (But i keep it intact for cEDH) and I have a Ninja deck and a Coin flip deck. Sadly both of those are just casual (Though Yuriko can win games if the draws are good, sadly the piloting is a bit more strategic.)
I am looking for something a little more basic. Not completely dumbed down, but 30 dollars and a deck that can hold a candle to tuned-optimized decks. I do not want combo, stax or control. I still want basic strategy as it is going to be a loaner deck.
of course i might just rebuild ghave as my estrid deck is being ripped apart, wasn't fun.
so ideas. (And I am willing to break some rules for certain suggestions, like Brothers Yamazaki being Partners as a commander.
(also, you might not notice it, but bravado looks at the other creatures that the controller controls, so just donate it to the guy with the most creatures. donate gleam of authority to that player who's doing tokens with tonnes of +1/+1 counters, and so on.
Its amazingly fun, cheap to build and can kill players out of nowhere.

I have done Zedruu "voltron" before (i mean i suited up multiple creatures so it was not really voltron per se). this is just a different list of auras.
I don't run either of those cards. I built a hyper budget deck that works really nicely as an aggro/draw/sweep build.
Depends how strong the other decks in the pools are though. It might be a bit too linear to keep up without the money cards.
My whole deck can't be more than £30 total and the most expensive thing in there is a panharmonicon

White Control. Dragon tribal (With probably 11k worth of cards (I run all 10 ABURs, all 10 shocks, all 10 fetches, utility lands, and a bunch of other stuff. But cost does not always mean good. The cards help make the deck good, but does not help make the deck cheap. And teh mana base could be run without the ABURs (i choose to run them since i have them) My brother has Cat tribal and Mollimo. One guy has Spider tribal.
So we pretty much have one deck each. yes we have a few extras but i am looking for something i can have fun playing as well as loaning.
i did not like Arcades, i mean i may still go for it, but as i just said, did not really enjoy it.

It plays like a green stompy and can overrun the board if you've got the right sweepers in the deck.
Cards like fell the mighty and wave of reckoning.
The best part is that it can be built really cheap because they're all jank defenders who can swing big.

Legacy - Solidarity - mono U aggro - burn - Imperial Painter - Strawberry Shortcake - Bluuzards - bom
Maybe... but i will have to think about it. removing shield sphere from my cEDH is a problem, and i will have to find a wall of kelp somewhere.
