My group plays with no general damage and no French ban list. We play with either 40 starting life (free for all or Star) or 60 starting life (Two Headed Giant, be it 2v2 or 2v2v2).
My group frowns upon infinite combos, land destruction, and locks.
I'm a budget player who plays with other budget players, so I'm not interested in buying expensive cards for this deck. I try to keep most cards under two dollars, with only a few in the five dollar range (or more, if it's something I've opened).
I'm only interested in black-bordered, modern frame cards.
I also play sram enchantress. I will try to take budget into consideration but its always hard to say what people are willing to spring money for and what they aren't.
Emeria, the Sky Ruin - it looks like its on the high end of your budget but I think its very strong in these high basic land decks.
Hero of Iroas - its cheap and it potentially allows you to turn over more cards faster.
Yeah, I'm pretty budget most of the time, and this deck was more budget than most. I was able to get every card under $4 CAD (with most much less), and the total for all the cards I didn't own was under $40 CAD.
What's the usual play for Auratouched Mage/Boonweaver Giant? I'm assuming Flickerform is the main option once you've got the mana. I'm just running Auratouched because I already had a copy, but I'll pick up a Boonweaver if it works out well.
One minor change after playing it this evening -- Pariah is a do-nothing card in Two-Headed Giant (what we play most of the time), so I replaced it with Mask of Avacyn, partly because I already had a copy, partly because I am desperate for more hexproof.
I would cut Empyrial Storm. The card is okay, but probably not worth such a high mana slot.
I think Hero of Iroas is much more important.
Pretty sure you want Retether in there somewhere.
Myriad Landscape is fine, but I think you want more than 2 mana rocks. I think Mind Stone should be in the deck.
You probably want Flickering Ward, but I know it is old border.
Maybe Open the Armory to search up an umbra or a swiftfoot boots?
