For a long time, I have thought about how many cards exist that are very powerful but are banned and are very cheap. I recently had the idea of a format with every card under $5 legal. I decided to also make Lotus Petal and Lotus Bloom to allow more quick combos like vintage. Here are some of the more powerful cards that would be legal in such a format:
Izzet Delver Deck
Gameplan: Play Delver, Play Young Pyromancer, Play Spells, Swing for Lethal. (You know what Izzet Delver does)
Total Price: $120
Regular Format Legality: None
Sounds a lot like Penny Dreadful except 5 and under. Would cards get the ban-hammer once enough people bought them and they exceeded 5 dollars?

STOP using "dude/bro" as a pejorative or insult. Grow up.
Margaret Thatcher: “The problem with socialism is that you eventually run out of other people's money.”
Benjamin Franklin: "Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety."
Martin Luther King Jr.: "I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character."

Just looking at this list I see some pretty busted combos just waiting to be made into decks (Tinker).
Please post thoughts about this format or decks/ideas. (You can skip sideboards as there is no meta yet)
