Thanks for your feedback.
I made a few revisions to make the deck run smoother but that came with added costs.
I took this version to locals and I got decent results, here is the current decklist.
I was running Spirebluff Canal instead of Sulfur Falls but Sulfur is getting a reprint in Dominaria which should make it the more budget option if your reading this post Dominaria. Would love to hear your thoughts.
Hi Everyone,
I am a fairly new magic player when it comes to competitive formats such as modern, and I have decided to get in without straining my wallet.
I really like storm as a deck, but the current version is too far out of my budget for me to dip my feet into the modern format.
So, I brew up this little budget storm shell that uses Epic Experiment to hopefully hit one of my Bombs and combo off.
I can stall for time to establish another Epic Experiment combo by hitting a Beacon of Tomorrows with Epic Experiment and copying it with my Copy Cards.
The main goal like most storm decks is to play Grapeshot after a long combo, just in this version I use one of my Bombs to pump up that storm count.
I proxy tested this deck in a casual setting and it works well, I'm not playing any izzet non-basic lands because of budget reasons and because not many mana problems came up during testing.
I just want some opinions of cards to add or remove and some cheap sideboard cards to use, I would also like your opinion if this deck can hold its own at a LGS Modern Event before I shell out money to buy it.
I'm a student so my funds are mainly spent on school stuff so its nice to have Magic as a hobby when it doesn't break budget.
My Budget is about $80 usd, but a lot of cards are marked up in us pricing, because I live in Australia.
Thanks for Visiting and Hope you have a Great Day!
