You may look into desperate stand and rouse the mob as options for triggering the heroics. Prophetic Flamespeaker is also a great choice and plays very nicely with phalanx leader.

Comments are welcome and appreciated!

Still, Exodd makes a pretty valid point. You can benefit this deck while making kiln unblockable with aqueous form. Then swing him every turn for massive damage and a scry! I would drop 2 sigiled starfish (aqueous for the scry instead) and 1 goblin electromancer (most of your instants are 2 drops anyway, so multiples of him would be redundant on the field) to have 3 aqueous.

Hey, I made a nice midrange stompy deck that has won quite a few rounds already- wanted to see if you could convert to budget for a buddy of mine that wants to play with similar style! Standard preferably.

Also, would love to hear your thoughts!

Your price is still so low, why not upgrade for pennies on the dollar and go with dissolve instead?

Oh goodness, yes.

Oh dang, the lens is wicked with this!

No problem. Hey, I'm dabbling in EDH as of late and just built a Jhoira deck. Mind checking it out and giving me some feedback when you get time?

In a mid-range deck, he's a must. A */* with trample will scare anyone straight. At under $15, though, it's hard to get him in here. Not sure what he would replace either.

So simple and brutal. The subtle mana ramp with llanowar, elvish mystic, and the archdruid pump this deck out at lightning speeds!

I feel like rancor needs to make an appearance here. Dropping that on the wirewood herald ensures you'll get the desired block and kill that he requires to tutor. Even if only one, it'd be a great introduction for newbies to auras while staying in the price range. Plus it's a reuasable spell in a deck that will easily run out of cards in hand by turn 5.

We're all well aware of that skill set!

Northern- I've recently delved into the EDH world (SO much fun), and recently came across a pretty spectacular challenge for you:
Could you, or would you, build an EDH deck with Brothers Yamakazi as the commander?

Northern. Bro. You HAVE to add a few viridian claws in here. Deathtouch + First Strike + Lure, can I get an amen?

double the tribal, double the fun.

Mirror entity instead of avian changeling? Same mana cost, gives you a buffing ability, and triggers ally abilities. You lose the flying, but I don't think that'd be a substantial issue.

Also, most of your drops are 2-3. With all the triggered abilities, aether vial would be brutal to double down your creatures/disrupt with abilities during opponent's turn. Not sure which cards to take out and make room for it, though.

Thanks for posting! Looks like a fun deck.

You've got room in your sideboard, it's cheap and nasty, you may consider conjurer's closet. Gary twice in one turn, plus you keep him out to do it again? Worm 'em twice? Eh?

In keeping with the spirit of hyper budget, there are a few tweaks I'd want to see with this deck:
-2 more mainboard Ichorclaw Myr. He's SO nasty. No player wants to block him, so they usually will let him through during first few rounds. You can then beef him up a ton before he deals damage and deal massive poison.
-Drop the corrupted conscience, emphasize unblockable by adding a couple artful dodges. You should be done desolating them by the time you'd need to take one of their creatures anyway.
-Phytoburst, phytoburst, phytoburst. Since you're not running an isochron and have the unblockables, phytoburst is HUGE. I'd play phytoburst over hunt the hunter all day long.
-I'd consider dropping cystbearer for llanowar elves or elvish mystic. Mana ramp is crucial in this deck to get your threats out and moving before they have too much of a chance to respond. You already have plenty of infect threats, I don't think cystbearer is necessary.
-Finally, I'd sideboard a few contagion clasps. If they are pretty readily keeping you from dealing damage (fog and what-not), it can be the slow burn that you need to manage their control. Along with steady progress and viral drake, you never have to deal damage again to finish them up.

Great start to the deck. Hope my comments help!

Type your deck name...Giant growth was an initial player, but with the other creature beef ups I already had I found it to not be useful during game play. In a hyper budget deck it'd be perfect, though. Checked out your deck, going to post some comments. Thanks!

checked out

Tried checking out your deck, but the link didn't work. That is a fantastic card. I don't know that on turn 3 I want that to be what I'm dropping, though... I'd rather be pumping creatures and poisoning hard. I am positive, however, that in a u/g poison deck that would be unstoppable (especially with blightened agent, holy crap!). Thanks for the input, I am going to sideboard to check it out in test play.

I appreciate the insight. I have always loved noxious revival, will drop a couple lands in my physical deck, add 2 noxious and test it out. Thanks!

Quillspike can be a great addition, especially if they kill your melira. Doesn't provide the infinite loops that Melira can, but it can still deal massive damage early game.

I think that's perfect!
