Budget Decks: Ach! Hans, run!

by NorthernWarlord on 07 May 2014

Main Deck (60 cards)

Sideboard (0 cards)

No sideboard found.

The owner of this deck hasn't added a sideboard, they probably should...

Submit a list of cards below to bulk import them all into your sideboard. Post one card per line using a format like "4x Birds of Paradise" or "1 Blaze", you can even enter just the card name by itself like "Wrath of God" for single cards.


Deck Description

Are you bored? Does Magic: The Gathering feel old and vapid? Got any useless bucks in your bank account? Ladies and Gentlemen, I have solution.
Use your bank account on nearest MtG marketplace website and buy some cheap cards, craft a deck, and challenge your friends! To double the fun, ask your friend to create such a deck too!
The Budget Decks -series is meant for your free time! These are meant to inspire you, and deck's value is meant to be low! (Between 10 and 20 bucks.)

How to Play

Inspired by Murderhood.
Well, this is kinda weird deck. It is trying to be Lhurgoyf-tribal, but it has only 8 Lhurgoyfs, so I guess it is not... It kinda became dredge...
But anyways, I'll let you hear the story how this thing goes. First of all, get as many dredge-cards as possible right there into your graveyard. Then, try to dredge as much as possible. Get as many creatures in your graveyard as you can.
When you've got both one Lhurgoyf (or in this case, Mortivore goes well too,) and Dread Return in your graveyard, try to sacrifice three creatures in order to get lhurgoyf back from the dead.

Deck discussion for Budget Decks: Ach! Hans, run!

lol 'not again' - Hans XD
Some suggestions though:
1. Elixir of Immortality. Sure, it might seem counterintuitive, but if this deck goes against a mill deck, it might prove troublesome. This can be sideboarded though :)
2. Reassembling Skeleton. You can kill him as many times as you want, and he will still come back. Replace rotting rats?
3. Some mana ramp with Mulch and Satyr Wayfinder; and search with Grisly Salvage XD
4. Corpse Connoisseur is a great search card that fills up your grave.

Have fun XD

Ghoultree? That would be good...
Except I'm gonna mill it almost every time...
But who cares!

Reassembling Skeletons kindof go against the spirit of this deck. And while Rotting Rats my place creatures into the grave, their Unearth part also has bad synergy with the theme of the deck since Unearth ultimately exiles them (I don't see a sacrifice outlet). Lotleth Troll is what this deck really wants instead. It should be cheap enough meanwhile to fit in a budget deck, specially considering how strong he would be in this.

Worm Harvest is nice but since it produces tokens and isn't a creature itself, it doesn't really contribute.

Since you are VERY dependant on your graveyard and since many players these days (at least the experienced) run cards to mess with your graveyard I recommend something like Ground Seal to protect it.

Your main problem would be that Lhurgoyfs may be fat but lack trample. Jarad, Golgari Lich Lord would be a nice finisher for this deck because he can just fling the Hansruns at your opponent's head. But I don't know if Jarad is budget enough for you.
Also, SPLINTERFRIGHT would be the prime creature to add to this deck because it has the Lhurgoyf ability (at least one half of it), tramples AND mills you at the same time! He is even cheaper than regular Lhurgoyf. He is an elemental, though, don't know if that makes a difference. If you add Splinterfright, you can cut the Moldervine Cloak (Splinterfirght also mills and the Cloak's main ability isn't that useful in here because all it does is making creatures bigger even though they are already big enough)

You run the risk of milling yourself. Loaming Shaman is a nice way to shuffle back your graveyard into your library but leaving your creatures where they are.

If you like the advice I give, please check out my decks. I currently need help on "Down with the Sickness", "Can't touch this" and "Phantom Menace".

I really love how this deck works. It's a great inspiration :D

After looking at yours I just had to make one similar to it, with a few changes especially to sorcery. I'm a beginner so yours probably works better.
