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

So, you have chance to get 13/13 as early as turn 2. How? Let me tell you.

-Your starting hand must be:
-4x or 3x Ornithopters, Phyrexian Walkers and/or Memnites.
-2x or 1x Elite Vanguards and/or Suntail Hawks.
(There must total of 5 creatures.)
-1x Plains
-1x Quest for the Holy relic

Start the game by playing Plains and Quest for the Holy Relic. Then play all creatures from your hand that you can.
On your second turn, cast Elite Vanguards and/or Suntail Hawks. If you have all the five counters on your Quest for the Holy Relic, attack with ALL OF YOUR CREATURES THAT ARE ABLE TO ATTACK. (Including Phyrexian Walkers and Ornithopters.)
Then, if any of your creatures get through, quickly sacrifice Quest for the Holy Relic in attempt to seek Elbrus from your library, attach it to any unblocked creature, then laugh maniac laugh.
Congratulations. You have 13/13 flying, trample, intimidate demon on your second turn.

If you somehow fail in attempt to use your Elbrus-techinque, don't feel sad. You still have a chance of victory with this equipment-deck!

Deck discussion for Budget Decks: Turn 2 13/13?

I would replace Suntail Hawk with Glint Hawk since it could potentially add more quest counters to your Quest.

Actually, that's a good idea.

I really like how well this base translates into a non budget deck as well. It's nice to see a budget deck that someone could also build on without having to start spending much, much more.

Thanks for the inspiration! I hope you don't mind that I stole some ideas here for a $37 version

I know it it's kind of minor, but how about 4x Gitaxian Probe ?
it increases your chance to get the combo going for just 2 life :D
PS: Love the deck!!

Opinions:
Drop all the other equipment except fireshrieker. Drop the enchantments.
+4 Gitaxian probes, +4 Signal Pest, +2 Glint Hawk, +1 Memnite, +2 Judge's Familiar

If you insist on other wincons drop the Vanguard add in Trepanation Blade, Pennon Blade, or Ogre's Cleaver.

No. This is supposed to be an equipment deck, with alternative 13/13 winning condition.
-So, equipments are here to stay.

I'm not sure... It's already over the budget and after all, it is just an alternative victory condition.
