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

Budget decks are all over the main page, so I decided to make one myself. I know it could be better, but for the price I think it's very effective. This is a control but has some aggro splashed in so you're not left without a defense.

How to Play

Gain control of someone's creatures and using Disciple of Griselbrand, Kheru Bloodsucker, Rite of Consumption or Fling sacrifice the creature for your own gain. You can also use Bazaar Trader to permanently gain control of their creatures/ until you have a means of exploiting it.

Deck discussion for Budget Decks: Control

A silly combo that goes a long with all these "Threaten" effects would be Bazaar Trader. With Trader out when you take temporary control of a creature with a "Threaten" effect you can tap Trader to give you permanent control of the creature. This can be fun and help because it allows you to keep the creature until you have a sac effect if you do not have one right away.

As mentioned above, Threaten-effects are the ones that took my attention while checking out this deck. Temporary control -spells along with sacrifice-effects are cruel combos. Well done!

Thanks! It actually stems from a deck I used to run a few years ago when I first got back into mtg that has since been split into multiple decks, it was basically straight threaten with a ton of kill spells and discarding, people hated me haha.
