Deck Description

The primary reason to call this deck budget is the lack of two-three moxen. Though they would be a great improvement, I'd say this fares alright on its own.

Please, comment and suggest by all means.

Hey there ,

I just saw your deck and because your on budget I wont even talk about Mox opal ...

BUT what I will tell you about is these card man !

Glint Hawk perfect timing can be powerful for untaping ... Mox ... Memnite ?
Glint Hawk Idol greeat for Tempered Steel suprise defence 4/4
The Contested Warzone land !

I was running a tempered steel and I was winning aroud turn 4 so I have seen some card that you should take out

Like the Hero its really slowing you down maybe in side deck but normally you win when you CAN SUMMON the Hero
The Day in a side deck
Myrsmith is not that good since its slow you down too

And im not sure about that but since I havnt play with I cannot tell : Mikaeus can be good but a turn 3 activated abilities CAN be helpfull ... I dunno

But anyways hope I help you !

Hi, thanks for comments!
I've been pondering all the cards you mentioned and I've yet to make my mind. The reason for not including Glint Hawks is the lack of Moxen and Ornithopters from previous standard Tempered/Hawkward. They're still pretty decent with Spellbombs and other 1 cmc artifacts, but I'd rather manage without.
I'm running 4 Inkmoths and that's why I decided to ditch Warzones. It's crucial to get Tempered Steel out and they're not worth the risk.

I've got to playtest this more to see whether Bladeholds are worth their while, I agree they're the most awkward cards here. On the other hand I like how the Smith works with Spellbombs, memnites, Skirges and other 1 cmc cards but I guess I'll just have to see.

The DOJs are my brainfarting, they're obviously supposed to be in the side deck and Dismembers belong to the main :S.
I took a peek at your similar deck and I've got to admit it's pretty darn fast. Might be I'll take mine to the sam direction.
