Darkshadow327 on Judgment Day: Avacyn the Purifier EDH [REDUX]

Personally I'd say:

• Relic Seeker : Unless you can reliably get damage through with it I'm not sure how often you will tutor with it.

• Assemble the Legion : While a super fun card, I'm not sure how well it synergizes. While yes, it can be a win-con because of the tokens, it seems too slow to be able to kill a whole table with it.

I can't think of a third, but this is my 2 cents

Osbert on First Draft Bruna aura

Re looking at this deck it seems really sweet. I feel like haste is really important for Bruna because getting the first swing in to protect her with shroud/hexproof or reanimation is really important. Lightning greaves does this the best with a 0 mana equip cost and Bruna's effect gets around shroud. (so cards like Diplomatic Immunity, Greater Auramancy (a other huge hit to the wallet...), and Protective Bubble have good value)

I'd warrant running tutors just to find lightning greaves so it is a consistant game plan. Steelshaper's Gift, Open the Armory, and Relic Seeker are good budget options and Enlightened Tutor and Stoneforge Mystic the non budget.

Lots of good advice and options above, but I'll chime in anyway!

First, a shameless plug of my own Sunforger deck! Super Smash Boros | Firesong & Sunspeaker EDH

Notable ones already mentioned:

• Tithe
• Teferi's Protection
• Deflecting Palm: biggest "gotcha" card ever
• Enlightened Tutor: not only does it get Sunforger, you can can also get it with Sunforger
• Boros Charm

Options that I don't think were mentioned:

• Chaos Warp: good removal.
• Dawn Charm: flexible fog.
• Settle the Wreckage: havn't had much succes with this personally, but it's an option.
• Argivian Find: good to get some recursion, especially if sunforger get's blown up.
• Dispatch: basically a better swords to plowshares in an artifact deck.
• Intimidation Bolt: good for stopping attacks that you don't want to happen(think Narset, Jeleva, Etali triggers).
• Price of Progress: Most damage for 2 mana you'll get. In the late game it becomes fantastic.
• Sulfurous Blast: another wipe option.
• Rootborn Defenses: protection, populate.

Other sunforger support cards you might want:

• Relic Seeker: Cheap tutor
• Auriok Windwalker: re-equip shenanigans.
• Auriok Steelshaper: smaller equip cost.
• Sculpting Steel: more sunforger!
• Masterwork of Ingenuity: EVEN MORE SUNFORGER!
• Brass Squire: re-equip shenanigans.
• Sigarda's Aid: flash it in, free equip.

And of course you might want your Sram, Senior Edificer and Puresteel Paladin and Danitha Capashen, Paragon. All that fun stuff.

Hope some of this helps!

Here are a few cards you could consider for your Sunforger Package Crackling Doom, Kolaghan's Command, Hide / Seek, Wear / Tear, and Utter End.

Steelshaper's Gift and Relic Seeker are both really cost effective ways to get the equipment you're looking for. You could also run Masterwork of Ingenuity to double up on a good equipment.

Brass Squire is a cheap way to get past equipment costs.

Akiri, Line-Slinger, Kari Zev, Skyship Raider, and Swiftblade Vindicator are cheap minions that hold weapons very well.

I agree with what sagramore is saying, pick a theme with how you want to construct your deck and go from there. From the comments and the way you want to go, which is going wide than stick to anthem like effects and equipments that will help you build your army and ramp.

Since you said you are on a tight budget I'll list some cards that are less than $5 that might be able to help you out.

Rampant Growth, Cultivate, Farseek, Faith's Reward, Wrath of God, Hunter's Insight, Relic Seeker, Auriok Steelshaper, Steelshaper Apprentice, Angel of Jubilation, Remember the Fallen, Cathars' Crusade, Behemoth Sledge, Qasali Pridemage, Leonin Warleader, Prowling Serpopard, Reclamation Sage, and Krosan Grip.

Hope some of the cards listed would be able to help you out!

Hey, well constructed budget Commander deck. I'm confused though the main deck here is low budget, but the maybeboard is not? In fact the small amount of cards in the maybeboard are worth more than the entire main deck? If you want to play voltron consider a lot more equipments and cards that give bonuses to equipment? Voltron is a good secondary strategy with the main strategy of having many attack phases with Aurelia.

Consider these budget cards for more voltron (in no order):

• Sigarda's Aid
• Sram, Senior Edificer
• Balan, Wandering Knight
• Mother of Runes
• Silverblade Paladin
• Relic Seeker
• Kemba, Kha Regent
• Brass Squire
• Steelshaper Apprentice


• Mask of Memory
• Sword of Vengeance
• Loxodon Warhammer
• Bloodforged Battle-Axe
• O-Naginata
• Helm of Kaldra
• Shield of Kaldra
• Sword of Kaldra

An alternative for the very expensive price Swords (Sword of Feast of Famine, Sword of Fire and Ice, etc) are the three less expensive price Kaldra equipments. Obviously these are not as good as the Swords, but they're still powerful equipments and can get all three for less than half the price of one Sword. When you get all three into play they can combine to make a 4/4 creature and attach all three Kaldra equipments to it.

For the manabase consider:

• Needle Spires
• Ghost Quarter
• Slayers' Stronghold
• Sunhome, Fortress of the Legion
• Inspiring Vantage
• Rugged Prairie

Good luck with your deck.

I know this page isn't up to date but here's what I'd do:

I would add Mind's Eye 100%. I think a Sun Titan and Armageddon would be worth it. The expensive Equipment cards become better with more focus, like Puresteel Paladin. I'm not sold on Leonin Shikari for such a creature-light deck.

Speaking of which, Relic Seeker might be worth it to quickly get the boots or Hammer of Nazahn or something.

Maybe swap Disenchant with Forsake the Worldly in case you need the draw? Return to Dust is the obvious upgrade. Duelist's Heritage is nice because it isn't an aura and has funny political value on other peoples' turns.

I'm thinking that you should perhaps plan on a more late-game strategy--i.e. more expensive Equipments with bigger bonuses. Seems that the quick win is only viable in 1v1. Perhaps you may want to keep the deck 1v1 only?

I might add Prowler's Helm, Blackblade Reforged, Darksteel Plate (cheaper than ever--I don't think you can get enough Indestructible), maybe a Basilisk Collar or Quietus Spike.

I would say drop Armored Ascension, Ethereal Armor (maybe), Serra's Embrace, Unquestioned Authority, Mesa Enchantress, Umbra Mystic, Helm of the Gods. That should open up room for more artifact synergy or more interaction (removal). I'm not sold on Piston Sledge, Hero's Blade, Vorrac Battlehorns, Tenza, Godo's Maul, Ring of Thune.
