Reweave
Instant — Arcane
Target permanent's controller sacrifices it. If he or she does, that player reveals cards from the top of his or her library until he or she reveals a permanent card that shares a card type with the sacrificed permanent, puts that card into play, then shuffles his or her library.

Thank you for the suggestions BrassLord!
The reason why I don't have Polymorph and Proteus Staff, is because if I have a target to Polymorph, it can only be Kaho, Minamo Historian (aside from a Resculpt token, but that is marginal), and at that point, I had the opportunity to tutor Reweave anyway, so unless I'm missing something, those two would be dead cards in the deck!
The turns spell idea is pretty interesting, the largest concern that I have is that I don't have many permanents that generate value, so the turn spell by itself could end up underwhelming. I certainly have the mana to support it though, so I'll try it out and play around with it!

Let me start off by saying I hate being mana screwed, that being said, you should cut 2 islands to go down to 38 lands.
Cut Curious Homunculus, Docent of Perfection, Murmuring Mystic, Sphinx of Uthuun and Stormtide Leviathan. Talrand decks don't need creatures. The few good creatures to add are out of your budget. I know you have the polymorph package but the creatures you are getting arent even that good. If you want to make this optimized (even on a budget), replace them with the 5 following cards....
- Rapid Hybridization - Removal
- Essence Scatter - Counter
- Wizard's Retort - Or another counterspell
- Pongify - Removal
- Deep Analysis - Draw. Bonus points if you yell DEEP ANAL!
REMEMBER, the biggest issue with Talrand is being forced to tap out! Keep this in mind for below...
Cut Coat of Arms for Coastal Piracy - Winmore. Helps you if you have lots of drakes, otherwise its a dead card that can help opponents. Piracy helps you maintain gas.
Cut Heraldic Banner for Mind Stone - Doesnt help you bring talrand out any faster and the boost is minor. Stone brings talrand out T3 and replaces itself later.
Cut Arcane Melee for Gilded Lotus - Helps opponents, forces you to tap out and you don't need that kind of ramp. Lotus helps you ramp without tapping you out.
Cut Gravitational Shift for Misdirection - Shift is winmore. Misdirection allows you to interact while tappedout making opponents think twice before trying to remove your talrand. Note that misdirection can redirect removal, counter counterspells (should you not be the only blue player) and redirect some extra turn spells
For the 2 lands you cut, add Isochron Scepter and Future Sight - Scepter is just pure value (remember to make sure to have mana open to cast the imprinted spell AND another counterspell in hand to ensure they don't bait your counterspell!). Future sight, while redundant to Precognition Field , is very powerful. I understand it costs 1 more and reveals the card, but it allows you to play lands and everyone knows you are counterspell + draw tribal so it really doesn't matter. I would tell you to cut the field for future sight, but I think both might serve your deck well.
Cut Unsummon for Mystic Confluence - Confluence draws you cards and is more versatile.
Cut Boomerang for Capsize - Very powerful card, do not underestiamte it, and ALWAYS try to buy it back.
Cut Island (3rd island to cut) for Strip Mine / Ghost Quarter / Tectonic Edge , etc.... Cavern of Souls , Boseiju, Who Shelters All , urborg, coffers, field of the dead are all powerful cards that need to be dealt with.
Cut Island for Blast Zone - While it comes in tapped, it allows you to deal with problematic cards that resolve because you can't counter everything.
Cut the polymorph package aside from polymorph itself
Cut Mass Polymorph for Narset's Reversal - Oh no, you cast Thought Distortion ? What ever will I do.... get's around can't be countered. What's better than countering their Torment of Hailfire ? Copying it and returning it back!
Cut Reweave for Precognitive Perception - Not entirely sold on it, but it has strong potential, especially for a budget player.
Be sure to let me know what you think of the sugge

great list! im shocked i didnt know Reweave existed, the polymorph line is crazy here!! i wouldnt even know what to suggest, besides Bag of Holding which synergizes well with all the looting.

Hey dude, I the way you are. I've also built my own Polymorph check it out for any ideas Saheeli Poymorph. Also I'm not such a bastard to play blightsteel, specialy cos I have some haste givers.
Recommendations:
- Proteus Staff
- Retrofitter Foundry Awesome card, and great for poly
- Faerie Conclave
- Reweave
- Mass Polymorph
Good luck pal!

CrimsonChaos - not technically true, though, in effect, this will almost always be the case.
Auras only target when they are cast, so, if you cast the aura targetting Fblthp, the Lost , Fblthp, the Lost will be shuffled into your library (or placed in the command zone if he is your commander and you choose to apply the replacement effect).
But only aura spells target--auras do not. If you cheat the aura onto the battlefield directly, so it enters as a permanent, you are allowed to attach the aura to a legal object for it to enchant. This process does not target, so would get around Fblthp, the Lost 's ability. Practically, this would never happen if Fblthp, the Lost was your commander--the only viable option you would have is Reweave , which involves chance and isn't worth playing in the first place.
As Last_Laugh already covered, phasing will not cause Fblthp, the Lost 's ability to trigger, so it would not be ideal regardless.

Reweave is an arcane polymorph (that can polymorph tibalt into nicol bolas if that gives ideas). Myr Battlesphere is also a pretty good budget bomb.

Hi. Looks like I posted after you on Commander Deck Help. The thought police will get me if I don't post card recommendations on your deck.
- I'm not sure what Teferi, Temporal Archmage is doing here. Maybe it has some hidden purpose or broken combo I just don't see, but if that's not the case, I would cut that for Proteus Staff.

Scrolling through the comments, it seems like you want to avoid Felidar Guardian. I think this deck would make a great Eldrazi- Hey, wait, hear me out. Aminatou gives topdeck control. She can also blink things. Her ultimate is garbage. All in all, not bad. I think you could take a nice little polymorph route on this. I like free Eldrazi. You should too. Just look through these cards, and tell me what you think.
- Mass Polymorph
- Polymorph
- Proteus Staff
- Reweave
- Riptide Shapeshifter
- Synthetic Destiny
- Kozilek, Butcher of Truth
- Emrakul, the Promised End
- Void Winnower
- It That Betrays
- Blightsteel Colossus
- Ulamog, the Ceaseless Hunger
- Ulamog, the Infinite Gyre
...that would be your endgame. For the early and midgame:
- Noxious Gearhulk
- Meddling Mage, depending on your meta
- Duplicant
- Champion of Wits
- Riverwise Augur
- Sawtooth Loon
- Bone Shredder
- Big Game Hunter
- Nekrataal
- Ovinomancer
- Ravenous Chupacabra
- Lyev Skyknight
- Counterspells
So, your gameplan would be to play Aminatou on T3, play creatures that kill things/draw cards when they enter, blink them with Aminatou repeatedly to kill opponent's things, draw into counterspells, and generally destroy their will to live. Once you have a comfortable lock, +1 Aminatou and put an eldrazi titan on top, polymorph a draw creature into it.
