The Eldrazi killed her friends, a lot of them, and instead of going out and making new amigos she just asked a bunch of changelings to copy her dead buddies' likenesses. She's interesting like that.

This is my attempt at a budget, ally-less ally deck. Focusing almost entirely on tribal synergies... every... single... one.

Battleplan: Get changelings, get synergies, try not to get wiped out in the most sweeper heavy format, and then win.

Lords/ Boss Monsters:

Brass Herald : The perfect lord, even if he is a tad expensive for a 2/2.

Diregraf Captain: Oh captain my... sorry...

Drogskol Captain : Hexpoof go all your opponent's removal spells.

Goblin Warchief : If it's played in legacy it has to be good elsewhere... right?

Lord of the Unreal: Metrosexual protector man... everyone's favorite superhero.

Lovisa Coldeyes: Caucasian She-Hulk SMAAAAASH

Mad Auntie : I had a joke for this one I swear... something to do with in-laws and thanksgiving... give me a sec.

Reaper King: Look at that art, that stat-line, that text box, that mana cost, that aaaughgblghglbg- incoherent drooling noises.

Sunrise Sovereign: Buff Pirate Gandalf, 'nuff said.

Utility:

Azami, Lady of Scrolls: Tap dudes, draw cards. Which in turn are more dudes which tap for more cards.

Gilt-Leaf Archdruid : Free card draw seems sweet, a doubly-strong Ajani Vengeant effect seems, not surprisingly, doubly so.

Higure, the Still Wind: Dude-tutor, Multi-purpose evasion engine, ninja.

Horde of Notions: Fat, Fast reanimation engine, totally kickass.

Lin Sivvi, Defiant Hero : Mrs. Tutor herself, she's like General Tazri's canon long lost sister, so that's neat.

Lullmage Mentor : Our one anti-wipe tool, because all the other options cost >$8.

Mirror Entity RAAAAAAAAAAAMPAAAAGE!!!!!

Rotlung Reanimator/ Xathrid Necromancer: Okay, technically counter-wipe tools 2 and 3, but.. shhhhhhhhh.

Seahunter : He's a card-fetching value engine and a prick. I love him.

Wirewood Savage : More cards, more happy, more good times.

Wort, Boggart Auntie : Hehe... Wort.

Always looking for comments and suggestions, trying to keep the budget at $50.
