You like card draw my friend? Well, have I got the deck for you...

Arjun is the perfect commander for you if you love to draw cards. With any luck you'll be able to draw through your entire library multiple times per game. You've taken so much time to painstakingly select each card in your deck, shouldn't you get to play them all?

This is a budget (Kind of?) Arjiun deck for anyone wanting to play this commander without breaking the bank. This deck is probably about 90% complete, but finishing it needs stuff like Mana Drain (I put a some of the cards I could add over in the maybeboard, use your discretion to judge if you need them based on your playgroup's meta), so it'll be a bit more expensive. I know that there are compromises, but that's kind of the point.

This list is getting more expensive over time as I'm using this to keep track of my current version of the deck. As I add cards and upgrade it the price is just going up, it's no longer exactly a "Budget" deck IMO.

In general you want to lay low and attract as little attention as possible, play passive or play politics whatever you want. This deck can win the game instantly by pinging all your opponents to death with Psychosis Crawler or milling out with Lab man. No need to draw any attention when not necessary.

To be in a favourable position you want to have either Archive / Thought Reflection ahead of curve, or Arjun / Mindmoil. If you get both, then say hello infinite card draw (at least as long as your mana holds out). From then on just play what comes up, you (usually) only get 1 spell per hand so not much planning possible.

Winning

So, you know how to win with the deck. but how do you get from turn 1 to there? Well, that's not for me to say. Honestly there is no way to know how this deck will play out. The mechanic that drives the deck (Mindmoil) won't let you keep anything around for more than 1 hand, you wheel your hand with every spell so there's not much you can do to plan ahead. I've tuned the deck to what my playgroup's meta is, so take my word for what you will. I've made plenty of changes to how this deck plays, but it's really open to what you want to do with it.

tl;dr

Play as you go, improvise it. There's no way to predict what is coming in your draws so just go with it. Embrace your inner Izzet mage, and wheel like your life depends on it. If you ever get down to no cards, or very few in hand you are basically dead in the water. Good luck, and have fun!
