As an unspoken rule, most of the deserts from Amonkhet block are not good in Commander.

This deck does not care.

Titania, Protector of Argoth will mourn just as much for your sac-happy deserts as for any other land, so why not take advantage of it with this budget build? Cards like Cradle of the Accursed and Grasping Dunes can be sacrificed and recurred turn after turn with the commander or other cards in the deck. Deserts provide lots of utility for what they are, allowing you to gather zombies, ping small guys, or buff important creatures (Hashep Oasis + Pathbreaker Ibex sounds good to me). From Realm Seekers to Ulvenwald Hydra, this deck has loads of ways to tutor for specific lands, so you should never have trouble finding the deserts you need!

Speaking of hydras, we're not shy on big creatures, either. With the aforementioned two, along with Rampaging Baloths, Terastodon, and Centaur Vinecrasher, we can swing the day home under a Whispersilk Cloak if the need arises. We've even got Ramunap Hydra, because we have to run at least one of the new Deserts Matter cards, and those are some juicy keywords.

If one big creature isn't enough, try Liege of the Tangle, Overwhelming Stampede, and Pathbreaker Ibex on for size. The latter two even combine well with a plethora of other land animation effects, like Rude Awakening and Natural Affinity, and token generators like Rampaging Baloths. Unfortunately Avenger of Zendikar is a little out of budget here, but it's a very significant upgrade to consider.

To leave on a thematically janky note, we have a fun little life gain loop with Claws of Gix (also a generally good source of elementals with Titania), Pulse of Murasa, and Eternal Witness (or Skullwinder for the more politically inclined). It's by no means infinite, but it can be a nice little way to do some pillow forting or get on your way to recurring something important. Happy sifting!
